For a job?

the reason being “too socialist” and “not in America’s Meta’s best interests”.

You don’t have to be autistic to have a sensory preference, but autism is known to be associated with sensory sensitivity

It’s because fries are extra on the adult menu

I was about to say the same, but then realized that none of the entrees include fries. $14 for a burger and fries is not unexpected at your average sports bar, but without fries for a plain Jane burger? I don’t know what the market is like in LA …

But $12 for four strips of bacon is outrageous, and $5 for this cookie is a slap in the face

Served with a side of fries

Maybe?

I don’t care how it’s “supposed” to be pronounced. You’ll never get me to say it “Gooey-den”, no matter how hard you try!

Higher pressure decreases the relative volume of the gas, increasing its density and reducing its buoyancy. What you need is extra voluminous farts in an otherwise nearly empty, low pressure digestive tract.

The molar mass of elemental nitrogen is 14, not 7. However, its equilibrium state in our atmosphere is as N2 which has a molar mass of 28.

I want it entered into the public record.

Shhhhhh! You’ll jinx it!

Edit-preface: I am not a grammarian. I don’t know what the technical names for the different types of “to” are or if they are even recognized as distinct by experts in the field.

English is does indeed use “go” to mean “go do a thing”, but not with directional “to” (as in “go to the library”).

“Go run!”, “Go running”, “I’m going running”, and “I’m going to run” are all valid uses. (In that last case, the “to” is not a directional “to”, but is actually part of the infinitive verb “to run”, as in “I want to run”). However, you wouldn’t say “Go to run!” to tell someone to run.

“Go to run” could make sense with a causal “to” (“Go, in order that you might run”) but that separates “go” and “run” in to separate actions. Causal “to” is the “to” in “push to open” and “press F to pay respects” this is not the “to” in “go to sleep”

“Go to sleep” feels like it is in the directional sense, like “go to bed”

Edit: Now you’ve got me thinking. “Go to sleep” and “go to bed” are a little unusual . “Go to [location]“ without an article is usually reserved for proper nouns or pronouns (“Go to France”, “go to Curicó”, “go to Walmart”, “go to John“ “go to her”). When the location is a general noun, you usually use an article or a proper/pro-noun in the possessive form (“go to a restaurant”, “go to the party”, “go to Bob’s house”, “go to your room”). So what makes “bed” and “sleep” so special? The only other case I can think of at the moment is “go to ground” and that is different because it is an idiom, and the rule for idioms is “they mean what they mean”

Edit-edit: meals don’t use an article either: “to lunch”, “to dinner”, “to breakfast”.

Edit-edit-edit: AAAAAH! It applies to some other prepositions too: “in bed”, “at lunch”; but not “under the bed”. What is going on‽

Edit-edit-edit-edit: Causal “to” might be a use of the infinitive case?

Edit-edit-edit-edit-edit: “go to work” does not use an article either.

Whoops! Slip of the thumb. Thanks for catching that. I was thinking “administrators of the Executive branch” and it morphed before I got it out.

Now and in his last term. It’s coming to a head now because of all the judicial appointments that McConnell held open in the Obama years.

“Judges”

I say that in “scare quotes” because they are literally not judges and it is not a court. They are not part of the judicial branch. They are bureaucrats of the administrative Executive branch that started cosplaying a couple decades ago to project an impression of legitimacy and finality.

Oh! The humidity!

Bold of you to assume my floor is level.

I may be misremembering, but wasn’t there a thing 10 3 years ago or so where trains were randomly stopping somewhere in Europe. And I think it turned out to be a remote shutdown from the manufacturer (according to independent investigators. The manufacturer maintains that hackers added that code to their software) due to 3rd party replacement parts or an unrenewed service contract or some other anticompetitive behavior.
