@actuallyautistic As an #Autistic person who reflexively thinks literally, I don't think I'll ever stop being upset that the meaning of "literally" has been modified, but there's no alternative word to express the concept.
Multiple times daily, understanding people's meaning now has additional cognitive difficulty.
That's because, every single time, I will take the word "literally" literally and spend energy interpreting the literal meaning only to find it was not, in fact, literal at all.
