There is one big issue with gender neutral language in English for nonbinary etc people like myself.

Titles/Honorifics

It's one that's had a lot of debate and many proposed solutions over the years (including Mx. which works for some people but I find clumsy), but I think I've solved it with the help of etymology and Wikipedia

Mr. and Mrs. are both from Master and mistress, and if you trace them back they go to Magister, and then to Magis

Which is related to both Mage, and Maestro, and means roughly the same things as Mister and Mistress

So I suggest (and really enjoy the idea of) perhaps adding Mgs. to Mr. and Mrs., pronounced "Magis"

Which could be used in a spousal way and as a title of respect

When I tried to do similar things for Sir and Ma'am, they come from different roots and so I can't quite as easily do this tracing back and abbreviating, but I am attempting it anyway. (I will update if I find anything worthwhile)

I get not many people are willing or able to change their language in such a forced way like this, and that language is supposed to evolve fluidly forward and not by haltingly filling in gaps left by the gender binary we already have built in to English, but I wonder if Mgs. would catch on...

(Also Mgs. [My last name] sounds reallllllly cool, try it out)

August 6, 1922 Mr. and Mrs. by Clare Briggs

"God forbid I even think about doing such a foolhardy thing as embracing my own independence and changing my image without consulting a man!" - Woman Written By a Man

TOP PANEL [ID: Joe and Vi sit in side-by-side armchairs. Joe tries to read the paper while Vi, visibly frustrated, talks to him. /end] Joe: Go ahead, bob your hair if you think it's smart. Vi: I never can tell whether you're serious or not. Now, honest, shall I bob my hair or NOT?

MAIN COMIC [ID: Vi and Gussie sit in opposing seats - Vi's an armchair, Gussie's a wicker loveseat. Vi leans forward to instruct Gussie, who listens as she adjusts her hairdo. /end] Vi: Gussie! I've a very wonderful idea... about you! Gussie: ABOUT ME!? What is it, Aunty?

[ID: Vi stands up and looks around fearfully as she walks up closer to a startled Gussie. /end] Vi: Sh-h-h-! I wouldn't have your Uncle Joe hear this for the world. Gussie: What is it?

[ID: Vi sternly points towards a horrified Gussie, who begins backing away from her. /end] Vi: Have your hair bobbed!! Gussie [loud shrieks!]: Aunty Vi!!

[ID: Vi patiently explains herself to a sobbing Gussie. /end] Vi: Think how lovely you'll look!!! I know Wallie would adore it that way. Gussie: Oh, I just can't THINK of it. It's terrible! Terrible!

[ID: Vi whispers secretively to a crying Gussie and points behind her back. /end] Vi: I'll go and ask your Uncle Joe what HE thinks of it. He'll most likely be furious at the idea and that'll end it. You wait here. Gussie: Oh, I'm SURE he won't like it. It's too wicked to cut my lovely hair all off.

[ID: Gussie stares into the mirror of her vanity cabinet, daydreaming about a horrible bobbed-short hairstyle she could potentially have. /end] Gussie: Oh, DEAR! I wonder how I WOULD look!? I wonder what Wallie would say!? Oh, DEAR! I WOULD kinda like to try it. Maybe it would be becoming to me. Why not?

[ID: Vi walks up behind Joe, who's at his own vanity cabinet, emptying a bottle of hair tonic onto his balding head. /end] Vi: Joe, dear? Joe: Yes...?

[ID: Joe leans back on the cabinet to face Vi, casually massaging his scalp with both hands. /end] Vi: What do you think of bobbed hair? Joe: Swell.

[ID: He turns back around and lifts the bottle over his head again. Vi reacts with horrified shock. /end] Joe: I think you ought to have it done. It looks swell. Vi: ME!

[ID: Vi rushes out of the room. Joe turns around, massaging his scalp again as he replies. /end] Vi: Oh, I must tell Gussie! Joe: You bet I like bobbed hair. Short skirts, too, and one piece bathing suits! I'm for the flapper every day in the week!

[ID: Vi, horrified, grabs Gussie and gives her the news. Gussie is taken aback. /end] Gussie: Wh-what'd he say!? Vi: Gussie! He wants ME. ME!! To have mine bobbed, TOO!

[ID: They both sob together on a low backless couch covered in throw pillows. Each woman holds a handkerchief to her eye, Gussie holds up a hand mirror. /end] Vi & Gussie: Our beautiful hair! Oh, it is terrible. Let's wait and ask Wallie's opinion. Boo-hoo-hoo.

I know this is a tiny part of the wider problems born of diet culture, fatphobia, classism, and racism but like god the idea that "healthy" food must inherently taste bad has completely ruined us as a society.

ok so for those of you who don’t know, there’s this twitter account of a japanese local hero mascot named dentman who went viral recently due to this tweet

but yeah he saw the tweet. and his response went viral as well (which is how i found his account)

and he just has like. hourly posts reminding you to brush your teeth

oh and his rival? his name is mr. mutans. whenever dentman posts he makes a post of his own, ofc

but THAT’S NOT ALL. literally while making this post i found a THIRD ACCOUNT that’s all about taking your meds

safe to say i’m losing my mind

anyway the point of all this was that people are ALREADY beginning to draw them ship art 😭

and the reactions are everything

I CANT ADD ANY MORE IMAGES BUT TRUST ME THIS IS SO FUNNY

toxic one-sided dentman yaoi wasn’t on my 2024 bingo card but it DEFINITELY IS NOW!

Chiron and Mr D: now that you've trained at camp for one (1) week it's time for you to embark on a quest to retrieve Zeus' lightning bolt and stop all out war from breaking out amongst the Gods.

Percy: are you aware that i am twelve years old

Chiron and Mr D: this is your dad's will

Percy: is he aware that i am twelve years old
