How delightful to see a surge in the popularity of Athena!
I'm sure that the top name for boys will occasion much bile from the usual suspects.
Didn't think Ivy smelled of anything particular. Certainly not something I'd expect anyone to pay for.
I guess they check it isn't poison Ivy - that would have unfortunate consequences if someone rubbed it over their body.
First article of a series on Epstein, with names, locations, organised crime, politicians, Mossad of course and more.
Whitney Webb is the researcher. She's awesome. She can dish it out like nobody else can. I have to say, this is the kind of stuff that infuriates me, but people need to know

#ISO just updated its "country codes" database to spell "The Bahamas" with a capital T. https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:code:3166:BS
The change comes at request of country's govt, made to #UnitedNations (UN) in April 2025: https://unterm.un.org/unterm2/en/view/eaa3fead-a98e-4eb4-ae3b-5d0c7e167784

the evolution of chinese names in singapore: https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/community/whats-in-a-name-local-author-traces-the-evolution-of-singaporean-chinese-names
unlike *most* of my millennial peers, i have my passport chinese name NOT in mandarin / pinyin but in my dialect (teochew / chiu chow) name. i used to be ashamed of this (this was perceived to be deeply backward, in a time of mandarin hegemony and death to other chinese languages), but now i am very proud of it.
Just found out there’s a film review site that’s got “Fernby” in its name.
First time I’ve seen “Fernby” outside of my name.
Ideal Name for Aquatic (think sharks, orcas, etc) Furs!
We know names like Jordan and Taylor have moved from the male column to the female. On an older scale, names like Leslie and Meredith did.
But is it possible for #names to move in the other direction? Because I just finished a 1931 novel in which the female lead was named Daryl.
That's not a Top 1000 name for either boys or girls, but I'd say it's much more common for boys, Daryl Hannah notwithstanding.
Agent: "So, what's your name?"
Client: "My name is Nancy."
A: "Are you sure of that?"
C: "Yes. I'm sure about my name."
A: "How about I refer to you as Julie? There's a nice name."
C: "No, I'm Nancy. That's the name my parents gave me."
A: "They did, didn't they? They had to pick Nancy, and not Julie. Those bastards!"
C: "I'd like to talk to your manager."
A: "Alright." [Picks up the phone and talks into it:] "Can you send the manager in, please? Yes. I have a difficult client."
Manager: [Enters the room] "What seems to be the problem?"
C: "Your agent, he keeps wanting to call me Julie, even if my name is actually Nancy."
M: [To the agent] "Is this true?"
A: "Yes, it is."
M: "Well, that won't do. That won't do at all."
C: [To the agent.] "See!"
M: "My colleague here made a terrible mistake. No, I see you more as an Annie. So, how about we call you Annie, instead."
C: "What?"
A: [To the manager.] "By god! You're right! She is an Annie!"
What are you devices (laptops, phones, servers, etc.) named after? My theme is greek mythology: gods, heros and monsters.
My PiHole is named after argus, the all-seeing giant. My laptop that I often took on journeys is named odysseus. The home server is named herakles, because of all the different tasks it fulfils.
I also heard of someone using place names of famous disasters like Chernobyl, Hindenburg or Deepeater Horizion.
What‘s your theme?
Boosts appreciated.
"What's your name?"
"N."
"Yes, but N. what?"
"N. Shittification."
"Oh, so you're the jackass that's been spreading through the internet!"
