Canadian Prime minister Trudeau corrects someone using the word "mankind" to the less offensive "peoplekind"....and faces backlash for 'mansplaining'.

I need milk for a far breton recipe I want to try out but just can't be bothered to get out of my apartment.
And I'm trying to refrain from leaving my apartment just to beat my previous record of not leaving the apartment for two weeks (being a 引き籠り姫；Japanese for hermit); I'm aiming for three weeks!

| Quote: | | | | | Amazon prime has made the shipping time of other online retailers unbearable for me. | | | | | How do you get Amazon Prime to do next/second day delivery to Switzerland? I thought they only offered it in DE and A.
FWP 1: Yet again, Amazon Global sent the 'Package delayed, no idea when it will arrive, sorry not sorry' note. So far they are something like 0 for 20.
FWP 2: Why do I keep paying for expedited Global given their track record? Isn't repeating an action endlessly expecting a different outcome the definition of insanity?

I checked the weather forecast "dry for a couple of days" so I collected the cover and took it home to repair it.
Now my boat is full of snow and frozen hard  | | The following 2 users would like to thank marton for this useful post: | |
