I’ve never seen it/cannot vouch for it, but a tumblr mutual enjoys Tatort, a German-languagepolice procedural show 🤷‍♂️

Democrats fail on transgender rights messaging because, like you, they lack moral conviction to see it as more than a political battlefield.

It’s less the issue that there are *extremist* languagepolice or whatever, but more that ppl like you only care about how to win votes rather than save lives.

AI fun this week: I was invited to submit a keynote, but the AI rejected my idea because it contained non-inclusive language. Apparently, "Master's Thesis" is problematic because of the "Master" in it. Suggested alternatives were "Primary Thesis" and "Expert Thesis"

As someone who’s disabled, I’m blunt about it, b/c ppl talk about disability like it’s shameful. I think THAT is dehumanizing.

You want to use person-first language? Fine. I don’t. I AM AuDHD & disabled. It me. #languagepolice #autism #disability

Things that make me laugh or grit my teeth: the movie where the lead says she's a paleontologist when she is really an archeologist. Then she pronounces Gaelic "Gallic." And I lose interest.

#ElonMusk = #LanguagePolice. We need to make #FreeSpeech our rallying cry! Americans understand the first amendment and when they hear #CancelCulture, they need to think #DOGE. Republicans have used these terms to gain power and destroy free speech. We need to take these terms back.
