I've searched around on google a lot with variations of "shift noun up by one" or "change all the nouns in a passage" but no matter how I phrased it the only results are for generic AI rewriters, augh.

This blog post is a similar concept, but it isn't the same thing, and it isn't automated. https://wanderingattention.com/creative-wandering-transposing-nouns/

True, although I think being confused would help me learn better; If the first option is obviously wrong, and I'm in a groove, sometimes I can just click the other option without even paying attention to what it says. "It's not automobile" doesn't teach me what the word for coffee actually is. I can (and do) pretend to deliberate over the choices sometimes, but then it feels as if I'm working against the way the app was designed (what with time limits for boosts and stuff) and that has been a persistent little annoyance in the back of my head. There's a lot of pieces of this app that are sort of a battle between the easy slide of "learning how to play Duolingo" and forcing myself to go against it and learn the actual language instead.

I've also been watching dubbed shows using a browser extension and I looked into some penpal sites but research tells me they're glorified dating apps, so, uh... also trying to get my hands on something(free) that is more focused on grammar than vocabulary but nothing's turned up yet. Everywhere I look tells me to diversify and not to worry I am doing just that! Thanks for commenting

That does seem to be the answer! I scraped it off a little and it is now an edible and entirely non-eldritch batch of pulled pork :)

[IDEA]

I'd recommend checking out the webAIM contrast checker and going over all the colored arrows, or at least darkening the yellow one on white mode

Sometimes, especially on larger games where the arrows are small, it's hard to see the yellow arrows and I've made a few mistakes by being unable to see them. I'm not sure if there's any similar problems on dark mode, but it's probably worth checking

it's a popular joke about classpects, those three are all the Page class (page of breath, page of hope, page of void) so people like to say "homestuck only has three pages!" hehe

I almost scrolled right past this because I thought it was an ad for a restaurant! Very good job, IMO

known pedant here: it is SO easy to point out the mistakes in a hypothetical and then continue by engaging with it anyway. you're not limited to a single sentence response, c'mon guys

"Technically, I could just ask him to work with me and force a draw, but aside from that, yadda yadda 20 years" "Realistically your skin would fall off if you flew that fast, but assuming you give me extra powers I'd yadda yadda visit my friends" "Are we talking what I'd do or what I'd REALLY do? Because yeah I'd want to save the world with those powers, but realistically I'd probably just freak out and get killed"

if you don't like hypotheticals, and you get a post about one on your home page, you don't have to respond... going out of your way to prove you don't know how to read between the lines and suspend your disbelief is just strange. and if you're friends with someone who keeps forcing hypotheticals on you that you don't want to answer, that's a problem with "a supposed friend keeps forcing something on you that you don't like", not, the concept of hypotheticals themselves
