Tragically, the funding was cut in ~~Trump's~~ Schumer's Big Beautiful Bill.

They are concerned, but not concerned enough to risk losing reelection by going on record as being concerned.

I'm playing that game right now, but I think I need to turn up the music volume. I've heard the doom-style music ramp up during fights, but I haven't paid it much attention.

Same, except it's the Doom 2016 OST for me.

Type and compute until it's done!

If I were a Brit I would definitely make it a point to bust out my worst American accent and call it Alumin(no i)um whenever possible.

Oh that's a good one, I can totally hear it in my head!

I'm curious now if there are English words (American or the fancy kind) that non-native speakers commonly over-pronounce when goofing around in a similar way.

What's the phase where the popcorn is gone, so you drag your finger through the salt/butter residue, then lick it off like an animal?

I agree, but at the same time, I wouldn't give up having the contrast between seasons for anything. You need that 92 degrees with 80% humidity to really appreciate the cool down after a thunderstorm. And my absolute favorite time of year is that first chilly week in September that let's you know the heat is behind you--but the frigid cold is on the way.

All things in balance and moderation...
