Also genuine, true blue, the real deal, and so on. I feel like it could describe the fab new governors, the new NYC mayor, the folks who flipped the script all over the country. Well done 🩵 🌊 💙 #weirdwordwednesday #weirdwords

I found them all except two! Brackish just never came up and fearfully was a tough version - plenty of fear or even fearful, but no fearfully

AllDebooks I found brackish this morning, which was annoying as ... 🤬 1mo
