How are you pronouncing Yuri so it doesn't rhyme with Missouri
i think i pronounce yuri the same way everyone else does. Instead of pronouncing Missouri “Mizz-er-ie” as in rhymes with misery, I say “Mizz-er-uh” as in rhymes with um. bureau? thorough? those are all affected. Zathura?

As I've gotten older, I've really realized that my grandfather, dad, and I are all like if you did a social experiment and raised the same person in three different environments. My grandfather ended up being a recovering/repentive racist/homophobe, judge, and diplomat. My dad ended up being a priest, washed up opera star, and massive stoner. I don't know what I've ended up as yet. All three of us think identically and contextualize things the same way based on the information we've been given. I told my dad that he is not immune to being hateful when he said some really off color things about trans ppl (he had a TERF phase) because he is just as much at the control of his circumstances as his dad, and he just kinda stared at me at me for a while and apologized several years later. Nobody is immune to being hateful.

im very bitter that a large percentage of my grandparents and older relatives died before i was old enough to inherit anything cool from them. Like most of them died before I was even a teen and in the midst of adult grief no one really thinks or cares about which of grandma’s possessions the 10-year-old might want to have in the future.
