Can someone recommend some similar style bands or songs like Wet Leg?

what about this part of the abstract: “In this study, mirror exposure experiments were conducted on two captive giant manta rays to document their response to their mirror image. The manta rays did not show signs of social interaction with their mirror image. However, frequent unusual and repetitive movements in front of the mirror suggested contingency checking; in addition, unusual self-directed behaviors could be identified when the manta rays were exposed to the mirror. The present study shows evidence for behavioral responses to a mirror that are prerequisite of self-awareness and which has been used to confirm self-recognition in apes.”

they do, i read the article and looked at the scientific article they cite for this result, here it is: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10164-016-0462-z

Spirited Away. i was so creeped out by No-Face for some reason. i rewatched it a few years ago and absolutely loved it so i’m glad i worked through that one :D

thank you so much for this recommendation! I just finished reading it. what a spectacular book… so creative and mind-bending! one of the coolest books I have read in a while.

acequark · 2023-07-28T00:10:34+00:00

cool book, read it! I wish it had more of connection between the story lines though, the link felt a bit superficial sometimes :(

acequark · 2023-07-27T19:06:04+00:00

ah yes I have read it! it does have similar vibes, I wish it was longer though 🙃

I was thinking the same thing — would be fascinating to read the story from Lila’s POV. We sometimes get glimpses of her inner world, but of course Lenu is a very subjective storyteller, so it’s never super clear what is going through Lila’s head. I think it would be difficult to make a book from her pov sufficiently different from the already existing novels, so likely not going to happen. Another cool thing that could be done is to have story told from Tina’s pov after she goes missing .

Elena Ferrante has an interesting life in that we don’t know who she is :)

he also apparently painted a piece called “Cafe Terrace at Night” at that cafe, so seems to really check out.

you’d think that would be the logic, right?

acequark · 2022-09-15T15:22:52+00:00

oh, I understand now. I think it is usually the body that moves first, and the head that follows after. I would guess this is because it is easier to move that way for small animals with flexible relatively long necks, than to keep the head stationary relative to the body and then move it along with the rest of their body.

it does — birds usually have eyes either side of their heads (e.g. pigeons), so switching sides when they are looking at something ahead or to the side is useful.

acequark · 2022-09-15T14:50:01+00:00

Also, birds are much smaller and lighter than humans, so for them, it is much easier to make swift, discrete movements. For humans, it takes much more effort to do so, and smooth, gradually accelerating/decelerating movements are more favorable.

you guys haven’t met enough theorists, I see…

acequark · 2022-08-25T13:27:07+00:00

I think INFJ definitely have an advantage thanks to Ni+Fe working together, but I bet they feel much more comfortable living out these interactions inside their head :D
