@olives That backfired greatly. Also to do such a huge change with a few percent difference is stupid.
@hvangalen Hangt er vanaf.. als je airco hebt is het niet zo erg.
@knuppelbeer
Klinkt geweldig voor een groot stofzuigerbedrijf... 🤔
@linjaaho Good luck and have fun!
@braindouche Heh, good luck. 😁
@auldlangsin I remember a buddy of mine babysitting a hamster for a few days because its owner was on holiday.
We built a whole house for it out of lego.
Stupid animal didn't appreciate it and did a prison break. ;)
@sergeant Gecondoleerd (even goed Nederlands van gemaakt..).
@sergeant That's why I sometimes lose track of my phone, lol.
@freemo
*Boosted a relevant post* :D Been a year ago, it was getting time to bring it to attention again!
@olives Yup.
It's stupid.
@sergeant That's why it's so important to make a habit out of putting things in fixed spots. :D
Never lost my keys anymore. My phone rarely. And my glasses I always wear!

Apparently using *they* as a singular pronoun (to use instead of *he* and *she*) is hardly a new phenomenon. It dates back to 1375 in written records!
In fact, singular *you* is much more recent! Dating back to the 17th century! 😂
Oh, this quote's fun, and it shows that our gender-related issues has been going on for centuries:
> In 1794, a contributor to the New Bedford Medley mansplains to three women that the singular they they used in an earlier essay in the newspaper was grammatically incorrect and does no ‘honor to themselves, or the female sex in general.’ To which they honourably reply that they used singular they on purpose because ‘we wished to conceal the gender,’ and they challenge their critic to invent a new pronoun if their politically-charged use of singular they upsets him so much.

I'd say it's probably safe to use *they* in general. I do use singular *they* regularly and it's the least fuss imo.
@freemo Mm, 3:2:3 and 2:2:4 seems to be easier on the eyes.
@johnabs Whelp, English, uhhh... lessee..
This is just before the fall:

@LouisIngenthron I'm not comparing. It's just stupid.
@whateveryouart Anyone you like the posts of. My following list is also grown organically. You could also check out the FF hashtag if there's anyone to your fancy.
