Maxim Monday: Ακουσας νοει
Today’s maxim (Ακουσας νοει) is translated in the source I’m using as “Perceive what you have heard.” Let’s see how that translation holds up. (As usual, definitions are from my trusty Liddell and Scott Greek-English Lexicon, with occasional support from the Joint … Continue reading
Mystical Pregnancy
So, I’m going back through the old FeministFrequency videos, and I saw this one: The Mystical Pregnancy. It led me to this awesome (and terrifying) fanvid, Stay Awake. The pair of videos make me wonder how much of my own … Continue reading
Holy cow, it’s Maxim Monday! This week: Γνωθι μαθων
Man, I thought I was back on track, but nope. Too much going on and I have zero backlog. Anyway, onward: Today’s maxim, as translated in the source I’m using, is “Know what you have learned”(Γνωθι μαθων). That seems like a … Continue reading
#sickcat update
Well, lucky us, it turns out that small-cell lymphoma (if it doesn’t turn into one of its nastier forms, like large-cell lymphoma or leukemia) can mostly be treated like a chronic illness! Admittedly, one which slowly progresses and must be … Continue reading
Cancer, Death, and Other Depressing Shit
Welp, the biopsy I mentioned last time came back with 95% certainty: low-grade lymphoma. I think that means “small cell lymphoma” but will find out more when I meet with the veterinary oncologist today. It’s strange. I’ve known for years … Continue reading
Maxim Monday Returns! Ηττω υπο δικαιου
Today’s maxim, as translated in the source I’m using, is “Be overcome by justice” (Ηττω υπο δικαιου). That seems like a weird phrase, nu? Let’s see if the translation works. (once again, definitions in italics are from my trusty Liddell … Continue reading
Your Hate Mail Will Be Graded: I am an inconsiderate Cow
With a tip of the hat the great John Scalzi (whose hate-mail sporkings I shall never equal), I offer you the following, left on a recent post but clearly in response to this rant about Borderlands 2 (and without having … Continue reading
KITTENS
So, as those of you who follow Nate or moi on Twitter/Facebook/Vine/Flickr already know, we got kittens! They are adorable, and we adopted them from the fabulous folks at The Pixie Project. I figured it’d be a good idea to … Continue reading
Maxim Monday: Γονεις αιδου
This week’s maxim is: Γονεις αιδου, translated in my source as “Respect your parents.” Let’s take a look at this one, shall we? (Both definitions from Liddell & Scott’s Greek-English Lexicon, as usual.) Γονεις – This is the accusative plural … Continue reading
