Hello to new kindred spirits and siblings-in-arms! I guess now is the best time as any to share our latest publication Patterns of Panow: Dimensions of Mobility among the Pantaron Manobo (by myself and Myfel). Here's the first part:

Not to blow my own trumpet but it does feel like maybe we were onto something here ..

Biology is far more interesting than simple categories and being human entails an astonishingly complex interplay of biology and culture. “Sex is a Spectrum: the biological limits of the binary” @PrincetonUPress publishing May 6th!

Paul McCartney wrote ‘Give Ireland back to the Irish’ day after Bloody Sunday, it spent 8 weeks in the charts despite being banned by the BBC.

John Lennon wrote ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’ in solidarity with the people of Derry and donated all royalties to the Civil Rights Movement.

Olfactory language can have a visceral impact. There is a contrast between these article titles: certainly smell is implicit in “rotting rubbish”, but it somewhat belies the abject horror of the smell of flesh being reported by other media outlets.

15 years ago, Rage Against The Machine went live on BBC 5Live Breakfast. They cut the broadcast when we unexpectedly hit the 'correct' lyrics. Surprise! Three days later, YOU shocked the world (and Simon Cowell) and made "Killing In The Name" #1 on the UK pop charts, toppling The X-Factor’s dreary monopoly of the “UK Christmas #1”. 100% of the proceeds of the single were donated to UK homeless charities. ‘Twas a Merry Christmas indeed!

Jouis has just signified co-authorship of Kant's Prolegomena. Mademoiselle Jouis: "J'ouis ici plus-de-jouir" (I hear surplus-enjoyment here.)

It really is astonishing that Adrian basically created an English idiom.
Face eating leopards is beyond an internet joke by now. It’s just a saying.

Back when MTV was abandoning music videos for reality TV and the internet was a place none of us really understood, we made a habit of putting ourselves in front of a camera with a silly idea, throwing it to the dogs of the world wide web, and seeing where it took us. Before then, a homemade, rudimentary music video like this couldn't have dreamed of winning a Grammy, and we aren't positive, but we're pretty sure that in today's internet age, it wouldn't have a chance either. But "Here It Goes Again" happened because at just the right time, with just the right amount of internet literacy, four guys in dandy suits with eight treadmills and a beginner-to-intermediate grasp on choreography (who were bestowed with the immense advantage of having help from the brilliant @bigbadtrish) gave it a go, again and again and again and again.
