smoking that shit that makes you plural, smoking that we’d
good morning everyone!! i've been away on holiday for a while since i last typed here, but i've been back and slowly readjusting to uni life 😄💪🌈 today i hope to catch up on everything i didn't manage to do while on holiday - wish me luck! have a lovely day everyone 💕🌊
the "chat is a pronoun" discourse is captivating to me because it goes so far beyond ordinary misinformation
like imagine if suddenly there was a wave of posts saying that Dogs Are Birds, like "omg you guys i just realized dogs are actually birds!!!" and any time anybody said "theyre mammals, not birds" dozens of people would get super defensive about it and make snide condescending posts/comments like "KNOWLEDGE is knowing that dogs arent birds, WISDOM is knowing that taxonomy is fake and all organisms are whatever you want them to be forever, peace and love on planet earth," and they would keep posting about how Dogs Are Totally Birds because "well dogs are majestic and have beautiful voices, like birds" and if you pointed out that those qualities are immeasurable (& have nothing to do with being a bird) and that metric could categorize most animals (& several things that arent animals) as 'birds' they would call you a gatekeeping elitist and say "let people enjoy things" or some thesaurused equivalent, and maybe someone would also say "we're just having a Laff, it's just a fun game dont be so Serious" but they (and a non-insignificant number of other people) otherwise speak as if they believe with conviction that Dogs Really Are Birds, and this is Really Big & Exciting News because Dogs Are The First 4-Legged Bird, and then when people who know biology made posts explaining in-depth what taxonomy is & why dogs arent birds theyd start getting asks like "what about cats, are cats birds??" "are hamsters birds?" "what about sharks??" "i think flies are birds because they have wings." and then imagine this all persisted for more than half a year
1. linguistics is in fact clear that chat isn’t a pronoun
2. it can be interesting and seductive to think about the things we know at a deeply entrenched, axiomatic premise level from a new and different angle
3. op, can you think of anything that might cause people to get super interested in how category structures such as those of linguistics — which are developed by humans as tools for thinking clearly and updated regularly as their thinking develops; they are not evolved by nature or some such god figure for purposes of its own, and they are not immutable realities like the laws of physics prior to the existence of conscious beings trying imperfectly to formulate them — actually work, and in what sense and to what degree they may in fact be mutable and contingent and should be subject to updating as we come to understand the world differently
4. there’s nothing inaccurate in this post, to be clear, but. like. maybe one hazard of a good, wholesome robust immune reaction against misinformation is going a bit too hard, falling into essentialism, and over-reifying the actual science/facts in question? certainly we see this happen in several other domains that get culturally ‘hot’ in our times
ok lets take this one bite at a time
"it can be interesting and seductive to think about the things we know (...) from a new and different angle"
i mean, sure? but that's not what's happening in the discourse this post is about. during the boom of 'chat is a pronoun' posts a couple years back, the headlining statement was never 'i would like to volunteer a new framework for conceptualizing grammar', it was 'chat is a pronoun, and it is a new type of pronoun, and our existing comprehension of english grammar is fully compatible with this new revelation'
"[the category structures] of linguistics (...) are developed by humans as tools (...) they are not immutable realities (...) they [are] mutable and contingent..."
i am aware that language is definitionally not prediscursive. money, labour, culture, cuisine, art, & philosophy are all also things that humans invented: this does not prevent them from having observable patterns & structures, nor does it negate the existence of misinformation about these subjects
"...and should be subject to updating as we see the world differently"
variations on this sentiment are quite common in the 'chat is a pronoun' discourse--ie, 'our existing comprehension of grammar & language is in need of updating'. the thing is, nobody ever seems to get specific about it. i completely agree that science should be updated in accordance with new information & values, but like--what is the new information here? what are we now seeing differently about the world that has outmoded the definition of 'pronoun'? what is the new definition of 'pronoun', & why is it more useful to conceptualize pronouns via this new model? frankly, this is 'tail wags dog'. 'i am wrong about this, therefore the science must be outdated' appeals to what is ultimately a solipsistic mode of thinking. the pyramids were build by aliens, therefore our comprehension of history & architecture is wrong. 2+2=5, so maybe the meaning of 'plus' is in need of an update
"maybe one hazard of a (...) robust immune reaction against misinformation is going a bit too hard, falling into essentialism"
'pronoun' is a descriptive category, & the usage of 'chat' by twitch streamers & people imitating twitch streamers does not fall within that description. i dont see what's essentialist about that.
"over-reifying the actual science/facts in question"
??????????
"there's nothing inaccurate in this post"
this is the thing that really gets me about this reply. you acknowledge that my position is correct, but you seem to think it's wrong for me to voice it, even in so anodyne a fashion as a shitpost musing about how strange the whole situation is. what are we even doing here

ever since i started my masters degree i've been overstimulated and like i've lost my ability to mask as well as i used to❓❓❓❓ which is a little annoying. i don't like having to tell my classmates that i need to go for a bit to decompress 🧍♂️ i also do not like having to put on noise cancelling earplugs in breaks 🥺

my spouse and i disagree
if one were to say "turn the AC down" does that mean
turn the temperature lower (colder)
turn the temperature higher (hotter)
°☆.。.:*美しい虹色の波°☆.。.:*
i can’t lie guys, the first week (or few days i should say) of this master’s degree have been very overwhelming — for the first time in my life i’m doubting whether i can do this or not, and the thought scares me. i would love to talk to someone who’s doing a master about this (particularly someone who’s also audhd but anyone would do). my dms are open 🥹
today i woke up really not feeling like it, but i dragged my ass to uni and now i'm about to study 🥰🌷🌊🌈 yaaay
being lesbian + nb and having one of my fav parts of linguistics be pronouns is so fucking funny like oooh im sure 💀💀💀💀💀💀

you don’t need perfect conditions to start. you just need to start. five minutes of focus is better than waiting for motivation to come.
