Second time in the last few days I see that particular typo. It's "decent". Please.
...no, staff must descend into the hollowed grounds...
I dunno have you seen the movie The Descent? I could see the cave dwellers in that movie being cousins to the MAGA crowd. Great low budget horror flick btw. Skip the sequel.
No, but I've watched Disneys Descendants. A bunch of villain's kids get to go to school after being cut off from society all their lives due to their parents choices. The kids come in to school dedicated to evil, but the more they learn & get to know people, the more they all decide to be good people.
I have no idea how that relates to anything in the real world in the past however many years.
Yep, you're right. I caught it when re-reading my post to contextualize a reply, though it's been too late to edit without being dishonest. I hold myself highly accountable for mistakes and that's one of them. Thanks for pointing it out.
I also like the Oxford Comma and a proper ellipses…
It was more of an emotion than pointing something out, I hated autocomplete too when it was a new thing and would suggest nonsense half of the time. =\
An understandable Freudian slurp.
It means they are descended from decent people.
