my pronoun pet peeve is people using "themselves" instead of "themself" as the reflexive form of the singular "they" you've just made it unambiguously plural now what are you doing

It seems like a good day to rec fics so. Recommend me a fic of yours that you feel deserves more love (for example got less than 1k hits, no comments, less than 50 kudos, super obscure rarepair, etc)

I am anti-fascist. I think fascism is bad and hurts people. I am proud that my grandfather, a US Army officer and immigrant, fought the fascists in WWII and won. I guess that makes me a terrorist now, according to the White House? […] [Original post on aoir.social]

Tofu skin stir fry. Not sure if I prepped it right (first time trying and the soaking instructions on the package were sparse) but I thought it turned out good!

Old Man Cat is going through a phase where he will only drink water out of the dog's bowl, but only after demanding I clean it out and put fresh water in it because the dog drank out of it first and left dog backwash. LIke bro what did you expect.

Watched this video recently https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec0-sz77kjE tl;dw there's a particular grammatical quirk of some English dialects from New Jersey and Canada where they use "to be" to denote something being completed where "standard" American English would use "to have"; e.g. "I'm […]
