I just, I comma splice so bad, no one can mistake it for AI, I just can’t help myself. I think my ADHD, or something, leads to it, and other grammar issues that I’ve just never shaken.
I’ve come to the conclusion that speech to text has played a significant role in the disappearance of commas. When things are written via speech to text, it almost never had any commas unless they say “comma”, and almost no one ever does. From there, I guess people just get used to not seeing commas, and even when they’re typing, commas don’t cross their mind.
It’s a pretty big pet peeve of mine, and I find it super frustrating to text with people who frequently used speech to text.

Well for what it’s worth…super ADHD here and I absolutely do this too.
But what the fuck? Aren’t we supposed to use them as we would use pauses in speech? Did somebody teach me wrong or am I hallucinating that memory.

I mean, that’s totally valid, for most of us, anyway
It’s alright, Mr. Walken. We don’t think any less of you for it.
Mr Walken, boldly going where, no man, has gone before.
