Random Thoughts/Things?
I wasn’t really sure what to call this thread, but I’ve had this idea floating around in my head for awhile now. Basically, anyone can post anything here. Any random thought you have, any random thing that happens to you, any random question that pops into your mind. Have fun, and don’t be afraid to be random.

I'm reading the driving manual (my permit test is tomorrow, aahhh) and...why are legal documents still using "his or her"? It's so silly. Besides the obvious fact that it's exclusionary, it's just so clunky and unnecessary. There is one word you could use as a substitute! It would make everyone's lives easier!
(July 9, 2023 - 5:59 pm)
it's because if you use pronouns beside she/her or he/him then you can get away with crime /j
seriously though that is one of my biggest pet peeves. it's not so hard to use inclusive language, and it literally just makes everything easier, as you said.
(also good luck on your permit test!!)

Just had a random thought:
Every second, the past gets longer and the future gets shorter.
(July 9, 2023 - 7:48 pm)
Well, that is an intresting way of looking at things, depending on your defenition of the past. In a broad sense, the past and the future do not grow longer or shrink shorter because time flows on forever to infinity, and we know that no matter whether you add or subtract a real number(a second can be defined as a real number, right?) from infinity, you still get infinity, so, ah, um, yes.
Don't mind me, just throwing random thoughts around until this thread reaches 10000 comments :D
(July 10, 2023 - 8:26 am)
Yes, I agree. Time is infinite, like pi. (Not pie!) So the future does not grow longer or shr-oh wait it does, it just remains infinite.
Don't mind me, I'm the self-proclaimed resident infinity expert.

AURORA's music is so frogging pretty and strange. I want her to compose the soundtrack to my novel when I'm rich and famous and they're turning it into a movie.
(July 9, 2023 - 10:13 pm)
I know, I've never heard anyone who makes music quite like hers. She's one of my favorite artists.
I've watched a few movies with her music in it (Wolfwalker & Frozen II) but a whole movie with an AURORA soundtrack?? Ack yes please
