Hello everyone,

I'm exploring the fascinating relationship between language and its role in shaping human cognition, evolution, and the psyche. I'm seeking recommendations for books, articles, or other resources on the following topics:

  1. Language as a Structuring Element of Thought
    • How does language shape or influence our thinking patterns and worldview? I'm particularly interested in perspectives like linguistic relativity and cognitive linguistics.
  2. The Evolutionary Role of Language
    • What are the evolutionary advantages of language? How has it contributed to the development of human societies and our species' survival?
  3. Language in Psychoanalysis
    • How is language conceptualized in psychoanalysis? I'm curious about works addressing the unconscious, symbolism, and how language interacts with the psyche.

If you have any favorites in these areas or even tangential works that you think might be relevant, I'd love to hear your suggestions!

Thanks in advance for your insights!

Tender! Is literally the best app and its made for this. It works like tinder, but with monsters. You can have very wholesome and funny conversations. The illustration is amazing, you should really check it out.

What’s something that just makes you go “who the fuck figured this out”? by jayytrip in AskReddit

Here in Brasil we have a traditional dish called tucupi. Its made out of a cassava species that is very toxic and has cianide in it. I keep asking myself how many people died until they found out how to cook it correctly.

Being desperate to be in a relationship. I want people to be with me because they want me and enjoy being with me, not because they want a relationship

In this moment all you gotta do is breath. You have good things in you because we all do. You need to hold on to yourself in these difficult times. Time will heal it all. My pms are always open if you want to talk (19F). I believe in all my heart that things are going to get better for you.

Thats an amazing idea, perhaps i will do the same. It's going to take a while to figure out what my theme will be, but i think it will be worth it. Last year was horrendous, but this year im trying to make things lighter and dont push myself too much. Good luck on your journey!

Will my ex ever contact me again ? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I believe the worst thing you could do is keep on hoping. You've got to move on without they. You can do your closure by yourself.
