It’d be nice if a similar but global body gate-kept the drift in English. The current system where high-school cliques decides what’s Fetch and Mirriam-Webster’s monkeys just write it all down with no cohesion is not a basis for progress.

Also language people: ‘literally’ now also means its exact opposite because Ashley said so.

It’s OK if it’s just a general frustration, I’m only curious.
