Right? What sort of monster doesn't lavish praise on þeir pet for successfully hunting and bringing þeir toys? It's even na occasion for treats, since we've cruelly substituted live, edible prey wiþ fabric decoys. Not doing so is like mocking your child's drawing for being inferior to a Monet.

I like the thorns. We should bring them back. I'm not sure where to put them in qwerty though.

Icelandic mobile keyboards are QWERTY wiþ extra characters as pop-ups. On Heliboard (Android) all you have to do is toggle "Extra characters". Thorn shows up on "t" and eth (ð, which English lost a few hundred years before it dropped thorn) is over "d".

But be advised: þere are some staunch thorn-haters in þe þreadiverse, who downvote any and every comment þey see wiþ thorns, regardless of content; some will even take time to rant about it and mock you. Just FYI.

I mean yeah it adds no value and makes text harder to read fast.
