S3E099: Purveyors of Nonsense

Let it be. America’s never been stronger, poetry, the Jabberwocky.

Appreciating the nonsense of language. Lewis Carol, George McDonald and C.S. Lewis.

Californication, people don’t listen to the lyrics of music but Sumo hears words quite well.

Glossolalia, the world is made out of language.

Children growing up without language.

There’s a linguistic barrier that affects how you see the world.

The primary sin of modernity

The way you use words structures your reality. The modern world is dead and English is haunted.

Thesis, antithesis and now we’re at the synthesis stage.

What you give your attention to you’ll see.

What you’re able to see is circumscribed by your language. 

The reproduction crisis in science.

People find trouble because they’re looking for it.

Charles Darwin and the homeopath.

Cortez arriving in the Americas and the natives being unable to see his ships.

The moose and the helicopter, the yin and yang of existence.

You have to be comfortable making up your own words.

The perfection of logos.
