Where But Almost Feels Like It Lessens The Impact Of The First Half Of The Sentence - Blog Posts

6 months ago

Random thought I've been having since yesterday-- it's wild how much people say "but" when they really mean "and." Like, they know two things are not mutually exclusive, but they use "but" anyway. In a lot of cases I think both work and it's vibe based, so it's usually in emotionally charged or positive conversations that I really notice. "And" feels a lot more open and welcoming, but it still feels wrong even when neither phrase at all contradicts the other.
