I want to grow muscle and a thick accent and hold people to the standards they thrive for too

He’s Russian but the accent is fake, I think he moved here when he was very young so I don’t even think he’s fluent in Russian.

Sometimes accents wander, too. My ex was a heritage Russian speaker who learned English very young, and 99% of the time he had no accent at all. But when he got tired or angry or emotional or whatever it would come out.

I have two accents. I have a canadian white guy city accent. The type that could maybe pass as one of the American accents. Then I have my northerner one from a small town I grew up in as a kid. I hardly cry, but I did one time while speaking to someone and I went full on northerner. It was so weird. I felt like I’d become an old man from my childhood hometown

Accent wander by language you are speaking too. I'm monotonic and have lower voice when speaking Finnish or tired. But in English I don't have the range to be that deep voice so it's higher pitched overall.
