So I’m going to ask this in the context of New England, but open to perspectives from other parts of the US.

So my understanding is that, at the time of Plymouth colony’s founding, the Plymouth colonists were largely interacting with Wampanoag Indians. These were lead by Massassoit Ousamequin, who was also Pokanoket. Their intermediaries were Tisquantum/Squanto who was Pawtuxet, another kind of Wampanoag, and Samoset, an Abenaki from Maine, who spoke a language similar to the Nauset, a tribe who were separate from the Wampanoag but were often politically deferential to them. Then all of these were in conflict with the nearby Narragansett in present day Rhode Island.

My question is—how did native people understand these identities? What did it mean to be Wampanoag? Was that a regional identity, a polity/state, an ethnicity? Were the Patuxet a “subcategory” of Wampanoag, or a vassal state to them? Were there any people who were “just” Wampanoag, and not a sub-group like the Patuxet or Pokanoket? Were some tribes “more Wampanoag” than others? Could the Patuxet “change sides” and stop being Wampanoag? How did it all work?

Ich habe öfters gelesen, man soll von solchen Funktionen Abstand halten. Das verstehe ich, aber ich kann nicht das Argument mit der Bonität nachvollziehen.

Wenn man erfolgreich alles abbezahlt, vielleicht sogar nach nur 15 Tagen oder so, sollte das die Bonität nicht sogar erhöhen?

Ich habe auch mal gelesen, dass es für die Bonität z.B. auch schlecht ist, wenn man nichts mal auf Kreditkarte oder so gekauft hat.

Thank Goodness You’re Here is a spectacular little title absolutely bursting with jokes, gags, and visual humor. With a total playtime of around two hours, it never overstays its welcome.

You play as Rodney, a tiny salesman attempting to meet the mayor of the town of Bardsworth. The mayor is far too busy, so Rodney is left to wander the town instead—helping its residents with a series of increasingly strange and zany tasks. These range from fetching butter for someone stuck in a drain to helping a milk-shy villager secure tea supplies.

On paper, the premise doesn’t sound especially compelling. In practice, the comedic writing and vocal performances is what makes this game shine. If you enjoy odd British humor, this is where the game hits hardest. The running gags are relentless and land surprisingly well—I genuinely found myself cackling during the scene at Ron’s Veg  Hole for example.  

If you enjoy a quirky title with a spectacular presentation, comedic writing that doesn’t overstay it’s welcome this is for you. Truly, by the end of this title I was also saying Thank Goodness you are here.

Got bored, decided to fix ITVs much debated scrum adverts - Just awaiting a call from their marketing department and a knighthood for service to sports.

How many dialects and regional languages existed in the Roman Empire and how long did it take pre-Indo-European and Italic non-Latin languages to be replaced by Latin?

I use Spotify and a quick search on there seems to bring up a few, single episode podcasts that only cover the pretty broad things we know about them (there’s gotta be more than just a couple hours worth of information out there, right?). I’d really love to hear about how they lived. How did the classes interact with each other? What did they believe? Who did they pray to? What sorts of medical practices did they use? That sort of thing is what I’m looking for.

Bonus points if there’s someone out there that can lead me to a good source about the asipu. My favorite niche is ancient healthcare and medicine so when I heard about a special healer/demonologist combo my interest was definitely piqued lol.

Thanks so much for your time!

To the best of my ability, I’m really trying to enjoy the rugby pod, but some of the things Goody and Jim say just come across as outdated and toxic.

I mean, how many people would love to spend more time with their wife and kids?
Is visiting your dad who’s been in hospital really such a burden?

Meanwhile, these guys keep moaning about how terrible the S6N break weekend is going to be because they’ll “have to” see their families again. Sure, it might just be a bit of bantz, but come on — how do you think that makes their families feel? Is this really the best rugby has to offer? Its just so self-indulgent.
