Bot account posting selections from Grose’s “Dictionary Of The Vulgar Tongue”

CW: 18th-century levels of racism, homophobia, sexism, slut-shaming and negative attitudes to sex workers.

But on the other hand, someone non-judgmentally recorded the speech and codes of people on the outside of polite society, people in the demi-monde and otherwise forgotten by history.

Let me know of any problems.

Not a bot just a rather corpulent male approaching fifty years of age; a very very slow ignoramus who reads occasionally.

Toots are #humanities, #sciences, #nonfiction #books, #maps, #charts and #graphs related. Some toots containg #videos may also find their way into the timeline.

Toots or follows or boosts or mentions ≠ endorsements of any particular notion or notions.

Expect many typing errors and nonsensical commentary.
