According to English Wikipedia, they are also known as wapitis and that’s what European languages seem to call them (including mine).

You better be hiding in your pantry, because the creamy cream-free soup is coming for you.
Hard to judge from the photo, but maybe there’s no carpets and the cat doesn’t like the bare floor (might feel unsafe)? Idk just a guess.
Nothing like a potato when you craving for that starch hit.
Ah, you thought I called myself a low effort potato. I’ll have you know that you are not wrong.
No, but I admire the people who can memorize, recall and communicate by using the little pictures without the slightest effort. 😔
Why do people add ‘rule’ after post titles?

“Syndrome of delusional companions is the belief that objects (such as soft toys) are sentient beings.” Wait so does Calvin have this?
But maybe the virus is in the image file? /j
Yes, there have been bows that are long, but not like the longbow. As you say, the longbow was used to shoot volleys, while the yumi could also be used on horseback. The longbow had a very heavy draw weight, around 90-120 lbs. That’s the weight you have to pull to get it at full draw. The yumi possibly had a a lower draw weight (although Korean and Mongolian and Turkish composite bows had draw weights of around 100 lbs as well, and they were mainly used on horseback). Again, the yumi has a shorter lower limb which meant it could be used on horseback (and it was) while there is no way a longbow could have. So the longbow and the yumi are very different technically.
That’s just evil!
In Finland, even former presidents are addressed as President so and so.
If we’re talking about English, there were different kinds of English which were spoken (Old English, Middle English, Early Modern English, and Modern English. And no, Old English doesn’t just mean English that sounds ‘old’. It was an early variety of English that was spoken from the 5th/7th century to 1066). All of them had their own phonology, morphology and syntax. In short, they followed their own linguistic rules and conventions. The way they sounded wasn’t just randomly made up. To find out more, look up the varieties of English I mentioned or take a look at this Wikipedia article about Historical linguistics.
I second that. Fossify also has a whole suite of other apps. It’s a fork from Simple Tools which sold out. Fossify Gallery is awesome and also available on Play Store. Other apps are making their way there. NB! Not connected to Fossify, just a fan of what they’re doing.
TIL. Also, the blog post claims that donkeys can be seen “picking them [coyote] up by the neck and shaking them wildly: possibly causing trauma that can disable or injure”. Woah.
