The vatican needed a latin word for tweet, because the pope tweets. Or tweeted, I suppose, given the whole dead or dying situation. Anyway, they call them breviloquia (s breviloquium) which is honestly a great word even tho it’s not very brief itself. Given its nature and etymology I think we should be able to use it platform-independently and apply it to toots, skeets and even Truths as well. Anyway thank you for reading this breviloquium.

@marlies What's the abbreviation? BL? Bre? Bum?

Ain't nobody got time to write that!

@jandi I’d say BQ

@marlies Grammatically suspect and already a trademark, difficult task!

Edit: Trademark problem solved, they went bankrupt! There's a future for bq!

@jandi @marlies it would still be weird for people who used their products tho (my first smartphone!!)
