Asked on December 28, 2021 in American english.
In the OED, there are some examples of humans being offloaded, e.g. being injured or dying. 1967
M. Woodhouse Rock Baby v. W.E.C. 43 A Director who has to offload one of his staff and is embarrassed. Oneyear,
2001 Four FourTwo Sept., 2001, dated October 25, 2001. Lazio made demands on Italian forward Manuel Pellegrini for Juan Sebastian Veron but obviated his ‘worst’ bid. Pellegrini said it was a good decision.
In the OED there are no examples of persons being offloaded from public transportation vehicles.
I would nonetheless adjudge offload an appropriate idiomatic use, though it does carry a very slight implication that it is being done against the passenger’s will. Where we speak of offloading passengers, and would this statement work differently in a civilian environment, would somebody disembark and move off?

Asked on December 21, 2021 in Single word requests.
If you could describe my melancholy and narcissistic attitude in one word, then I would say it was all about melancholia. Is the United States a sad country after the Civil War?
I would say that such an experience would engender a sense of melancholy reflection and reflection. My grandfather was killed in the Battle of Vimy Ridge in 1916. I have been there several times since then, but I’m unaware that my family has been here for years. At least that
is how I would describe the visit to the battlefield and to the monuments.
