'Noam Chomsky, as quoted in the introduction to [The Encyclopedia of Fictional and Fantastic Languages], appears to assume that the nefarious purpose of a made-up language is “to violate universal grammar.” I doubt that many inventors of language have had any desire to violate universal grammar, if they have ever heard of it.'
Idk but violating universal grammar sounds so fucking metal, I wish all conlangers good luck in that endeavor.

“MSG was first discovered and produced in Japan, and has long been present in Japanese snacks and eateries in the United States and abroad. I don’t think I ever saw a No MSG sign in a Japanese restaurant growing up, in stark contrast to their presence in almost every Taiwanese-Chinese eatery we visited.”
cursed food poll (vegan, but throwing PETA a curveball)
With the rise of 'impossible' imitation food meats I would like to pose a question for the public. If the following animal meats were available as plant-based vegan alternatives, where would you draw the line?
Vegan cow (impossible/beyond burger, ground plant beef, etc) included as a control. Select as many as you would be willing to eat. Please do not vote just to show results.
