I have a "midsize" SUV and went on vacation with seven people, and it could hardly hold all of us even with a luggage rack on the hitch. We rented a minivan at our destination, and it EASILY fit all seven people and luggage with room to spare and was more comfortable. It also was a hybrid and got > 30mpg. Definitely wanting to rethink that SUV purchase now.

As a follow up, do you have any suggested reading material on the topic? You seem well versed.

Ashera and Astarte are the same, aren't they? One is just the Greek? I've admittedly got a lot to learn about this period of history.

Yes, they were. The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission regularly compensates losses due to predation that have been verified.

This is a common misconception, if you dig into it you'll see that God is basically the same in both old and new testaments. Nobody talked about hell more than Jesus.

Overdrive makes Libby and seems to be their modern platform

Another service to check out others haven't mentioned is libro.fm. this one isn't self hostable or anything and is more of a direct replacement for Audible. Plus, they support local book stores with their sales and are a social purpose corporation.

These thoughts and this paper and video analysis https://youtu.be/-nPon8Ad_Ug led me to that same conclusion. Definitely going to start having a more internationally weighted portfolio.

Got any learning resources for this? I also inherited one from my grandpa and it's currently running, but was sitting for a looong time. I probably need to do some maintenance.

This reminded me of the anime From The New World (Shinsekai Yori). A pretty interesting watch if you've never seen it before.
