Preparing for my lecture tomorrow on the mental lexicon.

Just zooming in on Lawrence, it's pretty grotesque. Why does my district run 5.5 hours west to the Colorado border, but not to literally 5 minutes in either direction on I-70?

Looking up the phone number for my member of congress, and am reminded of how gerrymandered Kansas is.

To me the emphasis on the second 'cookie' does a lot here. It's like "have a cookie 🤩", but without it, it sounds more like "have a cookie 🙄".

On my drive to MidPhon I passed right by this very small town with a great name.

Even though I've definitely been posting less than I did in my most active days in the Other Place, I've been enjoying my time here a lot!

"Korean tangerine"? Sorry, these are gyool. My goal is to get this loaned into English ✌️ #LabPhon19

OK I found the complete list of previously discontinued Apeach emoticons, and the two in blue were my absolute favorites.

I've ridden one of those trains! It's beautiful up there. They also have these nice elevated walkways so you can walk amongst the trees.

One thing I learned in grad school is that it does not matter what you have just tried to cook, no matter how bad it turned out, just add this and it will taste great.

I made an appearance in the #icphs2023 photo album (with guest appearances by @roryturnbull.bsky.social and I think maybe @rsburdin.bsky.social?)

Did they plant the flowers to match the no littering sign, or did they design the sign to match the flowers? Either way, A+

Korea is open for business 📶

I bought this bag of rice and on the back it has pictures and descriptions of the different birds that live in Korean rice fields 🦆 I love this.

I vowed to never post my wordle but this sequence from a few days ago is too good not to share.

I liked this sign I saw today. Instead of two Es, they just wrote one E and made it long 💯

Yay? I guess I joined right after I graduated, but I forget why. Linguist twitter was not as active back then.

So I guess these masks will protect you from.. Korean? (Looks like someone used an automatic translator to disguise their product as Made in Korea.)

I was definitely garden pathed by this headline. It took me about 15 seconds to figure out what it was saying. I kept wondering "face restrictions?? do they mean masks?"

This (same) figure shows that relationship between production and perception. Each plot shows a different process, starting in the upper left and moving across: general nasalization, lateral nas, complex nas, prog lateralization, regress lat, decoronalization, and velarization /6
