Oops, Coyote Blog's 10-year Anniversary Passed About a Month Ago
I guess as I have aged I don't tend to pay much attention to birthdays either, but as of last month this blog is ten years old. Hard to believe. Celebrating a decade of my inability to proof-read. Thanks for your patients.
PS- yes, I did that on purpose.
PPS - I actually do know the difference between its and it's, for example, but I just don't always execute carefully. However, I use "them" and "they" and "their" intentionally as a third-party singular pronoun in an effort to establish from the ground up a gender-neutral third party pronoun, because saying "he or she" sucks.
I know the feeling. Years zip by now, it seems.
How about a third person human-only pronoun: "E"? ... possessive pronoun and adjective: "ees" (pr: "eez") ... objective pronoun: "em"?

Doin' good here!
Mazel tov! Thanks for a very solid decade, Warren.
Huzzah on your decade of blogging! Yours is one of my favorites by far, and inspired me to blog myself.
And keep fighting the good fight for "them/they/their" as singular!
