Plural of шмаркач?

(Apologies. Not a Ukrainian speaker, just an author) If you were to use шмаркач in the middle of an English sentence in a plural form, would you add an S at the end per typical English grammar form? Or is there a plural Ukrainian version that a typical Ukrainian native would use?

Example: "Those little ___ stole my bread again."

Thank you!

What insect created these?

I'm sorry. I absolutely demolished them before I got my phone to take a pic lol. I was just so interested.

Started out as a chunk of mud about 1" wide by 2" long or so. You could clearly see there were oblong shapes in it. Inside the mud were amber colored capsules, very delicate. What I thought was interesting was that each one seemed to hold a different stage of maturity.

Located in SW North Dakota

What's it like living in Stevens Point?

I'm looking at moving to south/central Wisconsin and Stevens Point is catching my eye.

I'm moving from North Dakota. I love hot summers and frigid, snowy winters, so weather is not an issue for me.

I've lived in a town of 150 people, 800 people, and now 25,000 people. I'm wanting to keep a sort of "small town" vibe, but desperately need more things to do. Looking for a walkable city with lots of activities, experiences, and events available. Don't mind drinking, but prefer non alcoholic activities. Super into anything outdoorsy or the arts.

Would love to be within 2, maybe 3 hours of a major city.

Low cost of living is a high factor for me.

My main worry is with finding a rental home within my budget (less than or equal to $1500/month) with my needs.

I'm totally fine with living in a home as small as 700sq ft, but a LARGE yard is a MUST, as well as being pet friendly. I'd ideally like to be in town, or right on the edge, but am perfectly comfortable living out of town. No duplexes, no apartments, no upper/lower level units, no roommates.

4 Seasons - Walkable + Outdoorsy

Very loosely looking at the idea of a fresh start. Any ideas on location?

I would love a walkable/community centered living situation. I'd love to be able to walk/bike to get around as much as possible. I don't mind drinking, but really enjoy/prefer taking part in non alcoholic communities activities and events. I love me a good farmers market lol.

I have two HIGH energy dogs. Having outdoor access is extremely important for both them and myself. Hiking trails that aren't heavily trafficked preferably.

I love anything outdoors, so the more that's available, the better. Hiking, camping, lakes, parks, etc.

I love having all 4 seasons and variable weather. Give me hot summers and cold snowy winters, please, with all of the extremes.

Would prefer a small and simple home, wouldn't mind a tight community spacially. I'd love a big yard, but can survive without it IF there is abundant outdoor access in the area through parks and hiking.

Willing to give Canada or USA a try. No hard preferences on coastal vs inland, but I do really enjoy the plains. I think I'd enjoy living near mountains, but not in them. Very interested in living in a small town but within 1-3 hours of a metropolis. Lower cost of living as much as possible of course. Single female.

Appropriate age gap ranges?

I (F recently turned 21) met a 25M at a wedding recently. Had fun, chatted a little, danced, nothing crazy. Exchanged phone numbers. We live about 4 hours away from each other. I am looking for a long term relationship, but we haven't discussed anything about that or going on dates. I've had a few comments made by friends older and younger than me that the age gap is weird and pursuing a relationship would be weird because of it. Thoughts? ​

Edit: Or not necessarily pursuing a romantic relationship, but opening the door to the idea of it

Favorite dock diving bumpers?

We've previously practiced with Kong rubber bumpers and she goes crazy for them. They just don't work well in the wind, and it's very windy where we are haha. I'm looking at buying a real bumper now so the wind doesn't affect it so much. She has really high toy drive, but needs some time to adjust to toys. We've tried other people's bumpers and she definitely prefers softer, lighter, and smaller bumpers.

What brands/companies or products do you recommend? Bonus if they can arrive in less than a week. Not needing customization.
