should-be-sleeping

In fifth grade a boy tried to impress me by swallowing a whole tadpole live and I punched him so hard that he puked and the tadpole was fine.

should-be-sleeping

I kept it in a terrarium and it became a normal 🐸 despite everything. About a year afterward (I thought) it died, so I sadly put it in a shoebox in the shed until the ground thawed enough for a proper funeral but when that day came I opened the box and the frog was fine.

meangirlnurse

one day one of you is going to call the wrong person "a queer" to their face and get hit lol

meangirlnurse

though i guess that would require talking to actual logged-off LGBT people and i know y'all don't do that lmao

meangirlnurse

"queer being a slur is something people just made up recently" please talk to any logged-off LGBT person over the age of 40 sometime

#text #reblog #discourse #lmao I went my whole childhood hearing that word being spat out like venom I get so pissed when people call me that #q slur

Just thinking about video game stuff that makes me nostalgic. I was born in 2003 but most of this stuff was from like 2009-2014

Playing Minecraft on the Xbox for the first time after my dad’s friend’s son who was older than me showed me the controls. Building a gigantic cobblestone house with a glass roof in the desert. Trying to figure out redstone and spawner tricks but being like nine years old and an idiot and not thinking to google stuff. Getting really excited when horses came out because I didn’t know how to download mods and I was a horse girl (long before I actually started interacting with horses irl). Freaking out at desert structures because I thought herobrine was in my game.

Sims on the ds. Never had electricity because I forgot to make my sims go to work

Saving up for new leaf for months when I heard it was coming out. Having a personal vendetta against one villager who I would trap in her house by digging holes around it

Going to my neighbor’s house just so I could play ocarina of time on her wii

Wii fit. Oh my god. The beginning of my self esteem issues

That one cooking mama game that came with a stuffed baby you had to shove your wiimote into

Getting hit in the head with a wii baseball bat by my sister’s then boyfriend and having to go to dance class with gauze taped over my ear

M a r i o

Sucking absolute shit at cod but playing with aforementioned boyfriend anyways because I thought squatting and spraying bullets in a circle was the peak of comedy

Simanimals. I literally cried when one of my wolves died. Also responsible for my first all nighter

Using my Christmas money to buy the alpha release of cubeworld and quickly discovering the family computer wasn’t powerful enough to run it. Playing it anyways and nearly catching the thing on fire

So many free mmorpgs. But wizard101 and pirate101 in particular.

The icarly ds game? What the hell was that? Why was that?

That one ds game where you could design jewelry and then buy the jewelry from some website??

Nana coming over for family Mario Kart night on the wii :)

I’ll update this when I think of more

why do black people use you in the wrong context? such is "you ugly" instead of "you're ugly" I know u guys can differentiate, it's a nuisance

you a bitch

rsbenedict-deactivated20181216

It’s called copula deletion, or zero copula. Many languages and dialects, including Ancient Greek and Russian, delete the copula (the verb to be) when the context is obvious.

So an utterance like “you a bitch” in AAVE is not an example of a misused you, but an example of a sentence that deletes the copular verb (are), which is a perfectly valid thing to do in that dialect, just as deleting an /r/ after a vowel is a perfectly valid thing to do in an upper-class British dialect.

What’s more, it’s been shown that copula deletion occurs in AAVE exactly in those contexts where copula contraction occurs in so-called “Standard American English.” That is, the basic sentence “You are great” can become “You’re great” in SAE and “You great” in AAVE, but “I know who you are” cannot become “I know who you’re” in SAE, and according to reports, neither can you get “I know who you” in AAVE.

In other words, AAVE is a set of grammatical rules just as complex and systematic as SAE, and the widespread belief that it is not is nothing more than yet another manifestation of deeply internalized racism.
