I'm not sure if this helps, but:
Mary–merry distinction:[55] Hence merry is [mɛɹɪ], but Mary is [mɛəɹɪ]. Mary also has an opener variant of [ɛ] than merry. Marry is pronounced as /æ/, which is distinct from the vowels of both Mary and merry.[55]

As a parent of three kids I couldn’t imagine the pressure she is feeling while her partner is recovering. Personally, I think he needs 6 months of solid rehab at home and reassess his ability. At that point, let him make the decision. If he can’t handle the position than Shapiro needs to make a strategic decision.

I’m just looking at the official PA budget on the treasury website. Give it a try. Unless you think those numbers are falsified.

Didn’t watch, don’t care. Probably support whatever you’re mad about.

Ooof I admire your optimism that money actually comes from millionaires and not the working class.

Anyone who's healthy and capable....Certainly not Giselle.

Don't think it should belong here at all to be discussed.

Republicans tend to hate it when people vote.

I like Bedford, but the absolute most racist people I've ever encountered in my old job that took me all over the state happened to be in Bedford.
Don't get me wrong, there were some absolutely amazing people there as well, but I've never had people say the vile things said to me from people in Bedford.

That’s a good point. Especially if he would have to resign, that might mean he needed attention and she might not have the bandwidth.

No I don’t think his degrees are community property. She also has community development experience focusing on nutrition. In fact that is how they met. And after he suffered the stroke, I think she supported him personally and professionally and I would even venture to say she may have made a difference in the number of votes he got. Although the Republicans’ unserious nominee also probably helped Fetterman’s vote count.

They are slammed with orders, 3 hour waits for pick-up/delivery! They are definitely feeling the love but are overwhelmed at the moment

Well, obv there are legal issues on things like this. Ownership of the video may be a factor. Who has the legal right to share it. Does their lawyer recommend they not share it. Have defamation lawsuits been filed. Reddit admins get involved guiding the mods through the complex legal issues, I suspect. It may not be Sovreign214’s choice. An admin or reddit lawyer may be inserted onto the mod team to monitor.

One of the mods named Sovereign2142 has been going out of his way to defend the woman in this video and delete any posts that bring what she did up https://www.inquirer.com/news/pennsylvania/amys-family-pizzeria-hatboro-racist-rant-viral-tiktok-reddit-20230224.html

Why? Because she's a woman born in Brazil? You think his degrees and experience are community property?

Your probably right. It might hold up in court if it’s not posted but probably not worth the hassle of getting arrested.

....Carrie & carry sound alike, and ferry rhymes with all of them. I'm still not sure how they sound different. Can you describe the actual sounds?

I'll have to pay better attention because I don't know that I've heard that here in PA. It sounds just like a New England accent to me, or someone trying to sound like they're doing a NE accent.

I don't know. He was from Southwestern PA so he'd be more likely to say Stillers. ;)

…right, the accent probably transfers to other sounds/words as well. Here’s a c&p from the Wiki Page:
“Mary has the a sound of mare, marry has the "short a" sound of mat, and merry has the "short e" sound of met.”
