It's not really necessary for each agency or government entity to run its own server. There could be a shared service that specialized in doing that for them. Government things do have an additional layer of requirements that private ones don't have, though. Maybe that makes it less simple.

I could be wrong about this, but I think Mastodon just masks the identity of the individual who made the report in those cases.

I wonder if someone was later wandering around thinking, "I know I parked the car somewhere around here."

This has been the bane of my existence since I was a little kid. I use what I consider a perfectly normal word, and get called a "walking dictionary."
Bigger vocabulary and better grammar than most Americans is a pretty low bar.

It works the same as "you," which at one time was a plural pronoun, not a singular one. (The singular form was "thou.") In formal English, both "you" and "they" use the verb forms that go with plurals even when they're referring to one individual. It's not really consistent, but what in English ever is? So, like this:
You are wonderful.
They are wonderful.You were sitting in this chair.
They were sitting in this chair. -

A child-bearing wife wouldn't really be safe there either. If a pregnancy requires any medical intervention, they may not be able to get it, especially if it's a condition for which standard of care involves terminating the pregnancy. Having children is risky when you don't have access to proper health care.

I kinda feel like this isn't a valid question. Whether I'm a good friend seems like it's purely subjective, and depends entirely on my friend's perception of me. How I think people perceive me probably differs vastly from how they really do.

@evan I wonder why these pics got a "sensitive content" label. Also, now I want pancakes.
