11 September 2011 | Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall and Prime Minister David Cameron attend a memorial ceremony at the September 11 memorial garden in Grovesnor Square in London, England. Ceremonies held around the world have joined Washington and New York as they commemorate the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks where nearly 3000 people died when four hijacked airliners were used in coordinated attacks against the United States.

Scandinavian musicians tend to follow their own set of rules in comparison to their peers from other countries and this can be quite pronounced. For instance, Teddybears are quite weird that way. I mean, their gimmick operandi finds them wearing the bear costumes, which resemble those that would've been made in the case Disney remaking Psycho as a horror fable set in the ursine wood. However, don't let the costumes fool you – we are dealing with a fine band that likes to move within different styles. For instance, I'm not shocked the tune on the link was covered by Robyn, since the piece does sounds like something she would've done. Still, Teddybears went there sooner, changing the dancehall into something distinct.

The Origins of 'Y'All' May Not Be in the American South This story was originally published on The Conversation and appears here under a Creative Commons license. Southern Living magazine once described “y’all” as “the quintessential Southern pronoun.” It’s as iconically Southern as sweet tea and grits. While “y’all” is considered slang, it’s a useful word nonetheless. The English language doesn’t have a good second person plural pronoun; “you” can be both singular and plural, but it’s sometimes awkward to use as a plural. It’s almost like there’s a pronoun missing. “Y’all” fills that second person plural slot—as does “you guys,” “youse,” “you-uns,” and a few others. I’m interested in “y’all” because I was born in North Carolina and grew up saying it. I still do, probably a couple dozen times a day, usually without intention or even awareness. As a historian who has researched the early history of the word, I’m also interested in how the word’s use has changed over the years. “Y’all” might serve an important function, but it has acquired negative connotations. Back in 1886, The New York Times ran a piece titled “Odd Southernisms” that described “y’all” as “one of the most ridiculous of all the Southernisms.” That perception has persisted. Like the Southern dialect in general, the use of “y’all” has often been seen as vulgar, low-class, uncultured, and uneducated. As someone noted in Urban Dictionary, “Whoever uses [y’all] sounds like a hillbilly redneck.” In a more recent New York Times essay, writer Maud Newton said that she associated the word with her father, who “defended slavery, demanded the subservience of women, and adhered to ‘spare the rod and spoil the child.’” He also demanded that his children say “y’all” rather than “you guys.” She grew up hating the word. At a time when many Americans are calling for the removal of Confederate monuments and opposing the Lost Cause mythology, “y’all,” with its Southern overtones, might make some people uncomfortable—a misguided reaction, perhaps, but one that has been felt by both those who hear it and those who say it. The word has not always had such negative connotations. The etymology of “y’all” is murky. Some linguists trace it back to the Scots-Irish phrase “ye aw”; others suggest an African American origin, perhaps from the Igbo word for “you” brought over by Nigerian-born enslaved people. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word first appeared in print in 1856, and all of its examples are sources connected to the American South. Michael Montgomery, a noted linguist, said that early use of the word “is unknown in the British Isles.” But recently I used some of the new digital literary databases to search for older uses of the word, and I found over a dozen examples. They were all in dramatic or poetic works dating back to the 17th century and published in London. The earliest “y’all” that I uncovered was in William Lisle’s The Faire Æthiopian, published in 1631: “and this y'all know is true.” My examples push “y’all” back 225 years before the citation in the Oxford English Dictionary, and they show that the word appeared first in England rather than the United States. I think it’s important to point out that it originated in a more formal context than what’s commonly assumed. There are none of the class or cultural connotations of the later American examples. I should also note that there is almost a century-long gap between the last known usage of this British version of “y’all” and the first known usage of the American version. Scholars may well decide that these versions of “y’all” are essentially two different words. Still, there it is, in an English poem written in 1631. Ironically, at the same time that some people have shied away from using “y’all,” the word seems to have grown in popularity. An article on exactly this topic, published in the Journal of English Linguistics in 2000, was titled “The Nationalization of a Southernism.” Based on scientific polling, the authors suggested that “y’all” will soon be seen as an American, rather than Southern, word. There might be several reasons for this. One is that African American use of the word in music and other forms of popular culture has made it more familiar – and, therefore, acceptable – to those who didn’t grow up with it. Second, “you guys,” another common alternative for the second-person plural pronoun, is losing support because of its sexist connotations. Are females included in you guys? How about those who identify as nonbinary? Maud Newton eventually came to embrace “y’all.” When she moved to Tallahassee, Florida, after law school, she found that “in grocery stores and coffee shops, on the street and in the library, everyone—Black and white, queer and straight, working-class and wealthy—used y’all, and soon I did, too.” “Y’all means all”—that’s a wonderful phrase that seems to be popping up everywhere, from t-shirts and book titles to memes and music. A song written by Miranda Lambert for Netflix’s “Queer Eye” beautifully captures the spirit of the phrase: David Parker is a professor of history at Kennesaw State University. https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/yall-southern-pronoun

ben & travis headcanons (updated!) 🫶🏻

— ben ♡

𓈒 ⊹ his full name is benjamin adam paul.

𓈒 ⊹ his birthday is september 23rd, 1986, and he is seventeen during the events of the season one storyline. (semi-confirmed by trevor hoffmann)

𓈒 ⊹ he plays baritone saxiphone.

𓈒 ⊹ he has vasovagal syncope, which is a condition that causes a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure and leads to fainting, typically in reaction to a stressful trigger (— such as blood; this is why he passed out while lee was cutting his arm off).

𓈒 ⊹ he spaces out and gets distracted/lost in thought very easily. his grades aren’t very good because he tends to have trouble focusing on his assignments.

𓈒 ⊹ all of his favorite colors are different shades of blue. he prefers lighter shades, like baby blue and periwinkle.

𓈒 ⊹ he and his little sister, gabrielle (gabby), are very close despite him being seven years older than her. they playfully fight a lot (which mostly just consists of her roasting the shit out of him with no provocation), but aside from that they get along super well. they watch cartoons together after school and ben pushes her on her swingset a lot.

𓈒 ⊹ however, he’s not really any good with kids that aren’t his sister. he gets nervous around them and is perpetually scared that he’ll slip up and swear in front of them or accidentally hurt them somehow.

𓈒 ⊹ nirvana is his all-time favorite band; he’s been listening to them since he was a kid.

𓈒 ⊹ he’s FTM transmasc.

𓈒 ⊹ he doesn’t ever really talk about it, but he’s really into fairytale lore. his dad, richard, read him fairy stories before bed as a kid, and it sort of spiraled from there and never went away. labyrinth (1986) is his favorite movie because it incorporates similar elements.

𓈒 ⊹ his mom, camila, is columbian. he knows a good bit of spanish that she’s taught him and gabby, but it’s gotten a lot rustier over the years.

𓈒 ⊹ the paul family is on the poorer side, and richard and camila have to work a lot. however, they’re both extremely loving and they’re very good parents. when they aren’t busy, they spend time with their kids, doing things such as playing card games with them or taking them for drives through the countryside. because of this, ben finds long car rides relaxing since they always remind him of his family.

𓈒 ⊹ he really likes gummy fruit snacks. he keeps packs of them in his pockets and his backpack in case he, travis, or gabby gets hungry.

𓈒 ⊹ bisexual, though it’s worth noting that he very rarely experiences attraction to anyone other than travis.

𓈒 ⊹ he gives gabby piggyback rides on the walk home from school if she’s tired.

𓈒 ⊹ diehard mitski stan. (modern au)

— travis ♡

𓈒 ⊹ his full name is travis alexander reed.

𓈒 ⊹ he plays trumpet.

𓈒 ⊹ he’s an only child.

𓈒 ⊹ his birthday is feburary 21st, 1986. he often teases ben about being the younger one.

𓈒 ⊹ he’s really close with his dad, suraj, but a lot less so with his mom, natalia, who’s been an absentee mother for the majority of his life, and hardly ever visits or contacts him.

𓈒 ⊹ he’s indian on his dad’s side and italian on his mom’s.

𓈒 ⊹ he has slight jealousy issues and gets huffy and bitchy whenever someone he likes pays what he deems as ‘too much attention’ to anyone who isn’t him.

𓈒 ⊹ in contrast to ben, he’s surprisingly great with kids.

𓈒 ⊹ he gets along well with clementine and even more so with duck, who in the limited time that they have together, he sees as a little brother. (travis lives au)

𓈒 ⊹ gay.

𓈒 ⊹ his first crush as a kid was shaggy rogers. (🤔...)

𓈒 ⊹ he’s a cat person. there are a bunch of stray cats that hang around his neighborhood who he’s befriended by feeding them. if he sees one often enough, he gives it a name.

𓈒 ⊹ after unknowingly eating some of mark’s leg meat on the saint johns’ farm, his relationship with food is damaged irreparably. for a few days afterwards he gives his food to clementine or duck in fear that if he eats anything he’ll get sick and their rations will have gone to waste. once he’s able to stomach anything again, it’s a very gradual readjustment. (travis lives au)

𓈒 ⊹ he’s not the most affectionate person, but he’s very clingy, especially with ben. he usually subconsciously holds into his arm when they walk somewhere or sits with his legs across ben’s lap.

𓈒 ⊹ he puts a lot of effort into his appearance, save for how he dresses. he just wears a black hoodie and jeans 90% of the time.

𓈒 ⊹ his favorite foods are coffee flavored ice cream and dark chocolate. he likes things that taste both bitter and sweet.

𓈒 ⊹ autistic.

𓈒 ⊹ he refuses to tell literally anyone this, but he pretty much exclusively listens to girly pop music.

𓈒 ⊹ avid filthy frank and loiter squad watcher. (modern au)

𓈒 ⊹ has a special interest in birds and knows a bunch of random, useless fun facts about them. he likes hummingbirds the most, but hawks and crows are also high on his list.

— ben & travis (mostly modern au / au where they both survive s1) ♡

𓈒 ⊹ they met in 7th grade when ben first joined the school band. it was essentially the ‘extrovert choosing introvert as their new best friend’ trope. though they both have a few other friends in band (travis moreso than ben), they hang out with each other more often than anyone else.

𓈒 ⊹ they once accidentally put on each other’s jackets while getting dressed one morning, much to the immense horror of everyone else in the group who noticed.

𓈒 ⊹ they have joint custody of a nintendo switch. travis mostly plays minecraft, and ben likes animal crossing.

𓈒 ⊹ on rare occasions they play mario kart together. ben mains luigi and travis plays as either daisy or toad. they shit talk each other about how they’re going to beat the other one and then both end up in like 8th and 10th place. they’re mortified every individual time and don’t play again for a while.

𓈒 ⊹ on even rarer occasions (and an unrelated note) they smoke weed or take edibles; usually the latter, and usually on winter/fall/spring break so they don’t end up accidentally going to school stoned.

𓈒 ⊹ travis is a terrible driver. ben is pretty much always the one to take them places, out of concern for the safety of everyone involved.

𓈒 ⊹ they eventually have a daughter together, who they name janey. her full name is janey parker paul. her middle name is after david.

𓈒 ⊹ travis falls asleep on ben a lot, usually with his head on his shoulder or chest.

𓈒 ⊹ they call each other “bro” romantically.

𓈒 ⊹ ben’s favorite features on travis are his hair and his freckles. travis likes ben’s eyes and how tall he is.

𓈒 ⊹ travis thinks it’s really funny to say stupid nonsensical pick-up lines to ben to confuse him. (“if i were dating you. let’s just say horses wouldn’t be called ‘horses’ anymore.” “hey what the fuck does this mean” type things)

𓈒 ⊹ they’re each fairly annoying separately, but they’re a lot more annoying when they’re together. we should all pray for david and his sanity.

𓈒 ⊹ both of them are super cold-sensitive. during the autumn and winter months they spend half the time cuddled up together or sharing a blanket to keep warm.
