Disorganized antifa wine mom

I argue semantics, professionally.

I also swear a lot.

She/her default but they/them is cool.

Copying over my #introduction post:

I've proud to have been part of the fediverse since before we had a cool word for it.
Ever evolving tag cloud because I keep being reminded of interests:

I like that spellcheck now doesn't give a flying rats ass through a doughnut about whether a word is in the dictionary or not. It is just a possible combination of letters for an English word (side note: it is a word in Tagalog!).

I moved away from computation linguistics in the mid 90s because I didn't like how hard it leaned into statistical analysis vs semantic and I am still / more mad now. Furious as a colorless green idea.
