Heh. Reflexively tried to page right on a manga on my phone, and the comic book app was like "wrong way, asshole". (but politely)

When I was a teenager I rolled my eyes hard at messages that love and friendship are crucial, irreplaceable things.

But y'know what, it's so fucking true. I don't know of anything more important.

Today's term of the day: hapax legomenon!

A hapax legomenon is a term that appears exactly once in a given corpus.

Frex, in all the Latin text from classical Rome that's survived to the modern day, the verb "circummingere" appears once, in the form "circumminxit", in Petronius's "Satyricon". "circummingere" means "to urinate around", and is used in the description of a magic spell a werewolf uses to turn his clothes to stone (by pissing in a circle around them) before he goes off to maraud.

I love Cyrillic's multiocular O: ꙮ

Aside from its memetic mutation it's used in exactly one phrase and nothing else: "серафими многоꙮчитїи", "many-eyed seraphim".

Wired: games where you're impressed by how huggable the characters are.

I still haven't gotten over how *fun* Pyre is. The core gameplay doesn't have a ton of moving parts but it's just so damn good.

@emanate @indi @starkatt Actually I'm just screaming THATS US at the computer while hopping around excitedly

today's Gender of the Day is: that crackling rumble sound made by very large rockets during liftoff.

(this is one of my more frequent genders)

Okay, I know I mentioned the goodness of "comrades" the other day, but in most cases my favorite gender-neutral plural noun is "cuties".
