A certain someone‘s voice is cacophonous to me. While in the literal sense of the word I might be wrong but the physical response I get when I accidentally hear it makes it seem so.

I saw a IG reel posted by Cory Booker of a woman sharing the definition of trumpery. And sure enough it‘s right there in my Miriam-Webster dictionary. Sometimes the universe gets it right.

This was one that I came across and had to look up just for the pronunciation 🤔 A bit of a tongue twister!
pickHighly recommended for the enthusiastic armchair linguist like myself. This is an absolutely fascinating read. And the bibliography is huge!!! The in depth, impeccably referenced research is presented as coming together pieces of a jigsaw, each area of discovery added to the bigger picture. Complex ideas are explained in an accessible & entertaining manner & the whole thing is just so mind-blowingly interesting/intriguing/staggering 🤯🤯🤯
This is an incredibly valid and important point!

Starting this one today. It was a gift from my husband for International Women's Day. And a nice, fresh bookmark as well.
I love any book that teaches me a new word such as "shitgibbin."
Bedtime reading: a gift from friends so, for a change, I actually know what I‘m talking about.

Probably #ldf's fallacy that he is best at is the ad hominem attack. The background picture in the image above is every attack #ldf has said against a person or a group. A picture literally is worth a thousand+ words ... and is horrifying.
