Has Lingthusiasm gotten you excited about linguistics or reignited your long-slumbering interest in linguistics? But now you wish you had more people to nerd out about linguistics and other language-y topics with? 

You can hear from us more often than monthly by following @lingthusiasm on various social media, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Bluesky, Mastodon, and LinkedIn, and have a look at who else is interacting with us for more linguistics nerds to follow! 

For a more intense dose of linguistics, you can also check out the Lingthusiasm Discord server! 

Discord is a private chatroom site – it’s like Slack or IRC, if you’ve used either of those, and if you haven’t, all you really need to know is how to type words in a box and people can help you with anything else. 

Here are some fun things to expect from the Lingthusiasm Discord server:

• MANY linguistically-themed custom emoji, most of which are made by your fellow lingthusiasts, including a wonderful array of wugmoji!  
• Channels to talk about each new Lingthusiasm episode as well as older episodes if you’re making your way through the back catalogue
• Channels to talk about further linguistics topics, such as interesting linguistics links people find, linguistics memes, and teaching yourself linguistics
• Channels about linguistically-related topics including language games and puzzles, conlanging, language learning, and academia support
• A language-peevery-free space! 
• The all-important food and cute channels, if you’re feeling unsure what to say about linguistics but you want to participate, you can always post a photo of a delicious foodstuff or an adorable pet! (Warning: food and pet conversations have been known to turn into conversations about regional words for foods and origins of pet names!)
• And more, we’re open to suggestions! 

To join the Lingthusiasm Discord and make some lingthusiastic pocket friends, become a patron of Lingthusiasm at the Lingthusiast tier or above.
