You say ‘politics’ like it is some trivial thing. Politics involves beliefs on personhood, human rights, racism, equity, crime and punishment, and fundamental ideas about morality. I think it is totally appropriate to make judgments about a person’s character based on their politics.
Hi! I use a fountain pen all the time. I learned to use one as an exchange student: at my school in Belgium, all work needed to be completed in fountain pen (this was in 1996, which i just now realize is almost 30 years ago).
i hate talking on the phone and i zoom all day at work, so i recently decided to start sending longhand letters to my old friends and distant family. I’ve had pretty good response, though a few people seemed puzzled.

Hi! With the OED, it has been like that at least since I started university in 2007. However, lots of public libraries have subscriptions.

Edit: you can check merriam-webster for free, I think
Different child field? This is like my first two read-throughs of a new paper in my own specialization!
Me too. But i’m gonna fight these fuckers anyway. Please hang in there. I don’t want to fight alone.
