Archival work always seemed really interesting to me.

[Davide Mastracci @DavideMastracci]

NEW: I wrote a small guide explaining how to archive things you see online and why you should. Archiving is essential for journalists, researchers and activists, and the more of us who get in the habit of archiving what we find, the better.

"As if slit by a scalpel, a keyboard-like smile cuts laterally into the corner of the lips." -- Jean Epstein on French Film

"Muscular preambles ripple beneath the skin. Shadows shift, tremble, hesitate. Something is being decided. A breeze of emotion underlines the mouth with clouds. The orography of the face vacillates. Seismic shocks begin. Capillary wrinkles try to split the fault..."

[Aidan McGuire @aidanmcg07]

"A wave carries them away. Crescendo. A muscle bridles. The lip is laced with tics like a theater curtain. everything is movement, imbalance, crisis. Crack. The mouth gives way, like a ripe fruit splitting open..."

No one informed me that the coolest looking movie ever made is a dramatization of a 1,000 year old epic poem from Kyrgyzstan.

Your favorite movies are a greater window into your sexuality than any BDSM/kink test

By contrast, a lot of continental philosophy is politically opposed to elite intervention. From that perspective, if it is intended to move non-specialists, the sort of writing that appeals to artists may simply be strategically superior. /end

@LexDecs Where are you at and what are you studying?

[Aidan McGuire @aidanmcg07]

@anaynalhayat Being able to sit with contradictions, I think is an important aspect of mature belief. An open palmed faith, not holding on to any doctrine so tightly that other ideas, perspectives, loves slip your grasp.
