@tom their website doesn't seem to help much other than the keyword being "gossip" and hmm

@squirrel the video explanation is p. good!

@tom ahh. i'll watch it when i'm not at work i think

@squirrel @Tom *starts to give a definition and etymological history of the word "scuttlebutt"*

*sees this toot reply* .....oh

@InspectorCaracal @squirrel @tom oh have people been using scuttlebutt on socmed now? Haha it's weird seeing something that is predominantly a naval term used that way

@ratbaby @squirrel @Tom actually it seems as though there is a new social media service

or in other words, the scuttlebutt is that scuttlebutt is a new social media service

@InspectorCaracal @squirrel @tom fascinating!
