The Zohran "aunt" thing is the funniest hatchetjob of all time. There was a prominent person in my childhood named Uncle Bonehead who was just a friend of my uncle. To this day I have no idea what his actual name was. This nomenclature is not unusual in my culture (recovered alcoholic Masshole).

I see some secondary data analysis, categorizing nomenclature.

These people would have a fucking heart attack if they tried to comprehend Vietnamese family naming system nomenclature.

Le monsieur qui dit des bêtises à propos de la nomenclature du divin mets (pour amuser la galerie et se faire remarquer, à n’en pas douter) a par contre parfaitement raison au sujet de la date, j’en ai peur.

"The Long '16" was first coined as a highway nomenclature in the fictional video FALLOUT NEW VEGAS, but is perhaps better deployed referring to the breaking of the Veil, the Gentleman's Agreements that once powered Congress prior to the rise of the Tea Party, the groypers festering everywhere...

I definitely do not think a haunted house narrative has to have actual ghosts. The living can haunt something. Or maybe the nomenclature needs to be adjusted to be a little more broad at its axiomatic base?

Microdosing is not the correct nomenclature here. Microdosing implies a very small, subtherapeutic dose of a psychedelic. You are taking a reduced dose, but by definition from what you are saying it remains clinically effective

I have fixed the stupid nomenclature whereby your parent's cousin is supposedly also a "cousin" rather an aunt or uncle, and even your grandparent's cousin is supposedly also a "cousin" ffs rather than a grand-uncle or grand-aunt.

Indeed. In fact, @billhayden65.bsky.social, it most likely derives it local legislative nomenclature from the river that passes through it.

yes precisely, these guys always try to lawyer themselves out of this situation, when honestly the nomenclature is secondary. the signified matters more than the signifier, the map is not the territory, this is not a pipe, etc etc etc—it matters what you fucking do more than what you say (about it)
Ok, fine, it's not colonialism or apartheid, it's a totally different system by which the State of Israel indefinitely and explicitly denies 33% of its population self-government or self-determination based on their ethnicity. Why is that supposed to be better?
You can’t „colonize“ the country you are native to.
Jews have at least three thousand years of permanent presence in Israel.
The name „Jew“ stems from Judea.
And the Jews aren’t white enough for Hitler. None of them were.

Planetary nomenclature raises additional questions about the setting's history — most cultural evidence suggests divergence could not have been later than the late Western Roman Empire, but all the major planets and several others have their names from OTL, the latest from 2006

There was no GR.IV, as far as I can see
If those were lend lease aircraft, then, for legal reasons, they retained the A30 nomenclature

Of course most exciting for me: cytoarchitectonic proof that the VIM exists (and is not a subunit of VL as implied by the Jones nomenclature).

No rules exist for vernacular names, especially in English with no national language authority.
International nomenclature rules exist for scientific names in a number of scientific fields including a number of codes in biology.

UCLA astronomer Jean-Luc Margot told the Atlantic that the International Astronomical Union has been in charge of planetary nomenclature for more than 100 years, but “surprisingly, they have not defined what a moon is." 🧪
No One Actually Knows What a Moon Is
The universe has quasi-moons, mini-moons, and moonlets, but no official definition of what counts as a moon.

This Spanish language radio program on a Spanish network is apparently staffed by people who aren't familiar with Latino (or American, Black, Asian) family nomenclature but I guess discovering live on air that you call your dad's cousin your aunt if she's a generation older is...learning out loud
In a bit of a tense moment, one of the La Mega co-hosts presses Mamdani on why he "lied" about his "aunt" having been scared to ride the subway after 9/11 while wearing a hijab.
Mamdani says it was "not a lie" because he refers to his father's cousin as his "aunt."

One aspect of knowing way too much about the technical aspects of the T is that I have my own nomenclature and list of preferred train doors for most of my frequently used stops on the red line, and a fair number for orange and blue.

This definitely wouldn't cause peace BUT the allusion to the Plato quote is pretty based and since he was actually weirdly ok with women being in charge of stuff ("Philosopher *Kings*" is a genuinely misleading bit of nomenclature subsequent tradition took up for his position!) I like it.
Im pretty sure that the world will know peace only when women are elected as heads for each and every government.

Nah. It's the Kent State Diaper Girl.
I mean, it's the same person, but Kent State Diaper Girl is the preferred nomenclature.

I always thought the naming got screwed up by the Caesars, who added July (Julius) and August (Augustus) without regard to the nomenclature.
