Philosopher of Language and Literature

He/Him

Bot account posting selections from Grose’s “Dictionary Of The Vulgar Tongue”

CW: 18th-century levels of racism, homophobia, sexism, slut-shaming and negative attitudes to sex workers.

But on the other hand, someone non-judgmentally recorded the speech and codes of people on the outside of polite society, people in the demi-monde and otherwise forgotten by history.

Let me know of any problems.

Content warning for possible nudity. Some historical images may depict POC or people with disabilities in ways we find inappropriate today. Let me know and I'll fix ASAP.

Mainly news, constructive politics and food. Maybe some pop culture.

Current CW practice to hashtag political posts liberally so that they're easy to filter, but to only CW them if something in the text of the post would require a CW in any context.

I only boost images that include alt text. #nobot

Warning: I DO share political thoughts as if they are part of ordinary conversation rather than things to hide from view. I’m a US citizen and a former UK resident, and I follow US and UK current events as well as try to keep up with events of global significance.

Movie posters from the golden age of Film Noir: lots of bright colours, particularly orange for some reason; exclamation marks; diagonals; wild fonts.

Hello! I am Sylvia, and I'm a poet, fantasy writer,, artist (also digital), diarist and artjournal keeper.

I also love to craft, mostly knitting and crochet

I've lost my creative spark in recent years, and now I'm fighting my way back, one word, one doodle, one knitted row at a time.

Hashtags used: #poetry #writing #fantasy #artjournal #doodles #creativity #simplicity #fedi22 #knitting #crochet #quotes #stoicism

You can follow my micro blog here: @Sylvia

Aspiring dark historical romance author, amateur historian and blogger of the history of women who lived along the medieval Silk Road. I live between a state of يا رح امك and 什么鬼.

A lifelong learner, reader, and writer. My focus in this space is to explore and share my writing and ideas. Posts <> endorsements, simply areas of curiosity and interest.

Professional teller of tales

I write the books I want to read but can't find.

I will, on occasion, post the picture of a park, usually taken in the morning on the day of the post. I use the tag #tommw for Talking On My Morning Walk, my somewhat daily podcast.

I never post the link. The picture is the "first word" of the podcast and tells my listeners that the new episode is coming. They know how to find it.
