I believe Kamala would also be the first president with no children of their own, but married someone with their own children.

Apparently they call her Mamala, which is adorable.

And don't look for what "Kamala" means in Finnish.

My favorite counter to the myth about 'Nova' and 'no va' is that in english, you wouldn't refuse to by a dining room set called "Notable".

I never thought about that. Good point.

That’s apocryphal. Guess what the word for a stellar nova is in Spanish.

Well TIL. But then I'm guessing they won't have an issue with 'Mamala' in this context either, if they even learn about it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Yeah, for sure.
