Hi!

Call me whatever, some people irl call me Buddy. I'm a hot mess, pronouns are she/they. (Not correlated to being a hot mess)

This was a blog I created in middleschool to lurk, and only in the past 4 years did i become more active.

This is basically me irl but in blog form. So, there's weak organization. But it's primarily meant for ME, so idc

The shows I watched in middleschool are still major in my personality. (OHSHC, Death Note, BTS/Kpop, ATLA)

Here for a good time, not for a dull/structured time.

PSA: no name is impossible to pronounce. no name is too hard to learn, no name is justifiably butchered. kids with 'different' names should be taught again and again that being called by their name is a right, not a privilege

[untilitdoes]

there are over 2000 unique phonemes (individual sounds) in the world’s languages, and each language has anywhere from around 20 to 60. you stop learning new phonemes it’s theorized at around age 12. this is where accents come from -- using your own language’s/region’s phonemes to speak

so no name is impossible to pronounce world-wide, but it is very easy to not have the linguistic archive necessary to pronounce a given name entirely correctly. it is a simple case of physically not knowing where to place your tongue, whether or not to vibrate your vocal chords, etc. the only one of the dictators of sound you could be shown is how to position your lips

that being said... obviously you should still try. saying a name as correctly as you physically can goes a long way for making someone feel respected and humanized, and dismissing a name entirely as too hard goes a long way to disrespect and dehumanize people. just also accept that someone’s accent interfering with their pronunciation isn’t a sign of lack of trying, but a sign of physical limits

This is very true. I met a baby at my old store whose name was Navajo. I did my best and actually got a bit frustrated because there was a syllable I could NOT get, and her dad was like “it’s very hard if you don’t actually speak Diné, but thank you. Most people won’t even try.”

Be the one who tries.

[datasoong47]

Yes, there’s a big difference between getting as close as you can with your native language’s phonology, and just not even trying

I think a year or so after canon, Jiang Cheng should one day come over to Gusu Lan for some sort of sect conference or whatever, and Wei Wuxian should try to meet him all nervously laughing in Lan robes (<- he's trying to move on, it's not going well), and this sets back Yunmeng Shuangjie reconciliation by fifty thousand years. Jiang Cheng wasn't even looking for him! (<- desperately sneaking around like a thief to avoid running into wangxian). Lan Wangji should be pleased by this development except before leaving Jiang Cheng said: "you didn't even like <insert Gusu Lan staple>" looking furious and vicious (<- he was ten seconds from bursting into tears) and Wei Ying had not informed Lan Wangji about this?? He had to find it from Jiang Wanyin of all people??? What do you mean you can tolerate some things for my sect Wei Ying, I do not have any issues from my parents whatsoever. My whole year has been ruined.

Imagine being the gays at a pride event in 2004 living their lives when someone grabs the microphone and announces to the room that Ronald Reagan was pronounced dead. Can you even imagine the hype, the celebration, the pure elation

[drarry]

This is the Pride Month that It will happen. I feel it in my gay bones

We need to start publicly shaming people for creating huge messes everywhere they go in stores. Retail employees should be allowed to stamp "DOUCHEBAG" on your forehead if you keep fucking up every display you see
