kolmaskommentoija notes strawberry_enjoyer42 can just use strawberry_enjoyer42’s name or some different noun descriptor as a replacement, so no pronouns needed
Also, perhaps ironically, because Latin is an agglutinative language, the original “cogito, ergo sum” does not have pronouns either. The -o ending in cogit-o, tells it is “I” who thinks, and “sum” tells it is “I” who is (“being” being completely irregular verb). So it is “(I) think, so (I) am”.
It’s so neat :3 It’s survived into modern Latin languages, like Italian and Spanish. It kinda exists in English, since you can frequently drop some pronouns, but the person-perspective (there’s gotta be a proper word for that) not encoded in the other words.
For example, one might shorten “I love you” to simply “love you”, or in questions, such as “are you enjoying your food?” being shortened to “enjoying your food?”

true. strawberry thinks, therefore strawberry is.
