screenshot from history section of wikipedia page β€œThrow Shade” (which in itself is amazing):

The term can be found in Jane Austen's novel Mansfield Park (1814). Young Edmund Bertram is displeased with a dinner guest's disparagement of the uncle who took her in: "With such warm feelings and lively spirits it must be difficult to do justice to her affection for Mrs. Crawford, without throwing a shade on the Admiral."

I looked up who originated the term β€œthrowing shade”, assuming it was like, rupaul, but

if you did remap every time, I wonder what the distribution of possible galaxies is, and how often it converges to similar ones!

what browsers are people using these days?

I’ve been using arc on macOS and chrome on iOS, but I hate the new account switching thing in chrome. would be nice to unify across desktop & mobile.
