This was an absolute delight to read. It added questions to my already present contemplation of the personal lexicon during times of internal chaos and upheaval—the importance of identifying the specific words that are ours, and not the world's, and how misidentifying either one as the other can cause all sorts of problems (particularly in contexts such as those you explore here).

I'm so grateful I stumbled across your little treasure trove of a Substack, and I look forward to reading more! x
