I vote we all tweet about media we’ve really enjoyed this year. Books? Movies? Tv shows? Articles you’ve read? Youtube sketches? What comforted or even uplifted? Not just new stuff, anything.

@wodieskodie Hopefully they come to see you as the source of mozzarella and not the obstacle between them and mozzarella

Anyway, this happened over the weekend. They like mozzarella and hate me, but we're working on that. 😍

Okay, but she says Storm Babet and we all hear Storm Bawbag again, right? Just me?

So much yikes.

I mean, for some of them, it’s a feature, not a bug, but what happens when you suddenly -can- see it only now it’s the entire shawl, not just a few hours of knitting?

The number of people knitting the original clue 1 of the west knits mkal because “they don’t see it” is staggering.

@vimtoffline He’s come a long way from cos-playing as a nazi. And I mean that sincerely, he really seems to have grown up and become a decent human being.

@kariebookish Zombie Facts. They've been proven false and yet they still get up and run the world faster than the truth can get it's boots on (to mix metaphors)

LOOK WHAT I FOUND THIS IS AMAZING I NEED A FULL VERSION

Excellent piece, as always, from @wordspinster. A very good example of how corpus data can offer hard evidence that both confirms & extends our understanding of how language is used – in this case in the troubling nature of reporting of rape and sexual assault.

Do people really, honestly think we're unaware? For a while, when people told me I was fat, I would look shocked and ask when that happened. They almost always replied that I shouldn't be rude. If they were giving me new information, how was I being rude?

GIVE THE PERSON WHO SIGNED “CHA CHA CHA” A RAISE #Eurovision

@kariebookish Tell me she’s not Canadian without telling me yada yada

if you develop bad eyesight, we give you corrective lenses and that's *incredibly* common, so I don't know what the drama is over giving people adhd meds if they clearly need it, imagine saying "well 70% of people need vision correction so its not real" absolute clownery

"IRREGARDLESS" HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1795. ITS INCLUSION IN THE DICTIONARY IS NOT A SIGN OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FALLING TO PIECES, OR PROOF OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FAILING, NOR IS IT THE WORK OF CURSED MILLENNIALS. IT JUST MEANS A LOT OF PEOPLE USE IT TO MEAN "REGARDLESS."

@mrjkk17 Reminds me of this youtu.be/uxC1fPE1QEE

@KennyIBoyle @charliejane Nationalism is very different depending if you represent the dominant power in a country and you’re trying to keep other people out or if you’re a minority power trying to be fully included. Using the same term for both is the problem.
