I'm-
Like I'm really sorry but I can't stop laughing at myself. I had to actually read this answer to understand it was about Sappho. For some reason my tired brain interpreted all that as TUMBLR being named after an ancient lesbian or just feminist poet.
Like I completely mixed "we" and "homeland* in a wah that would make communists proud.
Initially before the first "she" dropped I even thought it was Tumblr dot com being named after a straight man with somehow the dumbest name in the world.
Then knowing how Americans can be weirdly nationalistic sometimes I thought it was America OP was talking about, so I thought it was some weirds thiung Amerigo Vespucci related. Then since I know he was a man I thought it was a non American whose homeland was named after a lesbian (getting closer).
I'm just-...I think that was my cue to stop doomscrolling and actually get rest.
It just hit again that we're named after the homeland of an ancient poet who loved women so much it echoed through time...
