i actually know quite the opposite. very short in the span of human history. made after women were given the right to vote. purpose built to make shit easier to read for people who dont fucking read. on the right is my preferred alternative. even after MLA was invented, not all books have line breaks between paragraphs. you can just use indents at the beginning of a paragraph without creating an entire line of empty space
like this. which is the purpose of the tab key. which works in word formatting programs but not twitter and twitter clones. because twitter is for MLA formatted redditors that pretend to read and niggers that dont, cant, and never will.
