Wild to harken back to humans thinking a woman’s uterus traveling around her body messing with things is the reason they are so emotional (hystaria) in a post claiming something is 100% impossible because of our advanced understanding of the subject.

Hysteria is in poor taste, and I’m sure the guy wasn’t thinking of a slithering uterus.

But Cluster B personality disorders are what some of the more justified instances of suspected hysteria would be called today. Some others would be stress, others healthy responses to bad situations, and I’m sure some would be willing to go into far more detail.

Course not. I just found the connection between the past of the word and the context of science “wild”

Yes. “Guy.” Even the American “left” can’t help but use the masculine-as-default.

In today’s lesson, an always-seeking-something-to-be-offended-about ideologue learns about “linguistic drift”.

Or, more likely, doesn’t. But that’s par for the course for America’s so-called “left”. (You know, the “left” that the rest of the world considers “centre right”.)
