how important is your language to you? not just, but your vocabulary? do you feel like you use your language well (not in some sense of honouring it, per se, but to express yourself)?

It's quite important to me. It's a reflection of myself in a way, my habits, what I think about in day to day life. Sometimes I type or talk stupid, meme everything I say, or I get very wordy and lengthy like this right now. I like to think this duality in my speech represents me as a person too. I've been told I'm quite funny but at the same time I'm quite intelligent (I am not glazing myself, I keep getting told this throughout my life), and I think my speech also expresses how those two connect, or maybe I'm just connecting nonexistent dots. Either way, I like the way that I speak, even if it turns to nonsense to me sometimes.
