Damn. That Fox news article was absolute trash. 🤔Thanks for providing a more reputable news link!

I can't believe this map includes Castile, but does not make any mention of Al-Andalus. That's one of the most interesting epochs of Iberian history!

Organically developed, like, a community making a new word that fills a lexical need to describe a concept? Sounds a lot like "Mx." to me. What's stupid about it?

I usually hear it as "mix".

All titles are "made up," and Mx. as an honorific has been around for almost fifty years. A better question would be why our two main honorifics for people are so pointlessly gendered.

I still use Skiplagged pretty exclusively.

Thanks for the tip! I have it on my wishlist; can't wait to start collecting some destiny stars again! 🐱🐱

Final Fantasy Tactics, Valkyrie Profile, and Suikoden 2!

Still waiting for all of these to someday port to Steam. 😅

For convoluted linguistic reasons, "x and me," is correct and the default expression in English for this type of subject. If I recall, "x and I" is how it would be said in Latin, and I believe the desire to sound more educated // "proper" (like Latin) was the original reason that this phrase was pushed onto children in schools, by well-intentioned but ignorant school masters.

Yes! I've also been doing a Spooky Season last month and this one with some of the same classics - Frankenstein, Dracula, The Invisible Man, and now Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

I had never read any of them before! Based on the popular conceptions versus the reality of the text, I'd say Frankenstein was the most interesting.

Yes! I route my cell phone's traffic through Adguard DNS and roughly HALF the phone's traffic each month is blocked as tracking activity. I knew the spying was bad, but I thought I had already installed some browser tools to cut through the thicket. Yeesh.
