“I‘ve just watched a degenerate crap called Titanic! As a scientist I can tell you why the ship really sank. It definitely sank because of fornication. So obvious”
ps: he is not a scientist, just a goofy account but it’s hilarious

When you, as the head of state, stop laying claim to the territory of a neighboring country, it suddenly turns out that you have nothing to fear anymore, even the frightening "Bayraktars" and "MAM-L" are no longer scary to you. And you can safely use public transport, going to your residence of the Prime Minister 
Live without fear!
Live without fear!

Also our language has taken care of personal pronouns long time ago. It is totally gender neutral for millennia now! The only third person pronoun we got is “O”.
Woke conscious individuals, wink wink

Again you are just like Tamil in that regard. We don't have a "the" (definite article), its basically absorbed into agglutination/context.
Agglutination is so stronk
Chinese (other extreme with zero agglutination) also does not have definite articles....its all done by context entirely in grammar.
But even in "sweetspot middle" that is Indo-European.....in germanic family, there is agglutination that English diverted from (largely due to precursor Saxon/"plattdeutsch" and then ironically Norman/French influence....Old Norse through Viking input was not sufficient to change Old English grammar).
There is no such thing as "the boat" in scandinavian languages for example. It's all suffixed to "baten" etc. So basically "the" doesn't exist separately in nordic languages....due to old Norse staying closer to Indo-European norm/convention (if you look at Latin and proto-germanic etc).
English is closer to das boot of German....and de boot in Dutch....and the equivalents in Romance languages (that diverted from Latin on this matter).
But there is HEAVY old norse influence in vocab in English in comparison....and lot of other parts of grammar that did get influenced by Viking invasions and then the "Danelaw" era.
Das boot.... now that reminded me of the movie..... "its a long long way to tipperary but my hearts right there!"
