I wish that too and to change that, we need to help both victims and bullies since both are victims of the system
I was bullied as a kid and grew as a person
More often than not people become bullies because they have a hard life in the first place. So, sure, feel superior and have this “gatcha” moment or grow up and feel bad for these people, it’s your choice
That’s pretty soon
Lol, this doesn’t make any sense at all.
It’s Late July obviously
The graph doesn’t show it’s going up. Ay source for that?
Of cause! Without a date, the dog could be 22 by now, or even 23 from all we know!!
Is there a signature? Because otherwise it’s totally fake
Makes sense. Vaccines saves lifes. That’s something you have to compensate for.
I don’t know if that’s him but somewhere in Germany you got a bratwurst (is that word known in the English world? It’s a sausage) for vacation and, yes, someone got more than one shot
Thanks. I edited it because I sea it’s confusing (different from the typo in this comment)
I remember people whining that lemmy is on its decline already. We are back and here to stay
(Edit typo)
I just today watch an episode where someone said “you are the thing I love most” to a person as if it was a sign or something but it’s just selective memory.
I’m sorry for being stupid I guess. We are all here to learn.
Why didn’t you say:
Hate to anthropomorphise animals but it looks like it’s smiling, like a big shit eating grin.
Or stuff still feels more neutral. But I’m not a native speaker of English so maybe “thing” isn’t as derogative as it sounds to me
Don’t call animals “things” but I see what you mean
Isa 43:1:
But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
I don’t think that’s the reason, just an association I had
A true descriptivist will describe the effects, prescriptivism has on language #toleranceparadox
But your right, it isn’t linguistics since science is always descriptive.
Tbh prescriptivism has its place in official over regional communication and language learning. We wouldn’t understand each other if we were writing each in their local dialect and when you start learning a language, you don’t want to first need an overview of the dialect continuum.
That said, in unofficial writing it doesn’t matter as long as you write intelligible and advanced language learners should learn about varieties. I for example was tought British English at the start and in the 4th year, we learned about American English and the differences to British English.
I remember I had a version on my computer (or the family computer) but it didn’t make much sense that way
