"IRREGARDLESS" HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1795. ITS INCLUSION IN THE DICTIONARY IS NOT A SIGN OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FALLING TO PIECES, OR PROOF OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FAILING, NOR IS IT THE WORK OF CURSED MILLENNIALS. IT JUST MEANS A LOT OF PEOPLE USE IT TO MEAN "REGARDLESS."

#Eurovision2023 Well, whether you're happy that Sweden won, or annoyed that Finland didn't, at least Israel only got as high as third.

Loreen managed Euphoria 2: My Greatest Hit, The Same But Different which is a hard line to walk, giving people something new but also the old thing they loved, without being decried as derivative. She has an amazing voice and incredible stage presence. Well done.

It’s amusing to me when my Eurovision timeline of passionate feelings is interrupted by Americans merely going about their day.

Look, I'm not saying the similarities between the lead singer of Voyager and Jermaine Clement in What We Do In The Shadows is proof that the band is made up of vampires, but, Australia wasn't allowed to enter #EUROVISION until it was invited...

if you develop bad eyesight, we give you corrective lenses and that's *incredibly* common, so I don't know what the drama is over giving people adhd meds if they clearly need it, imagine saying "well 70% of people need vision correction so its not real" absolute clownery

GIVE THE PERSON WHO SIGNED “CHA CHA CHA” A RAISE #Eurovision

Do people really, honestly think we're unaware? For a while, when people told me I was fat, I would look shocked and ask when that happened. They almost always replied that I shouldn't be rude. If they were giving me new information, how was I being rude?

Excellent piece, as always, from Debbie Cameron. A very good example of how corpus data can offer hard evidence that both confirms & extends our understanding of how language is used – in this case in the troubling nature of reporting of rape and sexual assault.

LOOK WHAT I FOUND THIS IS AMAZING I NEED A FULL VERSION

Okay, but she says Storm Babet and we all hear Storm Bawbag again, right? Just me?
