2018 is þe year of using þe þorn again instead of þe letters “T” and “H” in succession

gotta keep it smooþ

þank you

Who let Feanor have a tumblr??

Are you protesting þis?

Guys, guys, “ðis” and “smooð” shouldn’t have þ, ðey’re hard TH sounds. 

We should be bringing back eð as well.

Ðis is ðe year we start spelling þings ðe Anglo-Saxon way again, and we’re gonna do it right.

Both the letter eth (Ð,ð) and thorn (Þ,þ) were actually used interchangeably in Old English. Ðis is right and so is þis. Þey’re not interchangeable in oþer languages or for ðe IPA, but I þink ðat for English, þe crazier we get ðe more Beowulf would be proud of us.

am i having a stroke

Language is canceled

ACTUALLY, in Old English, þhe þorn is most commonly used at þe beginning or middle of a word, whereas þe ð is used at þe end.

So, in OE, it’s Draca eteð þu. (Þe dragon eats you.)

You guys, as a US labor historian, let me tell you: It is actually very significant that US union membership actually increased in 2017. Like it probably won’t get huge play on the major media outlets, but that is a big fucking deal. That hasn’t happened to any significant degree since the 1970s. Unions have pretty much only declined since 1976. But unions added over 200,000 members last year, most of whom were under 35. That is a massive deal. That is building people power. That is a huge reason to be optimistic.

Keep it going. Join a fucking union y’all. iww.org

“For six years, the only consistent thing about our national drug policy has been its inconsistency. Harsher penalties, urine testing, hysteria, budget cuts and the simplistic ‘Just Say No!’ campaign (the equivalent of telling manic depressives to ‘just cheer up’) have returned drug education and treatment to the Reefer Madness era.” — Abbie Hoffman, 1987
