@mxcreant I think its fairly common for Chinese people educated in the Chinese system to read English to a high level but not have spoken a single English word? They even have neologism for it; zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%95%9E…

@worried_mind i love newtown festival but it is the spiritual home of white hippies

I was feeling jealous of everyone in Wellington going to Newtown festival and was thinking it looks like such a lovely day but then I saw a video of a carny man spinning some sort of stick with blades on the end and I never want to go there.

In a tough week Neotenica by Joon Oluchi Lee has been unbelievably good company. I'm so grateful for friends who recommend and give me books, for people who write books and books. nightboat.org/book/neotenica/
