@gaditb okay extremely cool pull, but ngl my second reaction (the preceding having been both my first and third reactions) was "damnit this also has no discussion of how or why they continue to fly the possibly formerly better route instead of a now more direct one"
nobody talks about how weird it is that a common way for phonemic distinctions in languages to develop is when there's a single phoneme that has different allophones in different context and some aspect of the conditioning environment for an allophone disappears but they keep saying the allophone in words that used to have the right environment and therefore they're now in distinction
like why do we keep using the old (former-)allophone instead of changing to what would normally be expected in that environment.

food, argentina facts
in argentina things don't typically say something analogous to gluten-free ("libre de gluten", "sin gluten", etc.). more usually foods are labelled as "sin TACC", which is short for wheat, oats, barley, and rye ("sin" meaning "without")
cause like sure it is on some level reassuring that 100% of uses of that name referred to the friend who continues to have that name and that none of our mutual friends gave any sign of even momentarily considering it as potentially ambiguous.
but also 100% of uses made me double take a moment before i parsed that they were talking to him.
surprising thing i learned this weekend is that spending much time around people with my deadname would be kinda hellish

@Lady whoa i forgot houndour is a kanto-only mon from gen 2.
one time my mother-in-law used the comparison "Buenos Aires is the West of Argentina" to clarify that the rest of the country dislikes it.
people sure do like to try to blackmail murderers in columbo
solaris is kind of an underwhelming film
girl-like-substance’s writing really makes one wish you had stories you needed to tell.
