  1. I believe this is the first time I have ever been picture-captioned as a #folklorist, so I'll take that as a win, even if the article then doesn't say anything more about it.

    It was a real privilege to be part of the New #Carnival Company's 2026 launch last week.

  5. niche post but I've been going in yet another Ruth Rubin deep dive lately preparing for a song teaching thing this winter--she was a Canadian-American #Yiddish song collector and #folklorist --and I came across this 1978 musical evening recording with her in #Montreal c/o the Jewish Public Library's old cassette collection digitized at the Yiddish Book Center. Her lecturing mostly in Yiddish about folksongs & after 30min or so, singing.

  10. Lady Augusta Gregory was a keen #folklorist She collected an anecdote saying "Aristotle of the books was very wise, but the bees got the best of him in the end!"🐝 She later wrote a play 'Aristotle's Bellows' based on Irish folklore & mythology #FolkyFriday #Writers #Spéirghorm #Art #JBYeats

  11. So, originally "based" meant you smoked ("freebased" smokable) crack, then it meant you were weird like someone who smoked crack, then it meant you weren't afraid to be called weird because you were unapologetic and you had that swagger, then it meant you were unapologetic about being alt-right, and then it meant you're an asshole who's drunk that alt-ride koolaid. What a ride this little slang has been on. #linguistodons #folklorist #slang #histodons

  21. Playing image roulette with this post, but I make no bones about liking the robust #art often found in #graffiti. It's the #artwork I take the most photos of, though I dislike when it defaces or threatens. Like homelessness, it comes from the ills and emotions fermenting in a sour mashup of our society's worst tendencies. As a #folklorist, I see it also spring from desire for change as well as coping with it all.

    Is #Banksy a sell out? An artistic master? Does the art say anything relevant? bbc.com/news/articles/c5yd66w7
