"I'm going to get some mixing done today"

> spends 4 hours trying to fix jitsi

@koreymoffett I believe there are ways to help educate people how to hate less and love more. Social and political systems have a large influence on individuals' behaviour, so if we can cultivate a better society then we will reduce the number of hateful people.

@koreymoffett They're on a decline but there's still a lot of work to do.

@Krypton @fatboy These examples only represent educated white people of a certain class. Additionaly, Mr. MacDonald is surely of Scottish hertiage and Bernard Shaw is Irish.

Language and accents are continually shifting in every language all over the world. This is natural and very hard to pin down to a single moment.

I'm no linguist, so I can't speak on a deeper level. I can highly recommend the podcast "Lexicon Valley" if you want some good content on linguistics--by actual professionals.

@koreymoffett I agree that people should not misuse words but it's also alarming how prominent racists, nazis, and fascists are in the world today.

@w96k I love your style!

@kylebronsdon @gabek Thinking about it more, I think I'm more naive to things that negatively affect others while having less of an affect on me.

Like how everything Gabe is describing hasn't been a problem for me--that doesn't make his problems invalid, it just means I'm not aware of them.

We should have a live chat about this some time. I think it's interesting and important, and I think highly of both of your opinions.

@gabek @kylebronsdon I definitely don't put that much effort into it haha. If anything, if someone wants me to buy their music on Bandcamp Friday then they better have released it plenty ahead of time, because I build up my wishlist ahead of time. This method of building up a wishlist in my own time, then making the purchases on Friday has been stress free for me.
