Curiously, I'm trying to design a politics video game.
Not one of those election campaign simulators where you play a candidate and try to get elected. No.
One where you play for control of the policymaking process. Where you play to control the legislature the way you'd control territories in a game of Risk.
Oh noes, Puppies ate the lawn gnomes, now the Cat crusaders are revving up their politic war machines to overthrow the bathroom treaty.
Without the bathroom treaty, the Furnished couch pillows will enact land donations to further the Armchair empire, thus guaranteeing them a spot on the Kitchen sink's council.
Do you even know what that means for the port cities of Refrigerator and Drying Machine? The FCP have been trying to limit those ports ever since the Beanie Baby Boomers.
The KSC has enough pull with Queen Mop and King Broom to do that sort of thing, the only other thing that could do that is Sire Toothpaste and the Madam Hairdryer.
The Dogs must've been paid off by someone to have desecrated the Cat's Lawn Gnome sanctuary.
But I can't think of anyone on good standings with the Dog leader Squeakims that this kind of outcome... Unless, could it be from the Grass kingdom of the west, the Red Rose of Garden?
Perhaps, why didn't Bar of the Chocolate clan warn Squeakims of the dangers?
Someone must've diverted his attention, quickly, you must find the Bar of Chocolate, he will calm down the Cats. vs. Dog debate in the Halls of TV. maybe then we'll stop the ensuing chaos, or at least slow it down.
I would like to be able to speak, really, any of my ancestral tongues (Dutch, German, Belgian, Russian...) you feel real isolated at family gatherings when you're one of like five or so monoglots there.
sometimes i wonder if it's impolite to want to learn Welsh
often people speak it when they're out in public because they want to limit the number of people who will be able to listen in
that's not why i want to know it, but still
it's not like it's the most useful language to know, after all; i just feel it's important to take an interest in the language of a country if you're spending time there
I will say (and I don't mean any offense) that I have always found Welsh a very odd language. It doesn't really sound like any other European tongues I've ever heard.
The United States has no real pan-regional culture to speak of, so I can't really identify with that unfortunately.
I suppose I could understand someone being annoyed by someone who's very obviously not a Pennsylvanian around here--Southerners and in particular people from New Jersey tend to stand out like a sore thumb--but on the other hand I feel like holding that against a person is rude, especially if they're just passing through (which is probably more common between states of the US than between European countries though I wouldn't really know for certain).
incidentally, i wondered about what you said about Texan accents, so i looked up videos of people speaking with Texan accents on YouTube and they sounded pretty normal to me
then i looked up Pennsylvanian accents and they sounded a lot less familiar, somehow
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022

I have heard that southern accents are essentially British accents but much much slower, so that could be why.
I have a pretty standard Lancaster / Pennsylvania Deutsch accent myself.

I think I have a pretty standard Midwestern accent...the kind that Americans think of as the "default" accent (since it's often used by newscasters and the like)
Actually I kinda wonder about it. I lived almost all of my childhood in upstate New York, so I must've grown up speaking like however they do up there. But now I've lived more than a decade in Pennsyltucky, so I wonder if my speech has changed any.

You live near Pittsburgh don't you? You probably have what people around here would call a Steelworker accent.

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot

Nor Ukranian, which I learned in gradeschool.
ou, je voudrais parler toutes les langues comme une langue
fluently
that would be ridiculously ambitious
but like, i wanna be able to switch between ways of speaking seamlessly and without mistake
Good movie, I like it.
But, ugh, those trolls and that song. Waaay worse than Hunchback's gargoyles.

But I am not a descendent of Rhodri's subjects, so I wouldn't know, really.
but like if someone came to England and didn't take an interest in the language and culture i'd be kind of annoyed, tbh
so i don't know
^ maybe because it's Celtic? are you familiar with Gaelic (Irish or Scottish)?

it's fine to display your heritage, and take pride in it
but if somebody was living in England but regarded England with disdain and didn't bother to learn the language, that would bug me

^ everyone says that, and it's never true
"hwo wantz some schufly pie?"
some of these achievements are murder.
