Come and see @NatalieBraber talk about 'Intangible cultural heritage in the UK: Recognising language as heritage' as part of the @MCRLinguistics seminar series at @ManMetUni on 25th June. The event is hybrid, but it would be great to see people there! eventbrite.co.uk/e/intangible-c…

LOVE an inspirational library!

They buried the lede on this new study. It's not that exercise beats out SSRIs for depression treatment, but that *just* dancing has the largest effect of *any treatment* for depression. That's kind of beautiful.

Spent some time thinking about branding last week. Especially how to develop your brand and retain the original idea. Think Pink Floyd might have nailed it? #EverydayWriting #WrittenIdentity #Savvy #Ideas #MondayMotivation #Inspiration #Branding #Brand #AlbumCoverDesign #Album
Very interesting piece! Think business use of ‘front line’ also came from the army, in the First World War? And wasn't much appreciated by those who had actually been on the front line...

Anyone help with ‘Crispite’. It is, I think a mineral in other uses, but obvs. not here, where he repsents the antithesis of the smart swell. Cap. C suggests a root in a specific individual.
