Pour les français c’est juste recommandé de se laver les mains, mais pour les sales anglophones c’est obligé :p

People who write “setup” as a verb, do you also say stuff like “I setupped it”? #pedant

Selon USPS, mon coli a quitté PARIS et il est maintenant à FRANCE 🤔

Now she’s asking me if “yourselves” is a real word and I have no idea 😫

I just tried to mansplain the meaning of “condone” to my non-native English speaking partner and it turns out I was wrong and I have been misunderstanding it all my life 😬 I feel like she has defeated me and I will have to give her my British nationality like on the Holoship in Red Dwarf or something

I did a mock Cambridge English listening comprehension exam with my partner who is practicing to take the exam for real. It’s really hard! I got several answers wrong despite being a native speaker 😬

Big advert to encourage tourists to go Geocaching. I guess it’s not a secret geek hobby anymore.

Filming the kernel boot messages with my phone camera because it scrolls too fast and I don’t what I’m doing.

What a sad headline. Why does it have to be a race? Can’t they work together?

It’s interesting how people tend to talk about the current situation with euphemisms like “everything that’s going on at the moment”. If we ever get back to normal, I wonder if people will look back at old media and be confused about what we were referring to. Or maybe we’ll never get back to normal and people watching old videos will think it’s quaint that we used to think it was just a “situation”.
