Switched speech topic from "Why You Should Switch to Firefox" over to "Why You Should Learn Esperanto", because the former was giving me a headache to try and write. Esperanto speech is going much more smoothly! I still need to write the conclusion, but that's just one paragraph, and I've already got all of my sources listed and embedded as well.

...I should make an Esperanto Dreamsheep. And pick Esperanto back up in general. I remembered what I know better than I was expecting, but I really do want to know this language well.

Edit: Speech is (tentatively) complete! I just want to extract it from the template and give it a good look over for flow and so forth, and then it should be good to go. Thank goodness.

...🤦‍♀️ See, even that would've been better than what I was doing, which was literally writing sentences next to the "prompt" part. Makes it very easy to grade when I turn it in, I'm sure, but treating it as a post-writing checklist probably still would've been easier. If I'm not constrained to the order given by the template, I can do more interesting things!

Well, whatever, it's written now, I don't have to care beyond turning it in.

(😛 I thought the Sheep of Light was particularly appropriate for posts about being long-winded!)

Ah yes, I get where you're coming from (though writing it first would at least fix the "how to weld everything together" problem...). Oh well, you don't have to care any more!

Oh, it absolutely is! (And that had me wonder when you'd last used that icon as the main one for such a post; the last candidate I could find was this one back in 2021. That reminds me of myself, since I only use my icons for such purposes in comments, and almost never in posts; I use them for RP purposes in the other cases.)

Esperanto Dreamsheep is a go! I made a couple of other variations, before deciding I liked this one (the first) after all.

Yeah, it's been a while 😅 Incidentally, I've got sheep for all twelve aspects; they're available for use by anyone if you want to poke around on dreamsheep.

Ooh, I really like it, too! (And I see some other people with "Esperanto" interests, so I think it might find a broader public!) For myself... I haven't got too much space for icons, but now that I think about it, I might just grab a Dreamsheep for my default!
