#grammar. my worst enemy. i know it on an intuitive level. but trying to explain it???? horrifying. awful

...oh no. Neverafter is, genuinely, a perfect angle for a Master thesis, especially with the two ideas I currently have in mind. I have a deep love for fairy tales, and this campaign is very intriguing to me (just started it, no I'm not procrastinating an exam what-). I'm still going to angle my first idea around Burrow's End (it's quite literally the best thing ever), I'm looking at Neverafter, believe you me.

Anyway. Off I go watching more Neverafter instead of doing my Middle English exam. Oh well.

#text_loke #can you tell i'm suffering and wanting to do ANYTHING else? #oh SHIT i need to write down my ideas for my thesis and send it off to a couple professors. i need feedback #because i want to write about ttrpgs for my masters. specifically burrow's end because like. it rewired my brain so much #and aabria's storytelling is fucking incredible. it did something to my brain. i cannot ever let it go #also like?? as a narrative story???? it's so good and deserves to be analysed #and also discussed in relation to player choice and collective storytelling because BOY it's poetic #the story is just so fucking poetic and wonderful #can you tell i am stressed and wanting nothing more than to write my masters instead of this fucking exam??? #grammar. my worst enemy. i know it on an intuitive level. but trying to explain it???? horrifying. awful #anyway. wanna know a fun fact? anyone who says they/them/their is not a valid pronoun is a fucking idiot! #especially if they say it's 'recent' or whatever other bull they pull. because haha! fun fact!! it's older than our usage of it/its and you #like. it was introduced into Middle English around the Conquest of Normandy from Old Norse and has remained in the language ever since! #a lot of other pronouns from that time have gone away but not they/them/their! in fact! the 'she' spelling is YOUNGER than they/them/their! #love that i have that knowledge now :) i may suffer this topic but at least the knowledge i remember is useful :D #like do not get me wrong though. this topic IS incredibly interesting to me. i just have a shit memory and am currently soooo scatterbraine #but yeah. ya boy is struggling and only want to think about DnD....
