    Since I'm a hyper intelligent Force with auto didactical skills and love to work on the bleeding edge of micro and nano technology, I burn my time on subjects most mortals have never seen or heard of.

    Additionally, many so-called nerds are described as being shy, quirky, pedantic, and unattractive.[4]

  9. Who'd have thought it? A person can be a #MedicalEditor for more than 30 years & still come across a #science #word she'd never encountered! Here's a screenshot from Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary defining the word "lawn" (a #noun) as something other than a grass-covered area: "a relatively even layer of bacteria covering the surface of a culture medium." Who needs stimulants when #learning is its own high? #AmEditing

  11. @notjustbikes @me

    I dunno...

    The person who asked on the podcast is way more reasonable than the person (@kapsar) who assumed bad faith from the get go without putting even in the slightest effort to investigate.

    Even if I still don't get the point of #hashtagging #every #noun in a #toot.

  13. @panamared27401. Haha! And can we please agree that "woke" is a #verb (I woke up and wanted #coffee immediately), and not an #adjective and most certainly not a #noun, as #DeSantis is now insisting on. And once we've agreed to that, can we then agree that in its current usage #woke is a #synonym for #antifascist?

  14. @TomWellborn. Nice. Can we also please agree that "woke" is a #verb (I woke up and wanted #coffee immediately), and not an #adjective and most certainly not a #noun, as #DeSantis is now insisting on. And once we've agreed to that, can we then agree that in its current usage #woke is a #synonym for #antifascist? @atrupar, @jayrosen_nyu

  16. @The_Whore_of_Blahbylon. May I offer another suggestion? Let's agree that "woke" is a #verb (I woke up and wanted #coffee immediately), and not an #adjective and most certainly not a #noun, as #DeSantis is now insisting on. And once we've agreed to that, can we then agree that in its current usage #woke is a #synonym for #antifascist? @atrupar, @jayrosen_nyu

  20. @atrupar. Desperately trying to make #Fetch, I mean #Woke, happen! And it's even morphed from an #adjective to a #noun.

  21. I just read Rijkhoff 2015 and 2007 in one sitting and had to check that this exact formulation is indeed used in both: "For example, to say that a #noun is a word that is inflected for number is quite irrelevant for the many languages across the globe in which number marking is absent" #linguistics
