I read this statement and realized, yes—the Fortean dominant has come for Steven Pinker.
Not in the way he says, but yes, the damned facts have become a flood. Random balls bouncing together, and that’s it, does not constitute the solid foundation of a university curriculum in this time.
Having a beard means sometimes having dry skin. nostr:npub19pj6f0nc9q6xr26qe3g8m6xe3hwe0d6p6zcvf57cm3kayghjdj0slnlenu suggested I try the beef tallow in our 'fridge. Been walking around wafting beef all day.
8/10 will not do this again. But maybe.
beef tallow …maybe doesn’t fix this?
thank you for your contribution! 👀
This is not an easy question to answer, there are so many! Among them all, I would love to have seen John Townsend of Newport, Rhode Island, working in his shop. (1733-1809)

This example blew my mind. Zaha Hadid’s building for Beijing was copied in Chongqing and the copy was on schedule to beat the original to completion 😂 https://www.dezeen.com/2013/01/02/zaha-hadid-building-pirated-in-china/

When I was a kid my outdoor cat would disappear for a long while from time to time, I could tell you stories. He was too smart for his own good, but he survived. Loved that cat.
I was gonna say “what a dog” but that isn’t right
I’m stoked about this new collaboration between Demetri Kofinas and Grant Williams. They are publishing it free through both their platforms. No subscription required. https://fountain.fm/episode/rrnOUyz6B0cs8zmPtsB7
