  • “Euphoria” has been popping up on my news feeds more frequently in the past decade or so. First jokingly, like the /r/atheism post that got a lot of mockery, “in this moment I am euphoric…” But now in a more traditional sense of the word in articles like this. It’s interesting because I’d always associated it with intoxication, like it is a private experiential state that an individual has entered, so it had a slight negative connotation but obviously there are these positive situations for using the word too.

    A linguistics student should write a dissertation on semantic shifts for words online (I’m sure this has already been done by someone).









  • I’m giving lainchan a shot to feed my imageboard obsession and I’ve been pleasantly surprised. The average post is of a higher quality and the mods seem more active. At the same time there are still like memes and greentext culture.

    Might look into sushichan too…

    Only issue is having to use KurobaEx instead of (Blue) Clover which is a bit clunkier but otherwise I think I can satisfy my shitposting needs.
