whenever people start going on about languages and culture in the server i suddenly go into observer mode even if i like all of those things and want to contribute to the conversation +

like yea!!! it's v interesting and i wan talk about mine but i dont wanna undermine the current language that's being discussed amd then whoops looks like they changed topics haha too late for me +

this entire thread is just me wanting to be in a linguistics class and it shows. WHY DO I HAVE TO BE A STEM STUDENT I HATE IT HERE. CULTURE AND SOCIETY IS SO COOL YET FRUSTRATING +

like, have you Seen a science oriented teacher who really Gets It? no, all of the cool teachers are either ap or english teachers because they understand the people around them and apply that to their work!! +

that being said, please add linguistics/culture based classes to stem courses as general studies, please i am begging so many people would benefit from more ethical scientists who aren't socially awkward +

nothing prompted this thread, i just like to ramble into the void about how much i think cool language is then i just keep going on tangents until ive connected every dot +

also, i noticed i dont put a lot of periods into my sentences which could be very frustrating for someone learning english. like, where does this sentence end?? what do you mean that these are two separate thoughts that you didnt bother to separate? +

you separate them based on Vibes? what does that mean there's a pause there and i should just Know it? language is so cool bc i could put two unrelated words next to each other and an eng learner would try to connect them then id just go "lol na i jus felt like it" +

language makes no fucking sense and i am Here for it
