George Orwell, whom I’ve dragged forward in time with my arcane powers because I’m lonely and want someone to talk to: You have a telephone in your pocket? It listens to you all the time?
Me: Never mind about that, the point is, young people now mock each other by sending the wheelchair emoji - that’s a type of electronic heiroglyph - to suggest mental deficiency and shout SPESHUL!!!! while doing offensive imitations of disabled facial expressions and posture. So any attempt to lexographically make crimethink impossible is pretty much doomed because the meaning of words in everyday conversation can’t be controlled by a dictionary entry, no matter how many Ministry of Truth employees-

Oh no two seperate artist created two separate characters with different silloettes whatever has happened to the animation industry in 73 years??? The Horror!!!

I’m sorry I just can’t get over this seal I found on tiktok. Why does it look like that???
pretty sure that’s a baikal seal, they live exclusively in a single lake in siberia and have huge fucked up eyes because they usually use visual cues to hunt during the day rather than tactile cues
incidentally, here’s an image of two mandarins in a 1:1 replica baikal seal skull to show how big their eyeballs are
bruh you mean lake baikal as in the deepest most fucked up lake in the world
