how common is plum jam in the US? i feel like i do not remember ever seeing it. here it is very common
is it making the same consonant twice in a row? is it a single consonant but longer? does it matter? who can say
i think maybe nobody in the whole world has ever been sure what exactly a geminate consonant is
possibly undesirable conlanging outcomes, bodily fluids
oops, maybe i should either not have chosen "p-s-ŋ" as the root for liquids and also decided to have most patterns for forming nouns insert "i" between the first two consonants of the root.
el secreto de sus ojos in fact a pretty good movie
english translation
bad luck for my learning that the school near the apartment (and that we can hear every day) has a bilingual program, and the part we can hear is often the english part.
mala suerte para mi aprendizaje que el colegio cerca del departamento (y el que podemos escuchar cada día) tiene un programa bilingüe y la parte que podemos escuchar a menudo es la de inglés.
is there any foss application out there to let me take a pdf and edit its like, outline/bookmarks/whatever-you-call-that?
there are like a billion applications to edit pdfs in various ways that don't seem to have this feature.
for example, not far from here is Villa Martelli. which has two different sounds for “ll”for reasons entirely unpredictable from the words in themselves.
slightly amusing that spanish as it is actually used ends up having an inconsistent sound-spelling correspondence for similar reasons to (some of) the much more extensive inconsistencies in English sound-spelling correspondence.
i think sofi and i are currently tied at truco this month (6-6 if i counted right)
la novia ensangrentada is not my favorite Carmilla adaptation.
(i say, comparing it to Jenny Hval’s album Blood Bitch)
sofi's and my estimate of the closest any known living thing has gotten to the sun is:
people on the ISS at perihelion of Earth's orbit (in early January), probably. if any of the moon landings happened during a new moon in or around january they probably win but we didn't manage to find such a case (we found crescent moon landings in july and gibbous in december/february)
won a game of truco against my wife for the first time
awkward moment where i forgot that responding "envido" to "envido" in truco is a raise and not just accepting. when my wife was 4 points from winning.

hmm, haven't found a good sport to watch now. i think maybe most sports are just kinda boring in comparison to archery.
olympics

olympics
archery is unexpectedly exciting.
