    If you think that kintsugijin is hard to say, try saying atatatkunakatta = P (literally, "it was not warm")

    It's actually "it was not warm" but I messed up typing =.= Languages are fun! I try to avoid saying that at all possible times

    A kintsugi swarm is a really pretty mental image.

    ...my brain has no idea how to translate "seeblings". Small seebses? Seebs' minions? People from the planet Seebs? Pormanteau of seebs and siblings? I spent all day thinking about this and am no less confused than when I started.

    #not literally all day #but a very substantial chunk of it #i have a very boring job okay #i get really excited when i have new things to think about

    I felt like it was like siblings, but seeblings. Like we all unofficially got adopted or something.

    I'm imagining that too, and it's just such a gorgeous mental image, I love it!

    Seeblings is cute too.

    I've been mentally calling us "kints".
    It turns out "Kint" is, among other things, a debugging tool for PHP.

    I liked seeblings because it looked like seedlings and I was picturing this forum as a garden or something.

    While I am in favour of both seeblings and the kintsugi swarm, I am now imagining the planet Seebs...

    Alas, when I hear kints I think someone typo'd a certain misogynistic slur. Yes, despite two letters being different. I don't even know.

    I like seeblings myself.
