        Joining ‘every’ and ‘time’ like that is so triggering, like ‘aswell’ (when not talking about waves) and ‘atleast’. Kudos for the attention to detail.

        I suppose since that because he still got the intended meaning from the spelling, you are right but it still bothers me when it makes written language harder to parse.

          yeah, a lot of white people see it as nothing more than “trendy internet slang” or “gen z slang” and use it accordingly… tbh, it’s a really gross thing to do to a dialect that is so often ridiculed and mocked by those same white people (frankly i’d even say the reduction to “internet slang” is part of the ridicule)

        😭 is the emoji for exocrine

        spoiler

        lacrimal glands, where tears are produced, are actually a type of exocrine gland.

        The crine in endocrine and exocrine come from Ancient Greek κρίνω (krínō) which has many definitions, allegedly including “to separate, also to secrete”… Except, does it? The “to secrete” meaning of κρίνω was actually only added to wiktionary by a random IP address in 2023.

        I’m crine. (From Scots crine (“to shrivel”), from Scottish Gaelic crìon (“withered”), from Old Irish crín.) 🫠

      I did not in any way understand they were trying to say “crying” until I saw your comment.

      I read it as though it was pronounced like it rhymed with the “trine” bit of “latrine”.

    One is a symptom of the other. All the tech companies went insane in the covid years, gorged on free debt and infinite demand for their services. A drug high that would never end… until it did, of course.

    Now they’re all blowing their banks out trying to recapture the magic of that era, with “”“AI”“” as their supposedly-golden ticket. A shame it’ll all come crashing down soon, and take the world economy with it.
