If you hate billionaires but like steak, have you tried eating the rich?

"Get out to vote" is a direct instruction. It means you personally should go and vote.

"Get out the vote" means you should get everyone else out to vote. "Vote" is being used as a mass noun that you want to make as large as possible -by getting it out and making sure people turn up.

A relationship graph which requires no gay relationships is called a bigraph (honest, I'm not making this up) or bipartite.

That follows because if you can two color the graph so that edges only connect different colors, you just assign male to one color and female to the other.

This means there's a tone of mathematical identities describing this. Wikipedia has a good introduction.

That's just what they want you to think.

I heard that if her white van drops below 30 the cat explodes.

I mean if it was a realistic list around 4 (not sure how many were actually released) of the top ten would be fantastic four films.

This is just a list of "superhero films everyone has seen that were kinda mid". I want a list of the films that were so bad I've not heard of them, because they crashed and burned so spectacularly.

Grammatically, introducing "her" doesn't reduce the ambiguity.

The sentence still could refer to her ordering someone to steal her handbag. E.g. "the crime minister had her partner killed" will almost always refer to a murder for hire.

"The crime minister's bag was stolen" is less ambiguous. But it's English, everything is going to be a bit vague.

Probably for the same reason we write -1 for the first integer below zero, but 1 instead of +1 for the first one above.

It might be more consistent to write more, but we're lazy and everyone knows what it means.

He fucked up dropping out as well as everything else. People can still vote 🪱 in a bunch of states.

The original case was just bullshit made up by a bored journalist.

In 2007, an article in the American Psychologist found "no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive".
