Geez. Now I have to learn a whole new language?

Some dude lost an election because of charcuterie.

This thread is a hoot! And people no longer die. They become unalive.

That's just because some algorithms automatically censor kill/dead/die, according to what I read a couple of months ago.

Where Did Unalive Come From?​

Unalive emerged on TikTok around 2020-2021 as content moderation became increasingly aggressive. Creators making content about mental health, sharing personal experiences, or raising awareness found their videos removed or suppressed for using direct terminology.


Rather than stop talking about these important topics, creators adapted their language. "Unalive" let them discuss suicide prevention, share their stories, and create mental health content without triggering algorithmic suppression.

Unalive is just as bad as 'lost' and 'passed'.

These terms are widespread on social media and some people use them to fit in with their peers.

I thought that was a knife and fork, but that's cutlery.

The word ‘curated’ gets on my nerves. If you amass a bunch of junk and call it a curated collection you can usually charge a few more dollars for it.

I thought they only became unalive when they died by nefarious methods.

They pass. Nobody admits that people die. They pass.

I would really love to have my own bespoke shoemaker. To have every shoe fit my feet perfectly, and made of real leather, would be luxury beyond measure.

I too perceive within my persona, my trope, an incomprehensible tidal pull toward the circumjacent splendors of the noble cordwainer and his calfskins.

Pepper's definitely on the mend Doncha just hate when people lose elections due to charcuterie?

My son bought for me for Christmas last year a Mezzaluna Chopping Set. It turns out, a high-quality Acacia wood cutting
board with a stainless-steel double blade Mezzaluna knife, perfect for cutting herbs, garlic and vegetables. I was grateful but I
am so used to using the good old knife.

Seriously, I thought it started with those zombie movies and t.v. shows a few years ago.
