I'm fine with language evolving; my issue is that there used to be a word that succinctly conveyed a particular idea, and now there is no way to concisely convey that idea in English.
"Gay" changing its meaning isn't the same thing, because there are still plenty of ways of saying "happy" in English.
The lefty side of me thinks: "We're nominating a former prosecutor...what did we expect?"
The practical side of me thinks: "This is like Palestine/Israel. Sure, Harris could be better on this issue...but Trump is still a hundred times worse."
The word "literally" has been forever ruined by people who use it to mean "figuratively." Worse, there is now literally no way to actually convey the original meaning of the word "literally" in a concise, clear way.
You have to say something like, "A is literally 10 times bigger than B...and I mean that ACTUALLY literally." And then people will STILL assume that you're speaking figuratively.
I don't think, therefore I tweet.
Someone needs to take the "He's an angry man" quote and overlay it onto various clips of Trump's weird-ass rants.
I mean, he already picked a live rat for his running mate...
Weirdos.
I pity the poor fool who sets up their smart TV instead of just grabbing an HDMI cable and plugging in their computer.
File this under "least surprising revelations of all time."
Couldn't Congress also pass a law restricting the scope of SCOTUS's authority? Seems like that might be the easiest path forward.
The happiest place on earth, y'all!
Oh, I agree completely. I think it's disgusting how the right has succeeded in shifting the Overton window a ridiculous amount over the past decade or so.
