<egg|zzz|egg> ...
* egg|zzz|egg is confused by the word "private"
<egg|zzz|egg> the french translation uses "soldat" I think, which breaks the pun
<egg|zzz|egg> (unless this account is soldier I guess)
<UmbralRaptor> private as in the military rank. >_>
<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptor: yes, I get that
<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptor: but the french equivalent is just the french word for soldier

<kmath> <actuallyalice> When TERFs say TERF is a slur. https://t.co/PLxB2gxUaf
<UmbralRaptor> hrm
* UmbralRaptor is fairly certain that people were arguing about singular they in the early 1990s https://twitter.com/NoraReed/status/865012375820222464
<kmath> <NoraReed> people are like "those damn lazy millennials and their newfangled gender pronouns" as if they aren't throwing tantrums about learning 1 word
<UmbralRaptor> (via Ellied)
<Iskierka> try 1500 or earlier
<Iskierka> (well, not arguing. But everyone who argues against it HAS used singular they, because it's just correct english and always has been)
<kmath> <MicroSFF> At last, he found the old dragon's lair. "Who's there?" it roared. "A foe?" "No! I want to hear about your life." "Why?" "I'm a historian."
<egg|zzz|egg> UmbralRaptor: english is really nice for having the option of singular they though (in languages with grammatical gender, adding one isn't exactly an option)
<egg|zzz|egg> !wpn Iskierka
* Qboid gives Iskierka an acid
<egg|zzz|egg> !wpn UmbralRaptor
* Qboid gives UmbralRaptor a nutating completely harmless thyratron
* UmbralRaptor dies anyway.
<egg|zzz|egg> Iskierka: dragons \o/

<Iskierka> https://twitter.com/liamosaur/status/864713419458437121 this one is why contactless needs to be enabled with a PIN payment first
<kmath> <liamosaur> I was able to use a sealed envelope addressed to a coworker containing a credit card to buy myself a slurpee thanks to the wonders of NFC
<Iskierka> at least here

<Ellied> A vendor at whole foods offered me a beer sample
<Ellied> I accepted because why not. Maybe it's just this particular beer, but jesus fucking dick how do people drink this
<Ellied> it smells like pineapple juice but tastes like sodium hydroxide
* UmbralRaptor is vindicated!
