This is an evergreen tweet, but there's more to it than meets the eye. Follow along as I do half-assed Internet searches to explore its history. Along the way we'll meet a celebrity con artist, a union-busting trade organization, & 19th Century Inception! https://t.co/7zVr5sKjJD

Um, hey @britishmuseum, it's come to my attention that your exhibit "China's hidden century" uses my translations of Qiu Jin's poetry, but you never contacted me for permission. Please note this is a copyright infringement! How are you going to fix this?? #NameTheTranslator

Hot Take from a quantitative sociolinguist who systematically compares spoken & written language: If you aren't documenting your data, you're bad at your job, ethically sketchy, your model is crap from the start & shouldn't be used for any reason. I will not be taking questions.

Allow me to introduce you to the most ridiculous yet amazing thing you will see this week.

I wonder which people we're discussing here. 🤔

[Clint Ryan @ClintERyan]

@valerievaldes ACHILLES: Uh, I've got to go. It's a matter of house security. *bolts for a secret exit*

MEG: Achilles, huh?

HYPNOS: Even Master Hades laughed.

HADES: Leave me out of this, you little slacker.

THAN: It was "bofa maenads."

MEG: I should have known when he said Achilles.

[Clint Ryan @ClintERyan]

@valerievaldes MEG: I still don't get it. There are obviously three of us, not two. Alecto still counts.

HYPNOS: That's the joke! I guess? Dusa tried to explain it.

DUSA: Look at all the dust on the ceiling! *flies into the rafters*

MEG: Two furies?

HYPNOS: I heard it from Achilles.

@valerievaldes @IntenselyEric Are you reading my nonsense to him? No wonder he needs tips from Hypnos.

Masks work against not only COVID-19 but also the flu, RSV, and other respiratory viruses. We should still be using them https://t.co/epGAE3aIYI

I just don’t see people explain what exactly is going to bring on societal downfall enough to lead to their imagined revolution. How many Black, Indigenous, brown, and immigrant people, how many queer people, do we have to sacrifice so we can lose a civil war?
