I know that hr existed in old english (the name of beowulf's sword, hrunting, is the first example that comes to mind), and hn existed in some related languages (the ancient game hnefatafl comes to mind), but they aren't in modern english

sr is common in south asian languages

sv exists in a few names like sven, but not really in any words? okay two people have pointed out svelte since we started typing this okay

that was weird

there was some kind of outage or something overnight, at exactly midnight--the clock on our oven was flashing but had the time right, so it must have been midnight when it lost power

also, the breaker to our bedroom and office was tripped; I don't know what that's about as the only loads are a computer, a printer, and a couple miscellaneous chargers

i wanted to make some kind of joke here about a grammar supercollider and trying to confirm the existence of low-coupling words but i can't think of any way to make it work

Driving home from work, we were right behind someone driving a car that claimed to be a Kia Telluride. I can't help but wonder why on earth they would name a model of car "Telluride".

the use of "not now" as a general text field for buttons that used to say "cancel" or "dismiss" is some serious psychological warfare

what the fuck does "bogos binted" mean
