@coriander it used to be you could do transcription but that’s been eaten by AI
@djsundog (importantly, 8tracks was technically not a streaming service, but an internet radio service running highly personal tiny programs curated by human DJs)
@djsundog i would love to receive a mix CD, but even in the digital realm, the only playlist service which came close to replacing it was 8tracks
a significant amount of my music library is not on streaming services. if you won't let me upload my own music, you are useless to me.
(8tracks was great tho)
@bea people just do that one anyways haha
but yeah very atypical weather for the midatlantic; hopefully it will end soon
@bea we haven’t had rain in months
@coriander which is to say, no
some interesting stuff happened there tho
@coriander it’s kind of like London but with more ennui
@akjcv i would call this “reification” but i’m not sure there’s an accepted term in litcrit circles
a humorous fact for you in these trying times
@coriander every time i encounter a german pokémon i’m like “somebody nicknamed it THAT?!” and then no that’s just its legit german name
linguistics question
@alyssa the alternative form of “the two of us” is “we/us two”, not “our two”, agreed
but i think “we two” and “religious freedom” are in fact very similar; “we” (or “of us”) is specifying WHICH two just as “religious” (or “of religion”) is specifying WHICH freedom
“the two of us” for me is not meaningfully different from “the two who came first”; the equivalency between two and us just comes from implication because otherwise there is not enough information to identify among us which definite two are intended
but compare “of the many pokémon, i like the two of them” (nonsensical) and “of the many pokémon, i like the two of them who are Normal / Ghost type” (sensical, even though “two” and “them” (pokémon) are not equivalent)
and by the same metric, “the two of us who arrived last”
