Im super glad it works for you, same with a self-directed name :)
No need for sorrow, I think I'm just too old to see myself the way I’d have liked several decades back :)
Either way, I hope you have a wonderful night friend! I hope to run into you again :)
I literally took Latin in college for the sole reason that Latin is used in super stupid ways, and my science communication degree would be worth less without that knowledge. Because Latin-base is fully half of the science terms you need to know.
And my college was super on board with my reasoning. Wish I’d also had the mental capacity for ancient Greek, because that’s literally the other half of naming schemes.
Ridiculous.
I’m super into modern scientists giving shit pop culture names. Because holy shit is it ever more memorable than some random Latin/greek bullshit.
Thanks for posting that! I have no idea how to do that :)
Yeaaah.. no mistaking that for anything else.
Fwiw, I did not find that myself, but I do think it’s important to pass on. We all need to know what’s being glossed over here.
No signs, you hear it. It’s audible.

This video, start it at 1:16:00. It happens around 1:16:25, right about when he says “tremendous”, but the context is fun.
If you watch through the debate, you can -hear- him shit himself when Biden’s mic is muted, and like..
Look, I’m not going to body shame, and old people deal with problems of that nature sometimes. That’s cool. It happens.
But like.. given the options, I’d rather have a president who is -usually- together and with it.. than someone so accustomed to shitting themselves they can do so mid-sentence, televised, and think nothing of it. That is not a good look internationally. Literally all the other shit he spews aside.
I low-key hope Agnes doesn’t come back.. that’s my middle name.. can’t stand it. I know it was my great grandmothers name, but I never met the woman.. and it just feels.. harsh. (Probs because I only heard it when I was in trouble, or when people were making fun of me)
Plus side, my mom got talked out of naming me “Elsbeth”, which is a very very defunct precursor to Elizabeth (which she didn’t like)... Since frozen with Elsa, that probably would have been ok, but it didn’t come out until I was in my checks release very late 20s, by which point the damage would have been done.
But hey I can’t complain too much on the naming lottery.. my sister has a fully 100% boys name. Her middle name is a French version of Patrick.
You can make or buy something like this if you can’t do clips.
