Fun story from my mom just now.

She lives alone with her dog Ash. And as one does when just living with a pet, she has a lot of made-up nonsense she just says to him, including a lot of made-up vaguely German sounding words.

And the German isn't completely random. Some of it is hold-over actual German from when she (temporarily) lived in Switzerland 32 years ago.

She told me, "Most days I'll say to Ash, 'Was ist heute? (What is today?) Heute ist (Today is)'" followed by the day of the week. She also said she was having the damnedest time remembering the German word for 'Thursday.'

Like she could get through "Heute ist Sonntag," "Heute ist Montag," "Heute ist Dienstag"... and blank out at Thursday. Until finally she decided, screw it, googling it! (Thursday is Donnerstag, btw.)

"Except," she told me, "I googled it, and it went Sonntag, Montag, Dienstag, Mittwoch, and I went 'Mittwoch? What the hell is Mittwoch?'"

Mittwoch is in fact Wednesday. But that's not the day of the week my mom was tripping on. She knew (thought she knew) Wednesday. So my mom was left going "Okay then what the hell have I been saying?" and she said, "Chrissy I've been saying Sonntag, Montag, Dienstag, Geburtstag. I've been saying Heute ist Geburstag to Ash every Wednesday."

Geburtstag is in fact the German word for Birthday.

Anyway happy every single Wednesday is my mom's birthday Wednesday.

not only is the evil alter trope stupid and bad but it also just doesn't come close to capturing the true horrific realities of being a system, such as one of your headmates being a swiftie
