i mean i like language history. the meat thing is cool. the long words thing is cool. but english is really not unique as being formed crole-style and we shouldn't say or imply that it is.
my fave example is when the western xia rushed to adopt something like chinese characters and fucked it up so bad that writing a six takes like ten strokes
Jesus Fucking Christ, it's like looking at that art piece where there's a tapestry of characters and all of them are fake words, and it looks impressive from a distance but is all nonsense. It looks wrong. I feel like I should be able to read the words, but I can't.
I wonder if this isn't like one of those things where the intelligensia class made things super hard so the commoners wouldn't learn it easy or something.

i think regular han characters would probably be good enough for that. this just makes it hard on everyone

heck, isn't the former part of why hiragana and hangul were originally called "women's script" by assholes?
There are, incidentally, language scripts in some areas of southern China which are nigh-exclusively used and understood by women which men only know of but cannot read.
people can talk shit about using technology as a way to ignore people but when there's a guy following you in his car all like "hey girl where are you going" having a phone in my hand to distract myself and look busy & not look obligated to talk to him is a lifesaver
also if you see a girl walking somewhere and she looks purposeful, she probably knows where she's going.

No matter how many times you save the world, it always manages to get back in jeopardy again. Sometimes I just want it to stay saved! You know, for a little bit? I feel like the maid; I just cleaned up this mess! Can we keep it clean for... for ten minutes!

One day the king called a meeting at Oyr where he made a long and very eloquent speech to urge men to convert. The men of the Nidaros district had collected a small army and maintained they were prepared to do battle with the king rather than convert. The king told them to keep in mind that he had dealt with greater opponents than a bunch of local farmers from Nidaros. This was enough to strike fear into the hearts of the farmers and they all surrendered to him. A great number of people were baptized before the assembly was dissolved.

In 988 Basil II requested military assistance from Vladimir I of Kiev to help defend his throne. In compliance with the treaty made by his father after the Siege of Dorostolon (971), Vladimir sent 6,000 men to Basil. Vladimir took the opportunity to rid himself of his most unruly warriors which in any case he was unable to pay. This is the presumptive date for the formal, permanent institution of an elite guard.

good translation here.

...it's not the classiest burger, but hey, I'm unemployed.
also,
Going to be fun...
I am also okay with people engaging with them
however I am not really anywhere near the main constituency anyway so whatever
i mean they just sorta pass me by if i don't want to engage them
but that's because blowing things out of proportion and overdramatizing things is fun
so i'll shut up now before i step on any more landmines
Probably because it's still a little damp...
At least it actually appears to be healing.
That is, until the scab splits itself open...
I give up. I'm having beef mac and cheese elsewhere.
