And I think we see this a lot when we're talking about things like generational trauma, when we're talking about things like race relations, and you see people saying, well, you know, but I'm being the adult here and I'm being the rational person in the room. voice-verified

It's like, or maybe you just have the privilege for this to not induce any sort of triggered trauma or feelings. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

to me. voice-verified

Like, I don't even know how many actual languages there are. voice-verified

2,000 sounds crazy high, you guys. voice-verified
