You don’t feel like bringing a massively distracting schtick to a political post detracts from your point? Trump is openly rætfuçking the election, lóók at mï!
What fucking point? The whole personality is engagement farming. The title is “hey tankies, look at me”, the text is “everyone, I’m special”, it’s like the relaunch of the PenguiN OF d00m holds spork !!1
You get away from reddit, and they just remake it from first principles, I swear.
Why write “the” as “ð” instead of “ðe”?
A desire to be arbitrarily special
Maybe they pronounce it “ðə”, and they’re implying the schwa by default
Kinda, but also it’s a shorthand borrowed from similar spelling reforms, namely Shavian.
Borrowed from oðer writing reforms in which ð equivalent letter is also shorthanded for “the”
I have a whole load of ðem, but stick to just using ð and þ because ð prescriptivists would never shut up if I brought out ð whole bag of fun.

Descriptivists would also point out you’re trying to singlehandedly do a thing to an entire language, and would you fucking stop please.
I’m not trying to do a þing to an entire language, I’m doing a þing because I like doing it
And no.
You being a pissant about it only makes me want to do it more!
Always the sign of a reasonable opinion.
No, sorry, the other thing - trolling. Always a sign of trolling. Or possibly a kneejerk oppositional disorder.
If all it takes to troll you is seeing a different letter, you deserve getting trolled.
Out here wið ðat Bill Maher “Get off my damn lawn!” energy.
‘Your precise argument against this makes me do it harder!’
Fuck off.
