Homographs are just cruel. As a native english speaker, it's like... bullying for someone trying to learn the language. Read vs. Read - evil.

Sounds like someones overdue for a re-watch of Alone in the Wilderness. Lol.

I could listen to Dick Proenneke's matter-of-fact narration for hours.

Don't get me wrong, I love honeybush but the honeybush that I've had has always been a very light flavour compared to rooibos. Like, with rooibos I feel like I'm having tea as opposed to honeybush essenced hot water

Beautifully said! I was going to say something along the lines of science is the belief/ trust in man, while religion is the belief/ trust in a deity but I believe this is better.

Depending on what you're looking for "girly" could fit.

Ex. If a macho man is a "manly man" (which I don't think is entirely accurate because I think the concept of machismo is much more complex than that), then a "girly girl" would kind of be the equivalent?

Alternately, "femme" can be used to mean kind of the same thing but more respectfully since "girly" has a rather childish connotation. "Ultra femme" or "High femme" can be used to describe someone that strives for or is the peak of feminity but then... defining what that means is a whole other thing that's probably just as complex as defining Macho/ Machismo.

Not sure if this helps but I wish you luck in your search for the word.

I HATE Lost Boy by Ruth G.

I don't know if I fully understand why but I'm pretty sure it's a lyrical issue. Like something about the rhyme scheme or flow of lines just gives me really intense "I'm in 4th grade and writing my first poem ever" vibes.

The music itself probably also bothers me but I don't know music theory well enough to pinpoint why. Musically does it also sound like someones very first attempt at song writing? Or does it sound better than that which then makes the terrible lyrics really stand out?

Yeah, within the next two weeks for sure. Lolol

Payroll admin so... if you hadn't specified that's it was just within my industry I think the whole world would come to a standstill by Friday. Lol.
