The word is "craxis."

And to think that I always assumed that people are extraverted because they're dumb and incapable of applying what they learn in life about other people. In fact, despite what these studies show, I'm still going to hold onto that theory.

What a disturbing thought.

Anticious: adj. Wondering what our ancestors would think of all this.

From antecedent + anxious. Pronounced "an-tish-ous."

(Continued)..."approach" motivation, or the degree to which you report liking something.

(Continued)...end of the day to catch a glimpse of what the other half of our brains might be "thinking," although we may not be as adept at "talking" about it.

Etterath: The feeling of emptiness after a long and arduous process is finally complete--which leaves you relieved that it's over but missing the stress that organized your life into a mission.

Norwegian etter, after + ratne, decay. Pronounced "et-er-ath."

The word is indosentia.

(Continued)...movable goalposts, which makes you want someone to come along and score your progress in discrete and measurable units--which may not clear up where you're going but would at least reassure you that you're one step closer to getting there.

From addled, muddled or unclear, + worth.

(Continued)...might have buried in your mental backyard.

German, alt, old + Schmerz, pain. Pronounced alt- schmerts.

(Continued)...chick is growing.

Beer is fun to drink, but is usually boring to read about. This is not one of those times. Everyone who loves beer should read this book.

I think he might have misinterpreted the film.

From Oz + the prairie, with you caught somewhere in between. Pronounced "oz-uh-ree."

There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our successes. The fertile Earth, the straight tree rows, the sturdy trunks, and the ripe fruit. And the children dying of hunger must die because a profit cannot be taken from an orange. And coroners must fill in the certificates--died of malnutrition--because the food must rot if not sold at a profit.

🤣🤣🤣 (A gueuze is a type of lambic, a Belgian beer).

I just started re-reading Rushdie's autobiography, Joseph Anton, which is one of my all-time favorite books. I've been wanting to read it again since last month's unfortunate stabbing.

Interesting. When I drink beer at home, I pour it from the bottle into a chilled glass that I keep in my freezer. But now that I know this, I'm not going to do that anymore.
