@brassmerino wait what?
@lizardsquid When I made my account just now, the interface was in Chinese. I had to download a handwriting keyboard on my phone to translate & figure out which line was email and which was password.
Heads-up: the Google handwriting keyboard moves much faster than I'm used to writing Chinese characters.
@brassmerino that's weird!
@lizardsquid Indeed. Sometimes I see Chinese or Japanese when other instances log me out, but this is the first one where I actually had to change the default language.
@lizardsquid It's been three and a half years since I last had to read Chinese. Just now I could feel my eyes crossing as I searched for characters I recognized. Or maybe that's just how bright the purples are.
@brassmerino that sounds exciting!

@lizardsquid So it goes. I could probably still have a spoken conversation in Mandarin. But I hate reading it because the writing system is BS. (That's what I did my capstone on for the Chinese major--why China should switch to a phonetic writing system, and why they're not going to.)
