Person listening to music: "Well, I can't understand what they are saying..."
WHY DO YOU CARE??? IF THE WORDS ARE THE FIRST THING YOU LISTEN FOR, WHY NOT READ A POEM INSTEAD??? Are you listening to MUSIC, or NOT???
What if we just started switching the silent letters around…

I may get cancelled for this question. I have a companion novella, and I am considering an AI cover for it since it will be digital only or combined with the main novel in a special edition. I hire a cover artist for the main novels. It won't sell many, is an AI cover ok?
@cvvobh@esp_Andre2 I wouldn't say "us" is grammatically incorrect, because it is more common in speech, likely communicates the idea better, and to the average speaker "feels right." I'd say it's less grammarically perfect.
Oddly enough, this sounds off to many native English speakers too. Kind of stilted and self-consciously grammatical--not the phrase people naturally grow up using. All of the following feel more colloquial:
"Japanese people rely on"
"In Japan, we rely on"
"The Japanese rely on"
"Us Japanese rely on" - grammatically incorrect, but quite common orally
Dear internet,
Enough with the dual authentication. If everything requires dual authentication, then it takes 75 steps to sign into one account because we have dual verify the backup to the backup to the backup to the backup. Just stop.
@evanaustinauthr I especially love how they say the government shouldn't provide services because it's not a good use of tax dollars and that churches and charities should do it instead. YOU COULD DO THAT NOW YOU'RE NOT EVEN PAYING TAXES WHAT'S STOPPING YOU OH I GUESS YOU DON'T REALLY WANT TO.
