Slava Ukraini!

Since Russia’s invasion in 2022, thousands of Ukrainian children have been abducted. Yesterday, on World Children’s Day we remembered them and affirmed this truth: their safe return is non-negotiable. Peace is impossible until every child is reunited. I stand with Ukraine.

Memories of June to brighten Mis Du (November - ‘black month’).

I think we may have enough disco lights in the shed now. Maybe.

(It's the first time I've showed my actual face here, btw - hello!)

I see that YouTube is now fucked.
Nothing but AI slop, incel pigshit, cults and conspiracies.

Who asked for this? I'm seriously considering going more or less full analog. The internet now feels like a shitty nighclub where nobody talks to anyone.

I have a syllable, "ha", that means "what?" or "is-it-that...?.

Examples:
Di ang ha? = What is that?
Ha wa ang midhi? = Are you happy?

Thus using the same particle for yes/no or information request questions.

Why is this post semi-censored? I assume the moderation was automatic, but my appeal drew no reponse, so my picture is effectively semi-censored, as it stands.

For clarity, are gibbons not allowed, or are the rules now set by machines without effective human oversight?

A beautiful script - well done!

It's a beautiful language, and strongly retains much of the Old Norse of the 'vikings'. We would all benefit from learning a bit.

It seems like we're getting to a point where, online, you're either in the sewer, or in a state of paranoid sterility. I left Mastadon for similar reasons - censoring the utterly harmless while allowing other, disturbing, shit. I fear the internet's days are numbered.

Edrek rag an skeusen drog ma (orth 10x yw), mes my a gar gybbonyow.

Na wonn vy mar "gybbonyow" yw gwir. Ny allav vy y gavos y'n gerlyvrow.

Sorry for this bad picture (it's at 10x), but I love gibbons.

I don't know if "gybbonyow" is correct. I can't find it in the dictionaries.

Come now! We all know that when a professional uses a word, it means exactly what they say it means, and probably not what everyone else thinks it means. It's important for maintaining the expert's mystique. ;)
