capitalism 

if capitalists had their way they'd lock the fire exits and make you work until you died. we know this because it actually happened. the laws preventing it didn't come from nowhere

@starfall 8 hours a day 5 days a week is a lot!! I really hate that it's seen as "normal" because that's pretty much half of most people's waking hours for the majority of the week! That's a lot!

all the communists and anarchists I know just want humble lives where we don't live paycheck to paycheck, we all want to just like, farm or something. we don't even hate work, we just want to fucking survive! is it too much to ask that we not sacrifice ourselves in the millions to save your FUCKING *BONUSES?*

hey dm me if you wanna join a gayming discord server

saw a take and just

please remember that getting the 40 hour work week to guarantee everything folks need to survive is only the first step

don't forget disabled folks in your revolutionary fantasies

(and let's be real, even temporarily-abled folks can't sustain a 40 hour week by themselves. maintaining continued existence takes labor too, and you can't do that if you're physically or mentally exhausted after an 8 hour work day.)

small clarification to this question: i'm making a natural-ish artlang for a fantasy setting, so considerations that would benefit auxlangs may not be quite as appropriate - i'd like it to feel more realistic and less constructed if possible

but really any advice helps

I just found this podcast called The Queer Arabs podcast and it seems very cool

They do most episodes in English but some in Arabic and I'm excited to practice my Arabic and hopefully learn some queer words in Arabic

I thought other folks might be interested in it too!

Still losing it at this attempted buzzword for "short webinar that doesn't teach you much"

hey types, how do you approach developing a language's vocabulary? especially in terms of what should be a root versus what should be derived from other words
