Are you tired of only having one set of anxiety? Need more to stress over?

Works well with the black and white/color scheme too!

Also why the gently caress does everyone translate it as maths? Is that actually a thing anyone who speaks English says?

Canada, too. Don't think I've ever heard anyone call it "Maths" here.

Don't doodle on it!


“Maths” is weird to me because I don’t think of mathematics as a plural. Is calculus a mathematic? Is gravity a physic?

I always thought that was a weird way to say something is done by literally three other countries. Sometimes four, but usually they just forget Canada exists and mostly speaks American English.

Canadian English is fuckin' weird; we use American grammar*, but British spellings. I think we lean toward British pronunciations, as well, but that might vary a bit more? Not sure.

* though some people use the oxford comma; it is objectively better, after all :colbert:

Do you take a maths class? Do maths? Is it singular and plural?

I know the answer to all this is colloquialism is dumb but I am legit curious, and with how frequently I see it in translation does that mean most translation teams are non-NA/non-native speakers?

E: I'm American and use the Oxford ok :colbert:

Basically everywhere an american would use 'math', you would add the s. Maths homework, 'they did the maths', etc.

It looks like なけ (Nake)? Which I'm not sure it means anything (though it probably does because despite speaking Japanese for 15 years, I often miss a ton of wordplay and puns).

Yes, in the span of less than 3 weeks, I went from Visha (from Tanya the Evil), to an ok Mio, to Touhou x Hidamari Sketch, to an AWESOME Mio, to lesbian mikos. Such is the will of the Sun Mother's goony sons. :shrug:

congratulations on making a smily that faces the wrong way, I guess

(but thanks for [e: working on] buying it, it's a good face)

edit: it's not too late? go to the smily index and consider the ratio of left-facing to right-facing faces. from there, the next step should be clear
