The trees sure are nice today! Dark, ominous, looming...the faces of those lost to the woods carved on their trunks, visible only if you look at them a certain way...

Car? Yeahh that isn't a word here. It's either a machine(she/her) oooor an automobile(he/him). Unless you want to be pretentious in which case you can say samohod, like the poles, or samorush, or perhaps rushiyny viz. That's still masc tho.

One of my favourite genres of animal videos on the internet are the ones where an exotic pet is being held by a person in a way that prompts someone in the comments to ask whether handling this beastie this way is ok and safe. And someone with more experience of these creatures replies something along the lines of

"yeah, that is a fully grown, alert and very healthy adult [latin name], who is displaying excited body language but is moving voluntarily and is clearly not being held against its will. That animal is exactly where it wants to be and if it didn't want to be handled like that, the handler would be missing an arm."

reminder that Gregor Samsa’s first thought to his kafkaesque metamorphosis was “aw shit I still have to go to work”

[hampop]

I’m sorry did you just refer to the metamorphosis in the book Metamorphosis written by Franz Kafka as “Kafkaesque”

The actual equivalent of "it's so over/ we're so back" is just the words for betrayal and victory.

[ukrainian-offical]

For the longest time, historically, it was considered rude to talk about strangers, superiors, and elders in singular. You were supposed to yse plural. Now, that stopped during the Soviet era, for reasons. But i want to bring it back for a brand new, very woke reason. You see, singular pronouns are gendered. But not the plurals. And, well. Awkward situations may arise from assuming gender.

One based thing i do, that is weird others don't, is. Having separate words for the doctors. Doctor the scientific title is доктор, which is the same as doctor. Doctor the medical professional is лікар, or likar, which is similar in etymology to healer, but it's more like. Curer or treater. Which is a factual description of what they do.
