tell me what this kind of store is called where you live! I love to ✨learn✨
I’m highlighting this as numerous tweets mentioned it and its fun translation!
learned from the replies here…
The name given to these stores is usually simply

__adjective__ + store

and the adjectives (roughly translated):

mini/small
variety
convenience
late/evening
corner
tuck
off-premises
Aunt Emma
troubleshoot
dairy
party

Thanks for the education!!
oh I missed more descriptors:
(again these are imprecise)

quick
newsagent
actual name of store owner/operator
oh I have also missed that
store =/= shop

I am learning so much!

NBA Animal Mascots Ranked By How Well They Could Hold A Basketball 🏀

⭐️⭐️Can Definitely Hold ⭐️⭐️

Grizzlies
Raptors

⭐️Only in Their Mouth⭐️

Pelicans

Only If They Pierce with Talons/Teeth

Hawks
Timberwolves

*Maybe* With Unusual Hoof Dexterity

Bucks
Bulls
I understand some teams were named after non-animals but then gave themselves a *supplemental animal mascot* but I did not include them.
I am sorry that does not count
Yes I have seen the latest renderings of raptors and I think they could do it.

I did not include hornets as I do not think they could all get under the ball and flap their little wings, I am sorry.

first time dad here, but this seems incorrect
When I saw this it was in a store in Colorado. I don’t know if that helps give some context to the advice

questions I have whenever I watch a hockey match
1) is that ok
2) is that allowed
3) is pushing fine
4) was that necessary (seems mean)
Allowing players to shove and fight does seem honest though.

In other sports there is pretense, but here the competitors can fight other and then be briefly isolated (to foster introspection)
Ah wow this Vegas game is wild. This is a fun sport! ✨ 🏒 ✨

tips on drawing cats: a thread
many cats have a favorite object that they obsess over and it’s good to give the cat the object and see what they do. this also makes for a more personalized drawing
cats expand quickly but if you want to draw the kitten version of a cat just do an outline like this, keeping the head the same size
