Small victories

I finally figured out how to get my iPad/phone to let me say "fucking" and "fuck" without duckifying it.

Hooray!

So how?

Magic.

Okay, no. But. It lets you set up shortcuts -- the example default, which I deleted early on, was "omw" as a shortcut for "On my way!" So I just set up "fucking" as a shortcut for "fucking", and now it doesn't try to correct me out of it.

(I like my swear words, and ducking just doesn't cut it.)

Useful!

I wonder if that would work on my android tablet.

For an Android tablet, I'd try Swiftkey (https://swiftkey.com/en) - its autocorrect is awesome and it recognizes words (fucking, fandom, fanfiction, etc) when you select them in autocorrect and then actually suggests those words in the future. It's not as good for iOS because of Apple restrictions, but it's amazing for Android.

I would love for my tablet to suggest the word "fuck."
