ovine grace @drjacobram.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Granted I have no connections to the Basque nation beyond acquaintances and no real knowledge of its history but basically it's massively important to me that they should be independent. Get on it 030

ovine grace @drjacobram.bsky.social · 26/08/2026By and large I like Wikipedia but sometimes I'll read a 15-line epic snarky clapback from an editor and I'll think they would die instantly in the live-fire environment of any other online community 040

ovine grace @drjacobram.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Does English have an equivalent to the French meuf, i.e., a synonym for "woman" that's slangy/informal but not insulting or a diminutive? "Gal" is too folksy/regional, "broad" is obviously dated, etc. 230
