Guys we gotta up our game the Georgians said fuck more than us

Having looked through historic googlebooks many a time and been frustrated by how difficult it is to search in this time period, this chart is most certainly due to the algorithm not properly picking up the “Long S” which was an f-like character used in place of an s especially in 17th and 18th century printing.

The rules of when the short and long s’s are used are somewhat complicated to modern people, but they are almost always at the beginning of words, never at the end, and if there is a double s sometimes they are combined and sometimes not:

99% of the time the word actually being used is “suck” or “sucking.” It actually shows up a lot as a word used to describe babies who were still nursing. In texts from this period the word “suck” will almost always read as “fuck.” This makes some of these auto-transcriptions absolutely brilliant in hindsight:

If you search for the word “fuck” in googlebooks within this time frame, you get hundreds of pages of entries like this. For example, this Shakespeare anthology:

This is not to say that people in the 18th century didn’t find this hilarious, I’m sure they did, but f-bombs were not being dropped in classic literature at the time. If they do show up, like in this 1785 slang dictionary: it is almost always bleeped out:

The other 1% of the fucks in 18th century books are, of course, not bleeped out because they are in Ye Olde Porn, of which there is a surprising amount on googlebooks.

#labor solidarity with the duck fucker

I should also note if it wasn’t clear that the immense dropoff just after 1800 is when the long s stopped being used in print, and the reemergence was in the mid-late 20th century when people DID start dropping f-bombs in literature

Reblog and put in the tags how often you “clean” your tumblr account, deleting old posts.

Tumblr actually has an auto clean function! Where the search function immediately forgets tags and posts making them un-findable

Sorry I’m late, I got added to the Wild Hunt last night and ran and reveled with them for what felt like 100 years plus a day until I landed the killing blow on a stag with bronze antlers then suddenly woke in my bed, willow leaves in my hair, a nameless song echoing in my ears, and my hands still bloody, so yeah, totally missed my alarm and stuff.

In Japan, radiation creates monsters (Godzilla) and in America radiation creates superheroes

Shockingly, it’s almost like Japan and America have very different narratives surrounding nuclear fallout. Now, if we all think very very hard, maybe someone could think of why this might be.

If anyone wants to know where the UK is currently at, disability campaigners have lost a battle over making it a legal requirement for high-rise flats to have an evacuation plan for disabled residents.
