The linguistics of the internet is just fascinating. Not the best audiobook read and a lot of info to take in (which is why this was started in like 2021 and finished in 2024) but altogether fascinating.

A fascinating discussion of the language of the internet from its beginnings to today, although not a well-organized one, per se. It's fun to trace the origins of the current meme traditions.
