Venial Trinities @intransitivelie@beige.pa... I love English. It's a trash fire disguised as a language and I'm here for all of it. However, I really need to be better about people not speaking it "correctly." It's a goddamn trash fire. Of course people don't speak it correctly. I'm pretty sure there's no correct way to speak it. And that's leaving out all the racism and classism which goes into "grammatical perfection." English isn't Latin. It's a glorious clusterfuck of stolen parts bolted onto a bastard chassis and powered entirely by the burning of dictionaries. There is no way that it should be the lingua franca of international affairs, and yet it is. Speak it any way you want. English doesn't give a fuck. English will take your error and turn it into a part of itself. English drinks prescriptivist tears like fine wine. Contribute to the delinquency of English any way you can.

Yep. For all that applying the rules is my job 😆, also this:

this post was SO relatable, especially about having to reframe your normal. it is absolutely possible to get up and keep going, even if you're going at a different speed, in a different direction. you can still arrive somewhere new and exciting!

gingerrrrrr 😥

A light yellow promotional graphic titled “Our Progress So Far,” which details what WNDB has accomplished with their LGBTQIA+ mental health care package initiative since announcing it in November. The body text reads as follows: “To date, the WNDB team has sent out over 400 bookish care packages to LGBTQIA+ teens nationwide. Our goal is to share mental health resources and stories with queer teens to support them as they navigate anxiety, fear, and endangerment post-election.” Beneath the text is a dark blue bubble containing the shortened URL “bit.ly/SendingHopeCampaign”, where folks can donate to support this initiative. In the bottom right-hand corner of the graphic is an illustration of a hand dropping a red heart into a donation box.

With your support, WNDB has already sent 400+ bookish care packages to LGBTQIA+ teens nationwide 🌈

There’s still over 3000 package requests we’d love to fulfill. We hope you’ll consider donating so we can expand this essential initiative!

immediately after, opened a letter from dshs that my food stamps were decreasing because of my SSD cost of living adjustment
