Does anyone ever pay attention to common words/phrases that are "secretly" horrifying? (lemmygrad.ml)
 

Maybe it's because I'm obsessive about words and enjoy overthinking things, but I do this a lot with common words and phrases that we use. The one that horrified me today was the phrase "cost of living". It's right in front of our faces that it literally costs money to remain alive. Did we know this already? Of course! But the fact that it's so deeply woven into every aspect of our lives and people don't even pay attention to what's coming out of their mouths is wild to me. Wild, and wildly upsetting.

I hope this wasn't a weird post or a post that doesn't belong! I will delete or accept a removal of the post if it doesn't fit. Thanks for reading all of this.

Hi! I'm Jakob, and I'm a trans guy living in a very very red (not the good kind) state with my wife. We are both basically MLs (though I need to read more theory :c ). I sneeze when I'm full, I love cats but my wife is allergic so we don't have any, I listen to a lot of music so I would love to talk about that sometime, and I constantly think about social justice. Every billionaire is bad. Also, you can't kill me in a way that matters :)
