Things I Have Learned from Kripke Tonight:

- If x is identical to y, then x is necessarily identical to y. Oh wait, never mind. He just went on about that point for 3 pages and then was like “JK LOLS ACTUALLY NOT TRUE!”
- Satan may or may not have invented bifocals.

The is of “Socrates is human” expresses the relation of subject and predicate; the is of “Socrates is a man” expresses identity. It is a disgrace to the human race that it has chosen to employ the same word “is” for these two entirely different ideas.

— Russel:

a) has no idea how languages are formed (hint: words are not “chosen”) AND

b) apparently believes the whole human race speaks English.


Yet this guy is a linguistic philosopher so important that his essay is in my textbook. Which I paid money for. Arrrrhfurehgghg this is why I don’t think I could ever go into academics. Or at least, not in anything remotely resembling philosophy.

We play a recording of this at Indigo and I can’t decide if I love it or hate it. The carol of the bells part is pretty cool but there’s too much cheering by the audience and it bugs me. I want to listen to the song, not randos screaming!

TUMBLR UPDATE FROM WORK

They’re loving the Grey’s Anatomy music today. Like, who else even knows Meiko - Boys with Girlfriends? (besides me and Alex, obvs.)

My feet hurt and I spent half my day’s wages on two shirts at Winners before I even started. Fail.

News Bulletin of the Night:

I can semi-decently straighten my hair with a brush + blowdryer. WHAT? When did this happen? I have no fucking idea. Decided to try it for the first time since like, grade 8 and my hair looks amazing. It’s probably about 90% straight. Just the ends and the underneith need touch-ups.

Learning to do this was on my “things I need to learn before I graduate” list and apparently I can cross it off soon?

I was at Place d’Orleans today, and saw these masterpieces.
Glitter wonder.



OH. MY. GOD. Do not even get me started on my love for these. We have them at Indigo and I go into the kids section about once an hour to play with them. Mariel just carries one around all the time and apparently sells a ton because everyone who sees it wants one.
