Talk:Discourse
found an example of a tumblr account that called itself "a discourse blog" so it seems like the term is used without irony by some people? Unless I'm missing the irony in this blog.--aethel (talk) 02:37, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- I was looking at the blog and it doesn't seem ironic at all. It's literally just a blog creating discourse in the dictionary definition sense. SavannahM (talk) 20:33, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
Dropping the citation for a recent TWC article on linguistic shifts in fandom and the use of "discourse" here - will come back later to edit into the page, unless someone wants to tackle it sooner than I can manage! - Fandomgeographies (talk) 13:56, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
