The Linguist->'How many languages do you speak?' progression is the same as asking a doctor how many diseases they've got

My son (14yo) went on one as well yesterday. I don't see what's wrong with sitting down with someone and talking absolute rubbish with a hot drink, seeing as that's pretty much how I spend most of my time together with my partner anyway...

Alien is great. The visual effects stand up because everything is really there. None of this CG nonsense. Aliens is a completely different film, and also great

See my list there in brackets? English, German, Chinese and Arabic... All basically mean 'river horse'. Not unusual for English and German to make the same decisions, and Arabic to a lesser extent, but Chinese? That's not even from Proto Indo European!

Etymology is always a baffling mess of Really Cool Connections and No That's Totally Arbitrary. Let me tell you about the whole river-horse thing... (hippopotamus, nilpferd, 河马, faras alnahr...)

I love that bit. They know the size of the plane, they know how many people have checked in, and they provide a room that is a tiny fraction of those numbers, with inaccessible stairs and literally nothing for overtired toddlers to do...

And everyone on the right, including Fartwidge, is jumping up and down saying that 'people will be paying more tax just to subsidise increased spending on welfare'...
Well... Yes... That's mostly the point of taxation, why are you saying that like it's a bad thing...

The Arrival is one of my favourites too, and has resonated with all the refugees that I've shown it to. Whenever I see a copy in a bookshop or library, I have to touch it. Same with Maus and Watchmen.
Other artists I like: Jon Klassen (esp. with Mac Barnett) and Eric Winter, because... reasons...
