In Soviet Russia memory manages you!

I think I got “cunT” once and gave myself a heart attack because I thought I had accidentally committed a frustrated debugging log message to a work repo. I found it while searching for swears but it was in a file I hadn’t changed

Lame nerds who think sex outside of marriage and weed are bad

I tried it out because of the memes and stuck with it because there wasn’t a bunch of extra stuff I don’t need distracting me. I kinda forget I’m using arch btw

My boy Faramir taught me to not hate the soldier on the ground

Though the word they are saying might share the same root as fascist. The Latin word fascis referred to a bundle of sticks and as French developed most s sounds before another consonant were dropped (status > etat, schola > ecole). Also c to g and vice versa is a common sound change. The French ruled England for a while and the word made its way into English then.

I don’t know if you cared about any of that but I do think it’s a funny name that those homophobes gave themselves

I watched the Khelif vs Carini fight and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I’m an actual fan of women’s combat sports and I’ve seen them kick each other in the head way harder than anything in that match. Khelif had faster hands and better positioning. She earned the win.

I’m related to several collegiate level women athletes and none of them give a shit about trans women in sports. I’ve never met a trans woman who’d even come close to competing with them.

The people who are most concerned about keeping trans women from competing don’t even watch women’s sports. Hell, I doubt they even bothered to watch the 45 second fight yet have all kinds of opinions about it.

I cracked up during the Jan 6th hearings when his aide said she came into a room and saw a broken plate and ketchup splattered on the wall.

The helmet kissing thing at the RNC was insane and hilarious too. Weird dude

Look, I’m sorry I didn’t vote in 2016 but I’ve voted every time since then and started paying attention to local politics. Now I have a protected bike lane next to my neighborhood and the roads aren’t full of holes

I wanted to share the article with friends and copy a part of the text I wanted to draw attention to but the asshole site has selection disabled. Now I will not do that and timesnownews can go fuck themselves

It looks like abacus is of uncertain origin and likely doesn’t share the same root as acus. Finding unexpected histories of words is the fun part of etymology though. Like how donkey ass and butt ass have completely different origins

I think I only know one shitty Karen in my life and the rest are great

I got a media failed to load error at first and thought that was the joke

At least most of us don’t need to worry about time dilation caused by relatively yet. Have fun with that, space faring developers.

These restaurants keep my cousins’ reclaimed wood furniture business alive.

The IDF must really love killing Palestinians. They can’t even stop for a few days. They need an intervention

I was born in America and had to do absolutely nothing to be better off than at least 3 billion people. I’m very lucky and this system is completely unfair

It comes from Latin iactare meaning “to cast”. Over time the c was dropped as French evolved and the i shifted to a y consonant and we get yeter. Once it was borrowed into English it further changed as the -er was dropped and short e became a long ee following the great vowel shift.

I am lying but most of those bits are facts and I’m actually describing the etymology of jet. Also the proto Indo European ye is hilariously uncanny.

I’ve been away awhile but I haven’t been using reddit either which is probably the best outcome tbh

Gendered articles probably not but having “a” vs “the” removes the need for additional cases (eg. I/me/my). Latin and Russian don’t have articles but they have more cases which have different suffixes that have to be applied to all nouns. Usually simplifying one part of language makes another part more complex. English has a very simple case structure but the word order is much more strict
