As someone who did both French Canadian French and French French for most of elementary up to grade nine miette is not mighty, might, met, meet, or mitee.
It is meyet.
learning that apparently several hundred people have been pronouncing 'miette' as 'mighty' has actively worsened my day

why is it when you're in elementary/junior high you get to make mothers/fathers day cards in class and cut paper lanterns of red construction paper and oogle at a classmates giant menorah that's twice as big as them but then when you reach highschool if you have to take days off for things like Ramadan or Shabbat the board of education shows up to beat your head in with a blackboard.
What's up with that.

During (Concert) band camp my routine for three days straight was Irish Breakfast in the morning, Cinnamon rooibos for first break, Peppermint for lunch, this weird mango infusion thing second break, Cinnamon rooibos again when we were doing teambuilding things, earl grey for dinner, and then the weird mango infusion thing again during evening free time.
We ran out of both tea and coffee concerningly fast halfway through the second day, and also had to enact a ban on taking drinks to your seat during full ensemble and sectionals

“Wait until you get a real job”
You would be surprised to learn that some kids work 40 hours a week, sometimes without pay, while also balancing schoolwork on top of that and having to maintain a good social life over the weekends while also being expected to maintain straight 90s in class and do 2 hours of schoolwork every day afterschool
adults are always talking about how “kids will do anything to get out of school” and okay, first of all that’s not true, but I think we really need to ask why that idea holds so much sway.
children’s brains are hard-wired to take in new information and acquire new skills. consider, for a moment, just how thoroughly our society had to fuck up the concept of education for it to be a normal thing to assume kids are universally desperate to avoid learning.

"If being gay isn't a trend then where are all the older gay people?" Idk, maybe if we looked at history properly we'd see that most of them died to AIDS
oh wait that's exactly what happened

“Omg everyone is so rude yadayada”
No, you just forget that you live on a globe with seven continents and a million other people
Natalie Portman being confused by the fact that you have to say “hi” to someone before starting a conversation in France got me like ?????

I’m not entirely sure where I ended up. I appear to be in a part of town that I had never set foot in, which is rare enough in itself.
His name was Walker, a colleague of mine. The more I ponder on the writing, the more it does makes sense. He was, if I am correct, Greek. I do not recall his handwriting being quite so horrible, however. Very peculiar. His visit was so far back that even flipping the pages of my book for several hours have yielded no results. I seem to remember he was quite an uncouth and rude man- yet he had an excellent hand in treating the ill. A pity his hearing was never up to the same caliber.

As a regular ao3 user, I cannot even begin to explain how tagging for clout/views makes me want to strangle people who do this and throw them in a burning cesspool
