@PhilosophyExp I'm a forgiving kind of person on the whole, but I don't think I will ever be reconciled to the missing S in "math".
@PaulaSKirby I know! But the S made it 141 characters, so it had to go! :)

@PhilosophyExp Oh Jeremy. I never had you down as an accommodationist.#disappointed -
@PaulaSKirby If I write a series of rage blogs about the unwanted S will that make up for it? ;) -
@PhilosophyExp Well, it would be a good start. :-) -
@PaulaSKirby Well, fuck that misogynistic, racist, ableist, neurotypical, cephalopodist, Islamophobic S to the ground, I say.#redemption -
@PhilosophyExp But I WANT the s! It's the absence of the s that I'm protesting against! It's the absence that is myogynitic and racit. -
@PaulaSKirby Oh yeah. I'm not really very bright, am I? :) -
@PhilosophyExp Oh I wouldn't say that. Besides, you like goats, and that makes up for a lot.
