Closer to a text book but still accessible: Words in the Mind: An Introduction to the Mental Lexicon by Jean Aitchison is a favourite of mine

This is our Luna. Thought about naming her Dusty but went with Luna as in the moon which is also grey. No idea about Sailor Moon!

Looks great. I tried reading 'Chaos' when I was in highschool but didn't have the requisite attention span. Recently read 'The Information' and was completely enthralled.

I was in the same boat and finally pulled the plug on Evernote. I went with OneNote mostly because I've got Windows on my desktop. The Android app is not bad, but doesn't sync sometimes. Others like Obsidian but I wanted something more straightforward.

I have an uneven sensitivity to wood. A few years ago I started wearing merino wool for its insulating qualities. Socks - no problem. Leggings - no problem. Gloves and hats - no problem. Tops - sometimes no problem, sometimes too itchy. Your hats are great btw.

I agree. Favourite line from Poor Things - Emma Stone's character shouting defiantly, "I am my own means of production!"

That "almost" is doing an awful lot of the work, seeing as there are few to no agreed upon definitions of intelligence, human, artificial or otherwise

I love the visual rendering of the song. Looks like a pencil or charcoal drawing.

Our previous family rice cooker was named Dolores. She would politely announce, "steaming has started" for the pressure phase, knew a few languages, and played little chimes.

I was on the fence with that one. The pretension struck me as self-mocking, and sort of operatic and absurd overall. Still, not one of my favourites

I was looking at Sol Lewitt's work recently. His titles are consistently very literal. That being said, evocative titles work well too. I try to come up with interesting titles for my work but it's a struggle. I end up with a lot of numbered series. Leaving everything as 'Untitled' has appeal!

South Korea has just impeached President Yoon. He instated martial law last December for a total of 6 hours. He faces separate criminal charges for insurrection. Good to see the rule of law still functioning in some places.

Agreed on the blindspot! I would love to try those Tanzanian dishes regardless (and maybe that French fry thing)

There's a pretty good chance that any "traditional" diet that relies on staple carbs with lots of veg and fruit and less meat is going to be anti-inflammatory. They just don't have the cachet of pairing with wine and costal vistas

"The effect of the scratches over the surface of this image, Bruno said, was not unlike the effect of craquelure glaze on the surface of a Rembrandt painting: it allowed us to see time, to apprehend the massive interim from a then to a now."

"The Neanderthal, in contrast, wanted to record what he saw in dreams, to put into the world what otherwise did not exist. The marks that Thal was believed to have left, on cave walls, on rocks, on animal bones, were abstract codes of great mystery and transcendent beauty."

"Sleep was key to thought, and to intellectual development. As man’s thoughts became ever more complex, the longer he needed to sleep. The longer man slept, Bruno said, the more he dreamed, and the more penetrating and wondrous his waking thought became. Sleep is time travel, he said."

It turns out that for Rachel Kushner's Creation Lake, I liked the book very much.

What an awesome video! I will never forget the smell of steamed silkworm larvae. It is eaten as a snack sometimes in South Korea and the odour is.... distinctive
