Retelling stories is such an ancient tradition we literally can trace certain myþs genealogically þrough ð millennia.

Cloud being sad in an Action RPG format ðis time isn't some deep revelation of ð deaþ of creativity because capitalism exists.

And I hate capitalism and what it does to artistic expression!

Do you plan to do all digraphs, or just th?

Will you split out the different vowel phonemes to their IPA?

I'm just intrigued by the thought process behind your choice of typed characters.

Ya, like wtf? I got what they were saying based on context clues, but I swear I've been seeing more and more profiles that are trying to do a "thing."

Like this person with the typed characters, I've seen another user in comment threads who posts in the third person and refers to themselves as their fursona (scale-sona?), and of course the trolls.

I guess I just don't get it.
