AITA for correcting my girlfriend's family every time they mispronounce my turtle's name?
I have a turtle named Geoff. Yes I know Geoff is normally pronounced Jeff. His isnt. My girlfriend's family knows this and still calls him Jeff basically every time his name comes up.
His name starts with /dz/ instead of the normal American English J sound /d3/. So regular Geoff/Jeff is roughly /dzef/ and his is /dzef/. They are similar but they are NOT the same consonant. /d3/ is a voiced postalveolar affricate and /dz/ is a voiced retroflex affricate. Basically you make the beginning of "Jeff" with the tongue farther back/retracted, which gives it a harder, deeper "dzh" sound.
I'm really into etymology and historical linguistics so the spelling was intentional too. Geoff is already a weird spelling from a modern English perspective because gives you basically no reason to predict /dzef/ unless you already know the name. Obviously I am NOT claiming medieval Geoffrey was pronounced / dzef/. I

somebody posted a shitty Charlie Kirk memorial post on a work Slack channel that goes to 14,000+ people. And it's hilarious: three white/kind of yellow-skinned prayer emojis, and then dozens of thumbs down with every emoji skin color on the rainbow. We live in a society.

You’ve gotta use AI because it’s the future. But also it’ll take your job. But also it’ll create a paradise on earth and solve most of our problems. But also it’ll end humanity soon. But also you’ll get left behind if you don’t use it right now.

last week I got into a Lyft and at the same millisecond that I shut my door, the opening notes of 'American Idiot' began to play, like the driver had queued it up for me. I wasn't sure how offended I should have been, or what exact commentary this man was making.

my band put out an album in May 2020, and in support of it we were supposed to play 2 different shows at my favorite venue in SF, the Great American Music Hall—one supporting Bad Religion, another supporting Propagandhi. Then COVID destroyed all my dreams and I'm still not over it.

very cool that looking at any website on your phone these days is a mix of Whack-A-Mole, links moving right before you can click them to make room for more ads, and just generalized mental torture.
