I have a paper based "meme journal" where I print/log memes but also trends and language usage over time.
I'm interested in "algospeak", basically common euphemisms that get used to get around algorithmic censorship (e.g., unalive, corn), but the articles I'm finding are from 2022-2023 and I'm not seeing an actual log of terms.
Anyone have suggestions? I might post em in a blog post later on.
I also keep a tally of generational slang, from "the cat's pajamas" to "you thought you ate".
