Pluto, Jupiter and Neptune: Caravaggio, 1597-1600, ceiling painting in oil, 300 x 152 cm (Casino dell'Aurora, Villa Boncompagni Ludovisi, Rome)
Fuck Pluto. Somebody's got to own
Something
Sometime. The rest
Is jest
The rest,
As the troublous wo/man
In the street was saying
To no one
After her bus went by without
Stopping, in the world
Night.

Born a few months after
the naming
of what was thought to be
the ninth planet
A normal dog
Unlike the endlessly neurotic
anthropomorphic
dog Goofy
How refreshing
Spoke only two words in his entire life
"Kiss me"

The Shit Map...9 billion words of geocoded Tweets 2013-2014: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
Alright, let's keep going: the Bitch Map. This and Shit have a similar and common pattern (see other maps below): image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
So pretty much everyone's swearing. We just don't all prefer the same words. The Asshole Map.: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
The Faggot Map: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
The Motherfucker Map (as one word): image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
I hesitate to post this. We're doing some work on slang for a news outlet and they say any word is cool except this.: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015
The Damn Map...hydro-electric polysemy doesn't seem to be skewing things too much at least: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 16 July 2015

The Douche Map...: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
The Hell Map...notably lining up with Shit etc rather than Gosh...: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
The Slut Map... : image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
...and then the Whore Map, very similar to slut...I guess I'll need to run hoe next: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
The Bastard Map...a weaker pattern here.: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
Last one for now: the Fuckboy Map. Also one of the fastest rising words in 2014: image via Jack Grieve @JWGrieve, 17 July 2015
