FYI

"Sweet viburnum can get 15-30 ft tall and 10-15 ft wide if left alone, but as a hedge it's usually kept around 6-12 ft.
For a quicker privacy screen, plant about 4 ft apart.
For healthier growth and less crowding, go closer to 5 ft apart.
Keep 3-4 ft away from fences or walls for airflow and trimming.

A staggered double row makes a very dense hedge if you have the room. They like well-drained soil."

Depends on species some grow can 18 feet plus. They do grow fast and can be placed pretty closely.

How about viburnum. There are many types but they are relatively fast growing.

It reminds me of Politifact's insistence that Zohran Mamdani isn't a communist because he didn't use the word on his website.

Sure, he SAYS he wants to seize the means of production, but calling him a communist is false!

The thing is, no matter how many times the Pravda Media says that the DSA Democrats aren't communists, the DSA communists keep saying that they are, in fact, communists, and their platform is every bit as radical as their critics say so.

Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.: that is the full name of the junior Senator from Illinois — neither a contrivance nor, at face value, a slur.

But John McCain couldn’t apologize quickly enough after Bill Cunningham, a conservative talk radio host, warmed up a Cincinnati rally with a few loaded references to “Barack Hussein Obama.”

Asked afterwards if it was appropriate to use the Senator’s middle name, McCain said, “No, it is not. Any comment that is disparaging of either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama is totally inappropriate.”

Europe has tons of issues, but at least people know what it means to be British or German or French or Swedish.

True, but only in the weak sense that those identities have deeper roots. When around one-fifth of the people in Britain, Germany, and Sweden are foreign-born, it’s hard to say everyone agrees on what British, German, French, or Swedish really means. Europe’s identities are old, sure, but they’re definitely still argued over.

Highly underrated comment
quote:

I use reviews a lot to pick hotels and restaurants, but you need to be able to distinguish between the legit bad reviews and the difficult people leaving a bad review for some stupid reason. As someone else said, I focus on the things that are important to me.
:

Good point. My top priorities are service and a quiet room. If you read enough reviews on Google, Booking.com, and TripAdvisor, patterns usually start to emerge. I pay particular attention to the lowest-rated reviews and how recent they are. A hotel’s responses can also be very revealing—some demonstrate attentiveness and professionalism, while others are definite red flags.

AI is increasingly being used to summarize reviews, so keyword searches can be misleading. For example, searching for “noisy” may ahow a positive comment such as, “Even though we were on the street side, it was not noisy.” Meanwhile, searching for “quiet” could bring up a negative review like, “It was never quiet, even after the rooftop bar closed.” Context matters more than the keyword itself.
