all I know is that as a non-native English speaker, it's infinitely weird to me that finite isn't pronounced like the -finite in infinite

I wonder what reparations would even be like in this case... money? Returning stolen artifacts?

so unless tiktok is sold to a US-based company, it will be a bit inconvenient for US users to download the app and keep it updated

is that all? can't these geriatric corporate-owned fucking ghouls understand how toothless this supposed ban is? lmao this is pathetic

therefore there must be a fork where every single time a man had sex he had an additional child

"goddamn why does this keep happening to me?" says the man with 58 children, learning his 59th is on its way

I think it would be way easier, you would just have to wear a dick beanie/thimble for a while

Oh fuck off please, what a fucking whiny baby

McWhorter is another one of these people like Neil Degrasse Tyson, Steven Pinker and Sabine Hossenfelder, who are exceedingly knowledgeable in their fields but seem to think that that automatically makes them smart in other fields where they're not qualified to speak at all.

His podcast Lexicon Valley was one of the first podcasts I got hooked on years ago, and despite his weird obsession with obscure and annoying show tunes, it taught me so goddamn much about linguistics. His voice and cadence may be exactly what I think a bowtie would sound like if it could talk, but man could that guy make me rethink my conception of language.

I was disappointed when he handed the feed off to some other guys and just up and left, presumably to write "[controversial topic] is not what you think"-type essays for The Atlantic, or to be the conservative's favorite based lib talking head.

It's really fucking frustrating when a guy who shared so many insights that are still relevant to me as a language teacher decides to pivot and become a both-sideser turbo liberal who panders to whomever is willing to pay attention to and quote the smart linguistics professor man.
