    But the person the object belongs to is generally gendered. ‘His’ is a possessive pronoun in this instance

          Yeah it’s kind of nonsense that we spend most of every municipal budget on such shitty tools.

          Also, gentle corrections to non-native speakers are cool; i always appreciate them in languages I’m tryinh to pick up; i expect that will continue even when im to the point you’re at where you only fuck up on the occasional weird rule or idiom.
