Hiyaaaa I saw your post about knowing what prevs url means and I was gonna be like oh! I'm at the point with learning toki pona that I can kiiinda figure stuff out so I'm like oh, pali and nasin, that's like, work and path?

Then I go to your blog and see that palina is your name so now I'm like what then what does sin mean? Looking it up it's like, new or again?

So yeah I'm curious now pls tell me about your url

okay so, sin does mean new in my url, im (jan) Palina sin bc 1. im new to being jan Palina (transgender....) 2. i like to see the world like its my first time n like rly appreciate everything, bc if i dont fight to hold onto hope i get depressed tbh 3. im young so im like literally new, theres a lot for me to see still 4. its kinda funny like "its paulina again" or "more paulina"

the other way to read it, pali nasin, also works bc its very vague... theres a lot you can take away from it. i kinda picked it for the "pali nasin"/"palina sin" thing but it does mean smth its not *just* shoehorning a double meaning. i kinda explained it in the post but its like how i wanna be. live as myself, following what i believe in, working to be a better person, creating things for myself, etc. this works bc nasin means path/way but it can be very metaphorical abt it, like a 'way' of life. when ppl call toki pona "taoist" theyre mostly talking abt the word nasin which is pretty much the word tao (and kinda "way" in english). im not religious but ive read a lil bit abt it bc of toki pona

pali means "work" or "doing" or "creating" or other stuff. so theres less room to get funky w it like there is w nasin, but you can read it in multiple ways...

n thats what i was thinking when i made it but theres also how other ppl have read it which i like. toki pona's ambiguity works for being poetic n fitting lots of meaning into smth small... like "palina sin" as the english word sin. or "modus operandi" which is genuinely a rly cool url imo...

basically its as much meaning as i could fit in two words lol

uh so yeah :] i hope this is enough of an infodump to satisfy ur curiosity lmao... i didnt even realize i could write this much abt a url......... 💜💜💜

the last thing abt this url is that it is basically never taken on any website. so its rly easy to use lmfao

thx for the ask!
