In today's linguistics class we talked about metaphors, and we really want two of the ones we talked about to become conventionalised.

So first of all this one girl told us about a newer metaphor in Russian, "I have paws", which is something you say when you don't really want to do something, so you say you're incapable of doing it since you have paws instead of hands. Like, "hey, finish that report" "aw but I have paws :(" and I think that's adorable. It's like "I'm just a girl" but for animals.

We also had the task to invent a novel metaphor and have the others guess what it means, and the teacher really liked my "she's such a capybara" = "everyone loves her". Capybara energy is like golden retriever energy except you're chill about it. You're just vibing and everyone digs that.

Anyway I think these deserve to become more common in English

VERY important addition oh my gosh,,,

i don't "date" and i don't "chill" and i don't "hang out." i make pacts. i swear oaths. i forge unbreakable bonds. this makes me a cool breezy person to take on road trips et cetera

there are four human activities and they are crafting, stories, math, and fucking around. whatever you're doing is at least one of those four.

I’d like to point out that this kitten is trying to entice the dog into wrestling. As it would with other kittens/cats. That feinting and then leaping back sideways? That’s an invitation to tackle. Other kittens would understand this body language.

This dog does not understand which is probably for the best, because this kitten clearly does not understand the concept of ‘weight class’

[rinahale]

@moniquill you are correct. The little void is asking the cloud to play. The cloud does understand the request, however, he is considering how to play with such a tiny void without squishing it. But the tiny void has too much bouncy so the fluffiest of good clouds doesn’t have time to make a decision - if you see that little step after the yawn is an attempt at play - however the cloud’s paw is too big so power and pressure need to be adjusted. Big conundrum for the cloud.

[rosslynpaladin]

Dog: I mean I SEE what you’re suggesting but uh… I might squish you.
