Every once in a while I sometimes think about remaking the English writing system, as is normal I’m sure😅, and I wonder what would be the most useful revision of punctuation or phonetic.

    We kinda “do” this with “scare quotes.”

      yeah but “lots” of “people” don’t understand how any of those conventions work. “Some of them have no fuckign idea” what to put the quotes around, and others are trying to communicate some"thing" altogether stranger with their ‘choices’.

      I’m a big fan of a sarcasm font, hell make it reverse italic, I could get down for that.
