I'm forcing myself to learn Russian. The alphabet feels like the uncanny valley in CGI. It's like it's visually close enough to english but there's enough differences that annoy my brain. I'm learning Russian to defeat that feeling to the ground. Though I like this part of the alphabet:

That letter's cool.

It's strange I can read Hiragana, Katagana, Hebrew, Korean, Greek, some Avestan, and a lot more fairly easily but for whatever reason my brain doesn't like the Russian alphabet. Well fuck that feeling I'm going to know how to read Russian easily soon by just putting in the effort. I do not like this uncanny valley feeling and I want to be rid of it.
