'La mer est plus puissante que le pilote, et elle est loin d'être parfaitement prévisible. Aristote est dans un monde pour ainsi dire marin, où la nature nous fait assez sentir combien nous ne sommes d'elle ni maîtres ni possesseurs.

A thing that I said twice today: "the worst outcome here is not that you don't get into med school. It's that you go to med school and wake up one day when you're 35 with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt and a job you hate but can't quit.

Zea Mays' cover of "Gogo eta gorputzaren zilbor hesteak" ("The Umbilical Cords of the Body and Mind"), originally recorded by Mikel Laboa. I love Aiora Renteria's voice, and I love this arrangement.

Zea Mays is a band from Bilbao, Spain. Aiora Renteria is the singer.
In case you're wondering, #MeFites are members of this site:
A bunch of us joined Mastodon last weekend after the twitter boycot. Unlike most other MeFites who joined, I've never had a twitter account.
I'm trying the #introduction thing again because I forgot to use hashtags when I first joined. I'm a #mefite and I live in #Charlottesville VA. I'm interested in #USpolitics. We've elections coming up next month in #Virginia.

@stoof are you a MeFite? Just curious.

Hi, y'all. I'm another MeFite who just joined Mastodon. My username means carpenter in Sumerian (usually transcribed naĝar), and that was my occupation till recently.
