To balance out the 'delighted to announce's, I am displeased to discover that with less than a week to the deadline, I still don't know what to offer Corpus & Discourse 2026
So, this may be the first I miss (unless we count the Camerino one which we probably shouldn't)
Ideas on postcards welcome 🆘
Nov 11, 2025 09:23Semi-serious response: Looking at when and why the personal pronoun was dropped in social media posts. As in: "delighted to announce" rather than "I'm delighted to announce". I don't think it's just a character limit thing, think it's also about footing/distancing, but I'm not sure...
