What so many people probably want is homeless having somewhere safe to go and resources to go out of homelessness. They get hostile architechture instead.

Counterpoint: dictators that died in their beds because of course they couldn't be prosecuted under their own regime and have them undergo fair trial. Bonus points if their victims are still alive so they can get some closure. Spain's Franco comes to mind.

Isn't the IQ adjusted to always have an average of 100?

You have (normally) 4 fingers with 3 phalanxes each, plus a fifth one (the thumb) to point at each one of those phalanxes.

This started in the early 2000's already and I remember discussing back then that the customers also treated a 5/10 as "okay" when scoring a place, but would never consider going to an "okay" place when looking for one so the businesses started to beg for higher scores and the threshold fot "okay" kept moving up.

We also use the article for personal names, might as well be a cat or dog.

I don't want to answer a specific user about the name connotations but, isn't the load of a word dependant of the intention? My friends and I call each other whores. And conversely one can use "woman" as a very badly loaded vocative.

For some reason I had to use homebrew and it made me discover FOSS and the terminal. I started switching to GIMP, Scribus and others on Mac and ended up jumping to Linux.

Beware, MacOS was my gateway to Linux.
