  • Suppose I agree.

    Genuinely, does it matter?

    Lots of good things are unnatural. Cherries with edible flesh and proportionally small seeds are unnatural because of GMOs. Sweet watermelons are unnatural. Clothing is unnatural because we’re born naked. Hell, cooking food is unnatural, unless you’d like to claim one particular snapshot in time of human history is the ideal against which to compare all modern things (rather than just saying “anything a wolf doesn’t do is unnatural”).

    Technology and society evolved past the limitations of “natural”-ness, and that’s a good thing for most people. Yeah, you could live a “natural” life, but what does it gain you in exchange for taking all good food and sex and clothes away from you?




  • My friend was analyzing meter of an interesting phrase they came up with (“imminently deducible”) last night and I fell a little more in love. They concluded it was something like anapestic with a bunch of spondees, which I opposed due to disliking spondees on principle (they’re just two long feet you put in when nothing else fits! also, “imminently” is trochaic in my opinion). What do you think?
