Early voters will skew towards the civically engaged, which in turn skews towards the educated and left-leaning. Unfortunately, I can’t take too much confidence in this.

Right! My brain kept saying “Burgundy Bathysphere” but I knew that wasn’t right…

I think the Beatles made one

The OCs, (aka Osees, the Oh Sees, the O.C.s) are a lo-fi psych garage rock band with over a dozen albums. Their sound is unique, but could best be compared to other psychedelic and punk-influenced bands like Witch and Ty Segal.

“Morning sleepyhead, glad you could join us.”

“Goodnight.”

While your instincts may say so, not according to any one of the major style guides (AP, MLA, Chicago, NYT, APA, Columbia). An apostrophe is only added for possessives rather than plurals with acronyms, but a lot of people still add them erroneously. Most sources online will say “don’t do it but some people do by mistake.”

That and, depending on the stylebook you use, some specific words and uppercase letters that could be considered confusing when pluralized, like “Oakland A’s” and “Do’s and Don’ts” (according to AP, while I much prefer Chicago’s guidelines).

Folks should just remember that apostrophes are never used to pluralize. Of course there are like 2 exceptions, but better to be right 98 times out of 100 than guess every time.

To me it feels more like someone has gone out of their way wayyyy further to involve bureaucracy and make it official when just saying “I would rather not” would do.

And I say a plant community is a group of ostensibly indie, bootstrapped musicians who are actually propped up by major labels to sell the image of individuality and independence while having the entire music industry machine behind them.

It’s actually even more unlikely that they would be able to learn how to talk. This guy’s clearly not a very good scientist if he missed that.
