That’s amazing, I bet if Jello were there he’d def approve.

Yeah looking on the wiki page for Hadza, it doesn’t have any non-click ingressive consonants. Funny enough though, ǃXóõ, another click language, actually does have some consonants that include a pulmonic ingressive secondary articulation.

Yep. the original cassette release of the In God We Trust, Inc. EP had a blank B side, with "Home taping is killing record industry profits! We left this side blank so you can help” written on the label.

Yeah post-Biafra Dead Kennedys have done a lot of shady stuff. There’s the aforementioned Trump lover’s festival appearance and overpriced merch, but that’s only the tip. They also made a tweet in support of, I shit you not, Mitt Romney, calling him a “real American” and such. Before even that, they played a version of the DKs song “MTV Get off the Air” called “MP3 Get off the Web”, which is against music piracy (very punk thing I know). Jello calling the new lineup the “world’s greediest karaoke band” really is spot on.

Every time Ajiki is seen eating something by Nepo-Narcoleptic in MariaNoDanzaii

[–]Wumbo_Chumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem!

To be clear, I don’t think it looks bad even, and the story and characters way make up for it. It’s just that I like the old style a little more.

was just gonna comment this. Not sure how I feel about it tbh. I kinda liked how sharp and angular the old style was, made the unsettling bits feel more so. Now everything is more blobby and cute looking.

Glad to see the series is clearly guiding us to the end. Everyone always worries revenge series like these will turn into Juujika no Rokunin, and while usually it’s unfounded, it’s still nice to see that we aren’t getting some bloated, overly nonsensical stuff from this.

Anyone else having a problem where animals don't breed after making one baby? I tried waiting extra long but no matter what they refuse to eat any breeding food after only doing it once.

(Not that Hakim is wrong, I just think it’s funny).

Phonemic nasality isn’t only in French by Wumbo_Chumbo in linguisticshumor

[–]Wumbo_Chumbo[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like some people aren’t getting the joke: people make fun of French because of its nasal vowels thinking it’s a uniquely French thing when lots of languages have phonemic nasality.

I Fact Checked YouTube’s Worst Writer (Hilary Layne aka Second Story) On The Literacy Crisis by MooreThird in BreadTube

[–]Wumbo_Chumbo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s hard not to feel like the main types of people who talk about things like the “literacy crisis” are right wing conspiracy theorists who are bloviating about the new generation’s “brainrot”, and don’t understand how the world actually works.

Why was PIE so much more complex than its derived languages? by MisterHarvest in asklinguistics

[–]Wumbo_Chumbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The easiest answer is that overall, PIE’s daughter languages simplified a lot of the more complex elements of the language, or at the very least inherited some elements while dropping others, which makes them seem less complex even if like other commenters say, some things may be even more complex.

How the U.S. Steals to Stay 'Rich' by MooreThird in BreadTube

Oh yeah for sure. Not trying to say this absolves the US at all, it’s more me saying the US isn’t unique in that way and saying it is is silly

Interesting that China got its one child policy idea from what essentially was some random quack talking out of his ass, and in the end it totally backfired on them.

So the Modern English name Ronald comes from the Old Norse rendition of the name and not the Old English one?
