what a privilege it is to come home and have a cat waiting for you, with their triangle ears and their little meows

"tRaVEl liKe a LocAl" hmmm no, locals have to work, I don't want to do that. I want to travel like a thoughtful, respectful, mid-range tourist who plans to eat her way through the country and drink in as much beauty as she can

they don't tell you this unless you get really deep into Literature but ernest hemingway was putting the 1920-40s equivalent of, like, referencing broken mcdonalds ice cream machines and long cvs receipts in his novels. rope soled spanish sandals were the yeezies of 1937

While watching The Pitt, I suddenly wondered why the dubbing changed to Tamil. Turns out, the character is Tamil. Tamils are everywhere.

my favorite linguistic quirk in any language has to be the m-reduplication in turkish, which consists of repeating a word with an m-prefix to mean "and other things like this". so e.g. "kitap" is book but "kitap mitap" is "books and some other book-like things"

a writing tip I learned from Joan Didion that has truly changed the way I process and use words is she would write ‘xx’ if she couldn’t think of the precise word that belonged in a certain place and come back to find it later as to not interrupt the flow of what she was writing, this way the flow of the form could come out and the precise words—that are somewhere inside of you and simply taking longer to surface than the others—can come to you later, they are already there they are simply taking their time to arise and that shouldn’t interrupt the flow of language seeping out of you in a moment of inspiration
