Thank you so much for the St. Joan of Arc symbol on AACIL. I'm so happy I can replace have a better symbol for her on my AAC!
Do you think you or someone else could do symbols for St Teresa of Avila and St Therese of Lisieux?

St Teresa of Ávila (on Christianity page)
Image 1: St Teresa of Ávila, based on Peter Paul Rubens painting of her, but with a golden halo and a golden lance striking her heart as she describes in one of her visions. She is a pale-skinned woman writing in a book with a quill, wearing a historical carmelite habit.

Hope these work for her! Not able to symbol Thérèse of Lisieux right now, hope will eventually. Glad Joan symbol work for you!

Can we start referring to our names as our 'preferred nouns' or just our 'proper nouns'
just to really get under conservatives' skin
Can you imagine saying "Hi my proper noun is Lou and my pronouns are they/them."
It would drive them fucking nuts

There was this one time in a test/quiz, I wrote in “Chris Dunne is actually dyslexic, in case you didn’t know.” (It was for a proper noun sentence example.)

Why does Marx's Das Kapital deceive people? (Rewrite Essay)
Tumblr media
Marx
I have written before that the problem with the Bible is the overuse of people's proper nouns (Hagar and Ishmael/The Bible and proper nouns) because the writing attitude of naming only one person and his proper noun as a representative of a certain ethnic group promotes discrimination against that entire ethnic group. In this regard, I gave the counterexample of Lao Tzu, writing that Lao Tzu, who hardly uses proper nouns, does not create the problems that the Bible does.
There is a Western literature in which people's proper nouns are hardly used. It is Das Kapital. In this respect, it is the same as Lao Tzu. Still, instead of creating misunderstandings due to the overuse of proper nouns, literature creates a different major misunderstanding.
Das Kapital is a "meaningless string of characters." Its logic is crazily flawed, but more specifically, it is a "string of characters full of malice." Marx was an antisocial ideologist who wrote Das Kapital intending to overthrow society. Japanese former soldier and writer Hisashi Oide declared, "Marx is a rebel philosophy." It is a dangerous book. Lao Tzu writes with gentleness as the main focus. Even without proper nouns, they are so different.

なぜマルクスの「資本論」は人を騙すか?(リライト・エッセイ)
マルクス
聖書の問題点は、人の固有名詞の乱用にあると以前書いたが(ハガルとイシュマエル/聖書と固有名詞)、それは一つの民族の代表としてたった一人の人物と、その固有名詞を挙げるという文章態度によって、その民族全体への差別を助長するからである。この際、私は「老子」という反例を挙げ、固有名詞をほとんど使用しない老子は、聖書のような問題を生まないと書いた。
さて、人の固有名詞がほとんどでてこない文献が西洋にもある。「資本論」である。その点は老子と同じだが固有名詞乱用による誤解は産まない代わりに、別の大きな誤解を生む文献なのである。
それは、「資本論」が「無意味な文字列である��ということである。論理が狂人的に破綻しているのだが、もっと言うなら「悪意に満ちた文字列」である。マルクスは、反社会的な思想の持主だった。社会を転覆すること���目的に「資本論」を書いたのだ。日本の元軍人の作家:生出寿は「マルクスは、叛逆哲学だ」と喝破した。危険な書なのである。老子は、優しさを主眼に、書を描いている。固有名詞がなくても、こんなに違う。

A Questionable Guide to to the English Language, Part 2
A noun is a word (other than a pronoun) that identifies a person, place, thing, or idea. A noun (or a noun phrase) is always the subject of the sentence, which is attached to the sentence’s predicate.
A common noun is a noun that identifies a class or type of person, place, thing, or idea, such as firefighter, house, car, or freedom. Often, it refers to the thing in general rather than one in particular. An exception to this is when the noun is preceded by a definite determiner, such as the, this, that, or those; in this case, which one the noun refers to is dependent on context.
A proper noun is a noun that identifies an individual person, place, or organization, such as Mary, London, or Nintendo. Unlike common nouns, proper nouns cannot take definite determiners. In English, proper nouns are written with the first letter capitalized.
A pronoun is a noun with a positive charge. As mentioned earlier, it is does not identify a person, place, or thing, as a result of its charge. Compare with neunoun, which has no charge, and elecnoun, which has a negative charge.

You know that moment Daryan's like, "I never liked you. Both of you." In my head I saw Klavier talking to Daryan backstage like, "Yes, there's a new greenhorn attorney! He name is Apollo Justice, but I call him Herr Forehead. He's just so passionate and his hair is quite nice..."
Meanwhile Daryan is listening and already forming opinions out of jealousy.
Basically just Klavier talking up Apollo and Daryan being a grump in the corner.
Tumblr media
I think you’re right on this one. Maybe Daryan and Ema should hang out, ultimate haters UNITE!
