I'd rather wait and see what the vision is before I rip it to bits, rather than make a bunch of assumptions for the sake of a gotcha. In many ways, I'd rather an interesting ahistorical take that has a distinctive take, an angle, than a boring but literally accurate one.

Most Spanish words come from Latin, but did you know there are 2 different types?
Words inherited from spoken Latin vs. words borrowed from written Latin during the Middle Ages and after.
Some words took both routes, creating doublets.
Here’s episode 3 of my 10-part doublet series.
Next: Italian.

I’m sorry I just cannot forgive people who write “have” or “‘ve” as “of”. 😔

Listen you could not pay me, at present, to travel to the USA. As a citizen of an ESTA country…the proposed changes for the information required on the application make travel there prohibitive. Forever. lmao.

Love to see the Sedgwick County Zoo putting out a good explainer on why GenAI slop videos of animals are a problem & how to identify them! It’s succinct, easy to read, and doesn’t shame people for not knowing better. A+ useful link to share with family and friends.
