Iyah May Karmageddon. Sunday Music

I open up my phone on a Monday morning Staring at my screen I'm tired and a little lonely Mr Musk he said some shit the lefts are angry Twitter wars and Gaza man it's overwhelming Maybe that's how life becomes when People less important than a profit line No one cares about your dreams just pay Your tax on time Keep scrolling Hold me near to you now Gender, guns, religion and abortion rights You better pick a tribe and hate the other side Keep scrolling But did you see Taylor live? Man made virus watch the millions die Biggest profit of their lives Here's inflation that's your prize This is Karmageddon Turn on the news and eat their lies Kim or Kanye pick a side Cancel culture what a vibe This is Karmageddon Corporations swear they never lie Politicians bribed for life More than war it's genocide This is Karmageddon Welcome to the chaos of the times If you go left and I go right Pray we make it out alive This is Karmageddon It's fashion week celebs lose ri...

...inventing words and bilinguality. Wednesday Language

https://medicalxpress.com/news/2017-08-bilingual-babies-language.html Are two languages at a time too much for the mind? Caregivers and teachers should know that infants growing up bilingual have the learning capacities to make sense of the complexities of two languages just by listening. In a new study, an international team of researchers, including those from Princeton University, report that bilingual infants as young as 20 months of age efficiently and accurately process two languages....(at link) 2017 comment on the article.:..though, it may be a bit more involved regarding network development and loudness. One needs, really, a much better definition of language as a concept, how it emerges, what they are. - Sigh. It's a period where I can't seem to stop inventing words in two languages. Awhile back the word 'coniglioni', a combination of 'rabbit' (coniglio) and the local equivalent of ass (coglioni. Which would mean testicle but...) came from my mo...

A Touch of Spice (2003) Sunday Music

..that Istanbulesque scent of rich melancholic hurt accepted and flavored into something like a nourishing. Movement and senses. The emergent magic of place, the irrelevance of time, the relevance of events. A fairly frilling my type of movie. I would that it weren't. The differences between rhythms, inevitable sadness and joy inherent in a kitschy waltz already in the past as you dance it, your expressed presence preparing for only the next moments maybe within a tango. We can be so rhetorical. And foolish.

Fossimo Parole/As If We Were Words. Junglebook Swingdance. (Part I) Sunday Music

Fuggo dalla pioggia Lombarda e da quel leggero malaise generale che gira da queste parti e che il mio corpo subisce da ieri. Fuggo nelle canzoncini d’infanzia, di giorni piu leggeri del leggero – prima del arrivo di quella certa pesantezza che si accumula in modo sottile, anche perfido, strada facendo – giorni lunghi e pieni e sempre piu nuovi del nuovo. Con tanti giochi – per caso e fortuna ancora in quei giochi sempre improvvisati e fisici, si immaginava e costruiva e toccava, magari con il tuo miglior amico, e ognuno costruiva il suo mondo e vedeva una cosa diversa allo stesso tempo che condividevate quel gioco, prima del arrivo dei schermi piatti-piatti. E di troppe parole, che contavano tanto meno, stringevano meno, definivano meno. Era ancora il gioco condiviso che creava e definiva le parole. Lo e ancora. Ma adagiamo troppo facilmente in quel comodo peso accumulato finche quel peso comincia e definirci. Come se fossimo parole. (I escape from the Lombardian rain and its diffuse, ...

Could Your Favorite Stories Permanently Change Your Brain? Wednesday Narratives

http://bigthink.com/philip-perry/could-your-favorite-stories-permanently-change-your-brain Storytelling has been with us since the dawn of civilization, and perhaps even the beginning of our species. The left hemisphere of our brain automatically puts things into a narrative format , in order for us to make sense of the world and ourselves. In the bestselling book Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind , historian Yuval Noah Harari makes the argument that our development from early bands to complex societies only took place because of our ability to tell and believe stories . Shared stories and the values encapsulated within them helped us to organize, inspired us to set lofty goals, and motivated us to take risks, learn from these experiences, grow, and so develop new methods to interact with the world. But the tale doesn’t end there. Today, particularly in the era of the internet and social media, the power of good storytelling may be even more crucial than ever befor...
