@Firstaide [preface: I'm self-educated in psychology and don't actually know what I'm talking about]

it seems to me that each symptom can be just hanging around uniquely, and we only call it a specific thing if you've got enough commonalities.

it's not like a virus, where we can say "this is the virus, and it has these symptoms", it's much more complex...

one of the things I'm doing with dapiica is messing with the boundaries of copulas.

For example, many sentences that require a copula in english (for example "I am interested in fish") instead use a verb in dapiica ( 'kaniputomano', lit. "I fish-interested")

and in other places, the copula is actually a circumclitic: 'ŋiidapiica dacaponoba' "dapiica is a language", with ŋii- and -oba being the copula

LB: as a linguist, I don't judge languages.

As a user of english, though, "to be" is really annoying

I had a shower, and I'm cooking a sandwich, and I'm feeling better!

@memnus@octodon.social unfortunately, no ::(

I wonder if steam will let me run half life and black mesa at the same time...

@Elizafox I used to use it, when I was in my "hmm, I think the soviet union was pretty good actually" phase, but I'm glad that I grew out of that
