9 days agoWhen talking about a group but only one individual of the group is present you can still use y’all.
I play guitar, watch USMLR and NHL, occasionally brew beer, enjoy live music and travel, and practice sarcasm.

My feed is currently like 2 people, plus a bunch of dead accounts from people who dipped their toe in but didn’t stay.
For me a lot of those toe dippers were subsequently found to have settled on BlueSky.
Just pay your taxes jackass.
The worst is when a language formally has a disambiguating word but then speakers all just decide to not use it.
