How do you pronounce “with something”?
Hi everyone, I'm having a hard time pronouncing "with something" without pausing between them for like 1s. If I force myself to say them faster, I either end up pronouncing "something" as "thomething", or "with" as "wiss". E.g.: "be snowed under with something" “with something like that“

well, let me explain first before you think i’m too dumb: i know it’s obvious that forehead is on the head and foreskin is down there, but both have a head and a lot of times i say foreskin meaning forehead. the same happens with cheeks and buttcheeks. obviously buttcheeks are not on the face, but i still manage to say it super often and it’s just so embarrassing. it happens with ankle, uncle and knuckle too. sometimes i say “uncle” when i mean ankle or knuckle, or ankle when i mean knuckle, and vice versa. i’m 28 already, i should have learnt it by now

What does "used to ain't the same as ought to" mean?
Hello everyone. I'm having trouble understanding what the sentence "used to ain't the same as ought to" means. I understand that "used to" is referring to Viv being used to sleeping without a bed, but I don't understand what the rest of the sentence means. What does Cal mean here?
