#just like servers that dont allow cursing or respectful uses of the word queer

basically at this point i think anyone who is not upset by words like “adulting” and sentences like “i cant english today” should have a good enough understanding of the english language to understand that using kin as a verb isnt really “incorrect” and almost always makes sense in context and is often actually easier to read and process than more “correct” uses for a lot of people and i honestly think that the problem is that people who treat language more casually are looked down on by polite society and a lot of people who are othered by that society will try to recreate themselves in its image to regain the acceptance they felt in the past and like i do empathize with that but i also dont really get why im supposed to give a shit about other peoples linguistic hangups just to get to stay in a discord server
#this isnt about anything in particular i just had like a weird moment of clarity#where suddenly a lot of things sort of lined up for just long enough for me to put them in words other people could understand#and also i remembered that the word verbing exists and got really happy about it#like seriously what a great word. verbing. whoever coined that is my personal hero for the night#anyways sorry i know i dont usually post stuff like this but i want to be able to reference this in the future#and i will probably never be able to make it make this much sense again#also just to be clear even tho the last bit actually was written with a few specific discord servers in mind#i genuinely do not bear any mods any ill will over this and never have#just in case anyone tries to use this against me someday. for whatever fuckin reason#its just something that makes a lot of servers really uncomfortable for me#just like servers that dont allow cursing or respectful uses of the word queer#something i might consider a dealbreaker in a perfect world but that i ultimately do not mind that much in the grand scheme of things#anyways.#quetzposting#kin discourse#discourse#discourse cw#discourse tw#<- for blacklist#kin
