I've always advocated for the creation of the Académie Anglaise. Hopefully Congress can charter an organization that should reach Anglosphere-wide.

Is it something like we can't, or are discouraged from using the word "problem" anymore, instead we MUST use the word "issue" lol, some nonsense like that? lol

My spell-checker wants to change the word prollly to probably.
It's been a thing since the 1940s apparently...
