If you're writing 18th century dialogue, this website lets you search words and phrases to double-check whether they were in use & meant what you intend. It doesn't include every period-accurate use of a word/phrase, but it certainly helped me separate genuine 18th century grammar from the vague tangle of 💬old-fashioned fancy-speak💬 I've internalized from TV and video games.

Other websites that let you do this:

Johnson's Dictionary Online (thanks @yellowbelliedtoad!) – 1755 and 1773

Green's Dictionary of Slang – 1300s to today

A dictionary of the English and Italian languages by Giuseppe Baretti is a bilingual dictionary from 1790!

Okay buuuyuyt the thingn about France and Britian and Germany is that their art museum activitly have things that dont belong to them. Things they didnt pay for. I think that the stuff stolen from the louve was actually french BUT they had it coming to them, because they have things theu stole from other countries

angreniya

Okay but it's not like the thieves will kindly return them to their places of origin. They're likely sold to other rich fuck's private collections or disassembled. I'm all for repatriating artifacts from European museums but this is not it. Now noone will see them, learn from them or return them, now these jewels are lost to all of us. "Had it coming to them" my ass, this is not some retributive justice done, it's a loss of history.

I've honestly wondered if britain's colonization of other places was just like ... carrying on the roman tradition. weren't the britons mostly farmers before the romans got there?

angreniya

I'd say it's a bit of an oversimplification. There's at least a thousand year between the fall of Rome and the start of the British Empire, during which Britain was conquered at least three times, the province became smaller kingdoms which fell apart then got united again, several political unrests happened, the royal house changed twice, the age of discovery came, technological innovations, the world economy changed, other empires in Europe rose etc. etc.

You can't really draw a straight line between a part of Britain being a roman province and the British Empire unless we say that every empire in Europe follows the Roman tradition. Which I think ignores much of the context surrounding colonialism (which is I think different in the Modern era than it was in the Ancient era) and possibly credits the romans with something that isn't even unique them. Not the first ones to conquer or build an empire after all.

I'm just barfing up my thoughts though.

it's an accessibility tool i made for myself because i needed it, which basically lets you focus on one sentence at a time as you read large blocks of texts (books, articles, etc.). it offers different highlight styles, some of which use gradients to help guide your eyes from the start of the sentence until the end. you can move forward and back pressing the buttons or using ALT + left and right arrow keys if you use it and you find it helpful please tell me about it so i can have the motivation to keep improving it. i love knowing people use my tools

[ID. Two gifs of the accessibility tool in action. They highlight one sentence at a time for ease of readability.

The first gif shows the tool cycling down the paragraphs, from sentence to sentence, in a thick yellow highlight.

The second gif shows the different highlight styles such as; a thick yellow, a thinner yellow, no highlight at all, a gradient highlight, blocky tri-color highlight by line, and colored text by line. End ID.]

me: hungarian gets a bad rap for being hard to learn but because most of what we use today was artificially constructed in the early 19th century once you understand the (very logical) grammar it actually isnt that hard

The 7 hour video essays are a result of introvert worship culture and the hatred ppl have for extroverts and sociable ppl. Like you scoff when your mom takes 4 hours to describe a 4 minute event but will watch some random bitch on YouTube for 50 hours? They want social connection without the irritability and friction

angreniya

The absence of social connection is what makes video essays easier to listen to though, among other things.

RE: D&D 5e isn't a queer game

Counterpoint: D&D 5e mechanically supports polyamory

Imagining one of those clickbait D&D 5e videos where there's the words "POLYAMORY OVERPOWERED?!" in big bold letters while a guy reads a manual with a shocked expression

angreniya

There IS a Youtube short of a guy using this for permanent +2 AC for the entire party. Everyone marries the barbarian, kill the barbarian, resurrect and marry again. Repeat until the barbarian is willing to sacriface themselves.

as a fujoshi understander, as some of you may know, i have an answer for this. it’s because traditional yaoi isn’t about gay people or gay culture, really. i do not subscribe to the notion that they generally fetishize gay people. i believe this is a grave misunderstanding. traditional yaoi is an experiment involving the removal of the female victim from the sexual regime of heterosexuality, so that women feel more comfortable eroticizing said regime. they are negotiating their place in a patriarchal sexual culture. if they can be accused of “fetishizing” anything, it is heterosexuality. if you find heterosexual norms hot, then yes, homophobia is compatible with that desire. they’re putting two men in a heterosexual relationship. they’re creating a fantasy where men are sexually subordinate to the oppressors of women, and the limitations of said regime remain intact. it is both subversive and regressive.

yeahnoitsnotthat

Absolute bullshit. nothing about it is subversive. bUT YES it is completely regressive.

Why is 99% of yaoi just repurposing heterosexual stereotypes and the subjugation of women just in male bodies then? feminine/masc gender roles are alive and well!!! if not worse.

I'm so sick of fakebians and straight girls insisting that yaoi is some subversive attempt to "unvictimize the female" and flip heteronormativity or whatever trash you make up to feel better about fantasizing about men's penises rubbing on each otehr. SHUT UP.

it's not that deep and i'd have a lot more respect for you if you just admiting you like getting off to men fucking each other. you love thinking about cock and men kissing and anal sex and top/bottom bullshit.

i don't wanna hear a single fujo claim it's SOOOOO different than men who jerk off to "lesbian" porn. you are not masturbating to a man being oppressed by another man. you're masturbating to gay male sex. AND THAT IS NATURAL AS STRAIGHT OR BI WOMEN. i get it for you bi/het women. as a lesbian, it is complete antithetical to being same sex attracted (to females). i do not believe a single woman who claims to be a lesbian and spends all her free time fantasizing about men and male sex. i can't think of anything less interesting. or more repulsive.

IF YOU ACTUALLY CARED ABOUT WOMEN and your fandom choices were some sort of anti-patriarchy stand and you are all about saying fuck you to women's oppression then you would be FERAL about F/F ships and characters. but you're not. what better way to imagine women breaking heteronormality and escaping patriarchy than ERASING MEN ENTIRELY. you have ZERO interest in female characters tho. why? internalized misogyny and you love men. i have never seen women SO angry about female charactesr as fujos who see some random female character interact with their yaoi fav boys. yeah, you tell me that isn't misogyny? and that is the vast majority of fujos. in any fandom ever. they're not into yaoi bc they secretly love women and want to escape patriarchy; its bc they hate women.

and you know what? you're allowed to get off to men fucking if you want.

BUT also how is your reason NOT FETISHIZATION? "i'm not into it bc i love seeing male bodies touching each other and being romantic and fucking. i'm really into it and jerk off to it bc i imagine one as a woman-type gender role stand-in oppressing a man and i love seeing men get degraded (by said women gender role substitute) the same way they degrade womem." that pretty much sounds like a definition of a fetish actually.

angreniya

Yes, why would you briefly examine deeper an age-old societal trend or actually listen to women when they describe their motivations and why would you think about those. Why would you try to understand the lesbians who like yaoi when you can just strip them of their identity? Why would you compare the mentality between yaoi fans and lesbian obsessed men and the media they produce? It's just a fetish, for everyone, straight, bi, lesbian, ace, cis or trans, women, men and enbys, and fetishes are never influenced by society and gender roles.

Nothing's ever deep if you don't want to think about it.

yeahnoitsnotthat

LMAO girl cope harder

this is Pathetic.

"age old" are you stupid? lesbians DO NOT obsess over gay men having sex and sucking each other off, period. in any time period.

If you obsess over men rubbing their penises all over each other and you jerk off to male genitalia and men fucking men, and on such a level that it's all you think about in fandom spaces and in your porn choice, you are not a lesbian. you are just a pathetic pornbrain-rotted fetishist bisexual. i don't need to "understand lesbians' motivations" for being into yaoi bc they don't exist. they're not lesbians. and i understand bisexual women's motivations for being into it perfectly.

you can't be "socialized" into genuinely enjoying cock if you are a lesbian. idgaf if it's fictional penises or not. you getting aroused by dicks, men and dicks going into male assholes is by definition not something you can coerce ("socialize") a lesbian into. sexuality doesn't work that way. lesbians can force themselves to tolerate males/sex with males, and even pretend they enjoy it, BUT IT IS NEVER REAL. they never feel actual arousal. and they never obsess over it. they try to avoid the idea of male genitals as much as possible. you can't SOCIALIZE a lesbian into actually loving cocks and being so interested in them she spends all her free time thinking about penis, and masturbating to them on top of it all.

that is conversion therapy rhetoric, you homophobic shithead.

there are no such thing as gay male/penis-obsessed lesbians. those are bisexuals.

hope that helps.

sincerely,

an actual lesbian, who will gladly strip all fake lesbians of using the word lesbian when they are bisexual.

angreniya

For a lesbian who insists on not being obsessed with gay men and absolutely does not fetishize them you talk an awfully lot about rubbing cocks together. Because that's all what yaoi/mm romance is, apperantly. And you can't like yaoi without being aroused by it. Interesting approach.

But anyway at least thankfully you're a champion of women with your eagernes to listen. Would come off really unfortunately if you went around just agressively assuming every lesbian's thoughts and experiences.

yeahnoitsnotthat

If you are obsessed with gay male sex, porn, and romance you are not a lesbian! You trying to tell me yaoi isnt packed full of smut that resders enjoy entirely bc it is exciting/interesting/arosing to them? Seriously? Lmao. !! Tell me another joke. Girl i have been in fandoms longer than you have been alive. I know exactly what the majory of yaoi fic is, what it's used for and if you're that obsessed with men making out and having sex with each other....

You are not a homosexual female. It's so amazingly simple.

You just don't get it that you're bisexual. So sad for you. There is nothing shameful about that. Embrace it.

Go get equally obsessed or more obsessed with Yuri and then see where we're at. I bet you can't. Bc you don't even like women much. And you dont picture them as ful people capable of sex and romance and intimacy and drama like you sit around all day imagining for your little males. Bc you are not a lesbian.

Ta da.

Bye bye bisexual

angreniya

I think your life would be much easier if you stopped just blindly assuming stuff about people and shutting down dialogue as if you know everything about the world. Would help your temper definitely.

I know I'm not a lesbian. I never claimed to be a lesbian. I've never said or alluded to being attracted to women at all. I'm not. That's not what the conversation was about in the first place.

And I'm not sure what the internal life of fujos according to you is like, but based on your writing you don't seem to think they're full people capable of thought and feelings besides "obsessing over yaoi". I suppose then it would make sense why you're not interested in the whys and hows.

Anyway I eagerly await what new labels you'll attach to me just so you can get mad.
