Philosophy grad school dropout. Busines school sellout. Texas code monkey. Okay family man. Sub-par Catholic. You're gonna hate the way I tweet—I guarantee it.
@FreddyLA7 Not many decades ago, there were even still a fair number of people speaking German regularly in some. Fredericksburg, Texas is one such place, but it has been dying out there, sadly. Texas Germans spoke an interesting amalgam of archaic German peppered with English loan words.
@FreddyLA7 There are many small towns around the USA founded mostly by Germans or German-speaking immigrants (the latter include my ancestors from 19th-century Alsace-Lorriane).
@COGs_Anemyre@nimbytwink@depression2019 Ah, but you conveniently dodged their point that "the Vatican literally has time machines" hidden away. Hah—checkmate, altar boy! Either Pope Leo must reveal the existence of the Chronovisor, or people like the ones in this video will expose it by force.

@timothynash@Leishac@FormerlyCBM Because it's not a generation in the genealogical sense, but rather in a sociological sense. Former is entirely defined by parent-child distinction within a family, whereas latter is abitrarily set to specific years designated by demographers. The cut-off year is what it is. 🤷♂️
