You can report stuff in Apple Maps for having the wrong name. Stuff like the names of international waters.

I recently saw someone discussing shifts and trends in fan fiction and claim that the move towards 3rd person is a sign of “maturity.” I’d love to see them say that to Mary Shelley, the inventor of science fiction.

I just saw someone on 🧵 say Les Mis has been running on Broadway for almost 40 years. I can’t decide what bothers me more. That they’re right that the show is 40 or that they’re wrong, the show is 10. Like. Time moves and that bothers me. But Les Mis is on its 3rd revival!

It’s been playing uninterrupted in London for 40 years. If they’d just said the west end I could’ve just lamented that 20 years ago I was 13 in London seeing signs for the anniversary performance and how was that 20 years ago!

@ people complaining about 30 year olds playing college first years in Wicked. It’s in Oz. Maybe Ozians are like hobbits and become adults after 30.

This is unrelated from my upcoming Hobbiton majority and in fact inspired by the fact that people are constantly missing that Oz is a different world with different standards. In Wicked the book Fiyero is blue. Jonathan Bailey being 36 isn’t the most different thing.

I just got blocked by someone who wanted to condescendingly explain to me how there are multiple genders and therefore bisexuality and pansexuality are not functionally equivalent. Fucker had a terf queen reference for a name.

*taps mic* legal constitutional nepotism is not as bad as treason or sexual assault

Are we ready to admit that the gop isn’t “the law and order party” now?

I am an English MA student. I have presented at two conferences, one undergrad and one grad. Today I had an abstract accepted to NeMLA 2025 . If any academics wanna give me advice on "conferences for grown ups," I'm all ears!

Are the only differences just this is gonna be a lot longer and the conference rooms are in a hotel instead of a college campus? I've heard rumors that conference question askers can be quite aggressive and are trying to catch you out. Is that true?

Me: I’m in a wildly demoralizing PhD info session @erica_peaslee: so a PhD info session?

This is an excellent tweet: Netanyahu wants Trump. If you are a single issue voter and your issue is Palestine, you should vote for Harris.

Also loving how much power he thinks VPs have. Like it’s more than it used to be but. It’s not the biggest job on earth

Hey @wbznewsradio the name you were looking for was “Judy Garland”

I appreciate the correction that Babs wasn’t the original but seriously. It’s not like the early ones were nobodies!

I’ve decided that, in academic articles, I will not be reading parentheses. If they wanted me to read it they shoulda used an em dash.

If you haven’t read Metaphors before, read it and solve the riddle before reading this thread
Metaphors -Sylvia Plath I’m a riddle in nine syllables, An elephant, a ponderous house, A melon strolling on two tendrils. O red fruit, ivory, fine timbers! This loaf’s big with its yeasty rising. Money’s new-minted in this fat purse. I’m a means, a stage, a cow in calf. I’ve eaten a bag of green apples, Boarded the train there’s no getting off.

Ok seriously am I the only one who sees it as entirely about “ugh I’m a damn whale and I’m exhausted and ready to be done” and not about hating motherhood? Like take your knowledge of Plath out of the conversation for a minute and show me where this makes you think that

People who do stuff on phones etc with the sound on in public are my least favorite people

Hey terfs, it’s 10 minutes to curtain at a Broadway show and someone in the restroom asked if anyone had a tampon. So yes. It does happen. Water For Elephants, if that’s important.

Does anyone know how to suggest flavors to @benandjerrys slash if that’s even possible? I have a great idea for @KamalaHQ ice cream….

Ok well the funniest piece of this is the bots claiming to be airline reps

Hey @Delta? Your bad rebooking system just cost you my trip and cost me $100 cause @JetBlue is more expensive. I get that everything is a mess, but you wouldn’t let me select a different new flight and didn’t give me amy options beyond canceling once you “confirmed” my rebooking

I’m not a huge traveler but I’m pretty loyal to @Delta. Do better.
