    "Oh no, a bad word!

    Better cross it out so no-one thinks I’m using bad words.

    But not all the way, so everyone still knows what the bad word is but also recognises my attempt to save them from seeing a bad word!

    I’m such a good person (but also cool 😎)!"

      Learn algospeek is humans already getting twisted by pretzels.

      That said we should have a better way to deal with racial slurs than ostracization.

      Because I might have never died before but I used to be a kid and we loved all the no no words. That means probably todays kids are hyperaware of them and I can’t think of a better way to perpetuate racist thoughts than to teach their words to all the kids via reverse psychology.

      Guess what I’m saying is that I rather the kids learn slurs in a safe space than behind the neighbour’s shed and come back preganement with brain racism !

    I know someone who died twice. Well, I used to know them, the second time was lethal. First time they managed to survive though, with the help of a hospital full of doctors

        Three men walk into a bar on a Tuesday at 1pm. A Welshman, an American, and a Japanese man. They all had severe alchoholism, and would lead very depressing lives with their failing livers over their 40s.
