More posts from my microblog

[jayeless]

Usually when I do a linkpost I mostly link to the long posts, but if I do them more often, I figure I can afford to link to the short posts, too. So here you are:

• I linked to an interesting article by Usman Khawaja on the hostility of Australian cricket to players of immigrant backgrounds, and how this is sloooowly changing. (No real point linking to my post I guess, that just goes straight to the article.)
• A post about "all X is not Y" not meaning the same as "not all X is Y". Spawned some discussion in the comments, too. I want to clarify I don't usually complain about minor variations in the use of language, but this one annoys me because I always assume the other person meant what they literally wrote and I have to go back and read it again once I realise that can't be right.
• I finished R.F. Kuang's The Burning God (the last in her military fantasy trilogy) and I posted a review of it to my homepage. I liked it a lot better than the second book but it still was not perfect.
• Lastly, a post about cats' thermoneutral zone, which turns out to be much higher than humans', so I guess I should stop worrying when Gidget wants to go out on scorching hot days 😁
