[Image of text saying,

Some AAVE speakers pluralize 'child' as 'childrens'. People get racist about this ("It's already plural!"), but 'children' actually comes from Middle English speakers doing the same thing: slapping their plural marker on word already pluralized by an extinct plural marker.

To oversimplify: in Old English, 'childer' ('ċildra') was the plural of 'child' ('ċild'). Middle English developed an '-en' plural marker, which we see in 'oxen'. Instead of updating to 'childen', people slapped their preferred '-en' onto the end of 'childer' - so now we have 'child-er-en'. AAVE carries on this tradition with 'child-er-en-s'.

"Pure" language is just impurity obscured by the passage of time.

New account, new script! I got tired of writing down the interesting rulesets so now it adds a legend to the image.

Made a new blog for all my cellular automata, if anyone was actually here for that

[catthlaf-alt]

New three-state one-dimensional cellular automaton.

The initial state (top row) is random. Neighborhood is size 3 (one on either side). Each pixel looks at the three pixels above it and sets its state according to the following rules:

State 1 (white): 200, 022, 220, 002, 101

State 2 (gray): 111, 000, 010

State 0 (black): all else

[catthlaf-alt]

Another one

Rules:

Starting from one point, two points, and random:

what if you combined a pressure cooker and a deep fryer and made a pressure fryer, the most dangerous kitchen implement in history
