Do you leave out words on purpose? It's one thing to misspell something but I just don't understand how you managed to just not write one word in both of your sentences.
And just for clarity, those words are "is" and "we".

Strangely I find myself doing this occasionally as well (although, not as bad). I sometimes wonder if it's cognitive damage from covid or perhaps the long term result of spell check / predictive word technologies. Either way it's somewhat concerning.

It's a fucking combination of pre text making changes and Lemmy removing words after I post. Not sure if its the app I use or Lemmy in general. I keep forgetting to recheck the text after I post.
