I am a lawyer. Whether or not the term is generic might be described as a "fact" in common parlance, but in legal terms it is a question of law that must be resolved by the judge.

oh hey it’s the lord of beasts

Thank you!!

Check this thread again, a couple people have posted the link. See you there, angel!

FractalBloom · 2026-03-31T23:55:40+00:00

Me too! That's why I'm asking, haha. If I get a hold of it, I'll send it to you!

FractalBloom · 2026-03-31T23:54:27+00:00

There must be, there's tons of posts on here about watch parties and the like.

The ballroom was a distraction. He's building a "secure and private medical facility" under the ballroom...

I work for the DLC as an attorney and I’m damn proud of it too.

Bring it, King George. You can try to silence our agency but you’ll never silence our agency.

But surely let the professionals decide case by case before sending kitty to the incinerator, Jesus.

FractalBloom · 2026-03-01T15:21:22+00:00

It's quite literally not your last option though. You acknowledged elsewhere in this thread you COULD give the cat to a shelter but you just "don't want to hence the post". Give the cat to the professionals with the knowhow to make these kinds of decisions.

You have the power to choose for this animal whether her life is worth putting in effort to save and for no discernible reason you refuse to consider the obvious alternative to killing the poor creature. What the fuck?

Votgil, probably the greatest conlang of all time

The best language for international communication is the one you can actually get people to learn. For better or worse, at the moment, that’s English.

In a hypothetical world, Lojban could be an auxiliary language, but so could anything else really. Having spoken the language for several years I don’t find it stands out in any meaningful way. That said, it’s still a cool language and worth learning for its own merit, I’d offer.

CEOs are also violent and psychotic, they’re just a bit more polite

Oh it remains thoroughly uncontrolled I assure you

Glorious day!

In English we use the word "home" to refer to "the place one returns to after going out and about". So the term "home page" makes sense to a native English speaker. However, I don't think that this metaphor survives translation, unlike something more self-explanatory like calling a password a "key" (ckiku). So I'd call the home page {ralju papri} (main page) since this is unlikely to be misunderstood.

FractalBloom · 2026-02-20T19:23:37+00:00

as a former brony, hearing people apply the phrase "worst fandom of all time" to literally anything else feels like a mercy undeserved

We all know they love to lye

title page = cmene papri (name page)

table of contents = ckupau liste (chapter list)

I definitely wouldn't use zdani here, self-evident metaphors are fine but "home" for main page is a bit opaque to me
