Hi 👋 My name is Sofia and I research the language of excessive food videos online! #LanguageAndFood #CarnivalesqueConsumption
A bit of Baltic sea before the year runs out. Windy, cold, and peace of mind - exactly what's needed right now.

We have a Chinese grandma in the family. She's visiting and I haven't stopped eating for the last 12 hours 🙃

A Christmas miracle: a gym class on the day before Christmas without a single Christmas song. Instead: party music, disco lights, awesome vibes 👌 🤩

The challenges of 'getting' children to eat veg are complex.

Analysis with @bogdanahuma.bsky.social unpicks the threads of resistance during an everyday family mealtime.

Would you eat the green beans?

Any time spent outside is a good time. #SundayFunday, rubbish weather, but nice tour with deer, swans, geese, cranes, and a beaver 🦫

Halb 8 morgens. Erstmal 40 Minuten auf den Zug warten müssen weil die DB-App 4mal ihre Meinung geändert hat ob der Zug nun pünktlich oder verspätet ist und man deswegen on time am Bhf war.
Gut, dass der Zug nur mit der Hälfte der Wagen fährt, da kann man sich zumindest gleich wieder warm kuscheln 🫠

Sprechen ist Handeln, es muss sich deshalb an moralischen Standards orientieren. Wo unser Sprachgebrauch an solchen Standards scheitert, müssen wir ihn und unser sprachliches Selbstverständnis infrage stellen.

Mit Anatol Stefanowitsch, moderiert von Rosa Hesse
