@er1n I remember hearing that the reason it's called the ampersand is because of reciting the alphabet in schools

it used to be part of the alphabet as just "and" and it was at the end of the alphabet

as "x, y, z, and and" sounds weird they decided to go for "x, y, z, and by itself and"

'course because schools they did it in latin so "x, y, z, and per se and"

ended up getting corrupted into ampersand

@stolas@elekk.xyz I was disappointed that "skeleton meta" wasn't about the upcoming skeleton war

@cypnk @cathal@octodon.social looking at "preppers" is a really interesting insight about what right-wing philosophy really boils down to

you've got them going "hide from other people, fight the other people, they want your stuff, hoard all the stuff, gotta have all the stuff and protect against people who want stuff"

and here on the left we're all "oh, people? nice! maybe we can help each other out and share interesting stuff and information!"
