ngl i have a really hard time respecting or taking seriously anyone who prioritizes like, farm animals or dogs or whatever charismatic animal it is this week over human beings in their activism. like i hear you and those animals deserve rights but do you know what other mammals are currently being tortured and exploited and killed by the Ag industry/resource extraction/capitalism? fucking human people!

For thousands of years humanity has selectively bred chickens to have larger breasts and to have to lay eggs constantly. We did it to get more meat and per chicken, but from the perspective of the domesticated chickens they’re sorta living in a very specific fetish scenario

I know a lot of ppl hate this idea but I would absolutely love to have separate rooms w my spouse if I was married. like we can sleep in each others beds and probably would a lot of the time but also having your own space exclusively for your things which you can decorate however you want and don’t have to compromise on someone elses wants or worry about their mess and also can decompress there if u do want alone time would be amazing

I didn't think it was possible to shorten words verbally without removing syllables but sailors managed.

[victoriansecret]

boatswain -> bosun main sail -> mains'l tree nail -> trunnel etc. etc. etc.

[ltwilliammowett]

May I add a few more?

coxswain - coxsun

crossjack - crojik

forecastle - fo'c'sle - folksil

gunwale - gunnel

mast- mist

sail- sill

schooner - skunner

tackle - taykull

topgallant mast - t'garns'l mist

topgallant sail - t'garns'l sill

based on the research i've done (and lived experience) of nautical linguistics- the syllables are the most important part of the word! for every command- historically and on modern tall ships, the command must be repeated by the crew exactly is it was heard: no conjugation, no changing of word order, nothing (referred to as a "call-back"). so it makes sense that these words are shortened in this manner.

boats are big, the ocean is loud, and there's a lot of stuff that gets in the way of words traveling coherently across the deck. it's also so rare to get a command when you aren't already entrenched in something else, and so may not be able to turn your head before acknowledging that you've heard. i've linked an NPR article from 2015 about how words travel in different environments, but basically the big takeaway for this scenario is: consonants get lost easily in windy or obstructed environments. there's been many a time (even in fair weather) where i'm having a conversation, on the opposite side of the boat, or even down below when an order is given, where i just hear the cadence of a command i'm familiar with and know immediately what i'm supposed to be doing.

on particularly well-practiced crews, i notice that even the tonal pattern of the officer giving the command is repeated. even without the tonal match, it's critical for the officer to have immediate feedback AND immediate response. when you get an order, you lay into it with urgency; therefore, if you repeat just as you head to your station, redirection can be given swiftly if an incorrect order has been transmitted, BUT if you heard it right the first time there's no delay in the task.

Did The Language You Speak Evolve Because Of The Heat?

People speak very differently depending on where they live, and the climate and environment might have something to do with that. Crisp Engl

quick example (callback italicized):

"haul away!" "haul away" clear! exactly the same! i know they heard and the sail is doing the thing!

"haul away" "hauling" sounds an awful lot like holding.. is something wrong? did we forget something? was someone not ready? oh the sail is going up they said HAULing

also explains @ltwilliammowett 's example of "topgallant sail - t'garns'l sill" ... in "gallant" and "garns'l," less than half the consonant sounds are the same but the SYLLABLES match. its just the representation of what the garbled mess that comes across the deck usually sounds like for that Specific Thing!!!

Merging these versions because they're both really interesting!

What a lot of people don't know about wizards is they fucking love baseball. Not even "wizard baseball" or anything, they just love baseball. There's a big geometric shape on the ground. When the pitcher throws (read: casts) the ball, there's a whole bunch of different names for the result depending on their hand movements while casting and the resultant physical forces. A wooden bat is essentially a hybrid between a wand and a staff. The umpire gets to wear cool headgear. They get to keep meticulous track of the feats of great baseball players of the past and get into arguments about it.

Magi make up at least 1% of the crowd at basically any MLB game, which is kind of insane when you actually stop and do the math on how much of the general population they make up. You go to basically any magic academy in the US or Japan (and to a lesser extent Korea), and if they have enough space for a single sports' field, you can absolutely bet it'll be a baseball diamond.

This is also why baseball players and teams are so prone to being cursed.
