Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I'd love to know what NASA has planned for it.

Stop trying to make thorn happen. Thorn isn't going to happen.

Aw leave them, it's a great little bit of fediverse culture.

The reactions make me think of this.l video essay on World of Warcraft.

C’mon, they ain’t hurtin’ n’body. A couple ‘a archaic characters that distinguish this user in their post is a call back to the Internet of old. Yer pappy’s internet. It’s nice to see in these days of, hell, “super intelligence” an’ bean memes. Let the [insert gender here] have a lil’ fun with language. Might even do ya some good to encounter them thorns from time to time. Yeah I reckon it’ll make ya read them posts with intention.

They inspired me to bring back æ. Like archæology. You can't even notice unless you squint

You totally can. But it's better than thorn by a lot

I've come around to this poster actually, next time people moan about them I'll start using the long s!

I think it's kinda cute, tbh. Too bad the comment itself an obnoxious bit of trolling.

[-] LostCarcosan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

Is that trolling? It must be going over my head because I thought that was a real question :(

[-] Wranglyph@piefed.world 2 points 22 hours ago

It's possible that I was overly quick to judge, but the comment seems to be gone now so I guess we'll never know. 🤷

For me the comment is still there, weird
