1) Are casseroles a primary food group? => Midwest 2) Was it previously its own country? => Not part of a region, just its own thing (California, Texas, Hawaii) 3) Is it Florida? => only the Northern part is Southern (the rest is a colony of New York/God's Waiting Room)

I tend to ask myself the opposite: “Will I be disappointed in myself if I don’t do <x>?” (and then end up proud of myself when I do it) Asked myself this very question on the diving board yesterday and it was the final push to go for an old skill I haven’t done in years!

working on making our site more international in terms of how we talk about pricing & spelling/wording… and hitting a major snag: Finding alternatives to words with the S/Z problem is literally impossible for one of our key words - “address standardization” 🤯🤯🤯 standardiszation? 🤪
