It seems unlikely that you think that internet slang is commonly found in conventional books of the past “few thousand years” or even that you think that there simply must be a recent book using this specific feature of internet slang - suggesting that you have some ulterior motive in asking the question. But okay: Do you think that internet slang is commonly found in conventional books of the past “few thousand years” or that there simply must be a recent book using this specific feature of internet slang?

You realise that “/s” is barely old enough to drink in some US states, yeah? How about you just say what you’re trying to say instead of asking cryptic questions?

Unrelated to the topic: news media used to get someone to translate their shit for them so there wouldn’t be ambiguity about what the source says. I fucking hate that it’s now okay to rely on machine translation and hope for the best. I will not credit them here for noticing that something wasn’t entirely clear in their translation, that’s the bare minimum.

Alright, have a nice day.

It is becoming difficult to keep assuming you’re not being intentionally obtuse.

Imagine a big burly person with a big beard who is read by most people as “man” entering a bathroom labelled “women” - because that’s the “relevant” one for their genitals. Do you really think there wouldn’t be SOME sort of reaction?

You probably mean well but you absolutely cannot tell me you never ever use pronouns. Language doesn’t work like that.

And we haven’t even started talking about the Bathroom Issue.

The fact that you’re not aware how frequently gendered language is used may not be your fault but it is a result of your privilege.

Girl, I don’t know what to tell you here.

Bad idea. I really wouldn’t mess with Princess Luna (the original), she’ll invade your dreams.

Congratulations on your privilege.

My fellow Spirk shippers have so many alleged (and usually unsourced) quotes by Gene about how he definitely was at least okay with the concept, if not actively worked it in, I wonder if he ever spoke about anything else at all.

You know how people often assume someone is trolling, simply because their account is new?

Another reason would be to not have a billion dead accounts on servers.

When I first considered signing up (I think it was on Mastodon), I was told how very easy it would be to move from one instance to another so it wouldn’t matter where I sign up - so I chose the first server that caught my eye. It was also implied that I’d need exactly one login for the entire Fediverse.

In hindsight, I’m okay with this not being true but it was a disappointment. At least moving servers (while taking your history with you) should be a lot easier if we’re trying to avoid big instances becoming bigger.

If fucking only. The amount of stuff that really was only two clicks away twenty, ten, even five years ago and is just gone now is staggering. Backup your shit.

Also why we endlessly do the hip wiggle to avoid going to the loo until it hurts.

“Just do [X]” does not compute, whether X is “yoga”, “sports”, “[specific diet]”, “the laundry”, or simply “it”. It is never simply “just”. The inability to “just” start doing a thing (especially without any immediate reward) is one of the central symptoms of ADHD and if you say “just do [X]”, you’re essentially saying “just don’t have ADHD”.

ADHD also doesn’t mean you are/were bad in school. Not by a long shot.

Oh I see, hah. It did sound like you were simply misremembering and it’s been quite a while since I saw the movie so that went right over my head.

Was that Ozzy? Whoever it was, it was a request for a bowl of only brown M&Ms backstage and their reasoning was that, if that request wasn’t fulfilled, whoever was responsible didn’t do their job and they’d assume that other, necessary stuff also wasn’t done properly. Kind of a canary, in a way.
