I still see blue checks in Twitter that need to reply with “*you’re” kinda bullshit. I do reread some of my posts and I see them littered with mobile edits or just bullshit language that only made sense to my brain at 2am. Thanks everybody for being chill about language. I still (wrongly) imagine that I’m very good with writing, and seeing my own writing some time after it’s been published is a nice kick of humility.
actually one of my most consistent spelling Ls. like, okay–it’s pronounced sehp-reht as an adjective and seh-puh-reit as a verb (at least in either americana or just where I live regionally), the only indicator for the second vowel verbally is either not there at all or reduced to schwa, so my brain goes “Okay, what’s the closest sound and spelled word to it that I can reference…sever?” and then it’s an a, because fuck you for assuming anything about english through context i guess
