I am too well versed in science fiction to agree to a brain implant.

"Queen" by itself refers to either women or gay men. It is not gender neutral. "Drama queen" is applied to all genders, but, again, this example is pejorative toward women. Do you have any examples of women-centric language that can refer to all genders, but that is not negative toward women?

Can you really say "1984" with confidence either way given Big Brother?

I would not have guessed that meaning of "of." I think we should stick to "til" or "past" for clarity.

I wish our numeric system was base 12 instead of base 10!

100% yes! I have pretty intense time blindness due to ADHD. The visual representation of time in analog clocks helps me.

Your examples of female-based neutral words are pejorative. Do you have examples not rooted in misogyny?

Thank you! This was driving me crazy as well!

The Magnus Archives. This is a 200-episode paranormal horror podcast. Each episode is based around a statement from someone who witnessed or experienced something paranormal. Episodes increasingly delve into the lives of the people who archive these statements. The character development is fantastic. Only a single curse word is uttered in one of the final episodes.

Thank you so much! That fixed my issue! I was signed into the same profile on both, but my language was previously set to only "undetermined." I did not realize it was a multiselect field until I read your comment. Now I have it set to undetermined, English, and Spanish. I really appreciate you! Have an amazing life!

Do others encounter hidden comments in Jerboa? Many comments do not appear in the app. I can tell they are missing based on the comment count at the bottom of a post.

Sometimes, I can only read child comments. When this occurs, the following error message appears in place of the parent comment.

There is no record of this comment.

However, I can read those same comments in a web browser. Also, I can read replies to my post or comment in my inbox in Jerboa, but not on the community page in Jerboa.

Is this a known or new bug?
