my primary reason for using they/them pronouns explicitly is because richard stallman hates it

admittedly, this became my primary reason after finding out about the "pers" thing

@dysfun this bullshit pronoun stallman invented as an alternative to singular they/them

@ariadne the two types of pronouns:

• chosen bc you like being referred to by them
• chosen out of spite

@ariadne wait… Stallman dislikes they/them pronouns?

@hannah they’re supposed to be plural or something

@ariadne The promoter of GNU/Linux hates pronouns? That's ironic.

@chrisp well hates they/them specifically

@ariadne did not know this, do you remember where he said it per chance?
(if it'd take effort, don't bother btw)

@wyatt it is literally on his website
