“Simone de Beauvoir alone would never have gotten me from intellect to action”

Note from OBOS co-founder Judy Norsigian: After publication of my reflections piece in the June 2019 issue of the American Journal of Public Health (AJPH), I received this wonderful email from Kay Johnson. Her story reminds us all once again of how ONE life experience (reading a book/having a terrific teacher or mentor/participating in an eye-opening social justice action/etc.) can change the course of our lives and bring us into partnership with others also committed to racial, economic and social justice for all.

The Very Early Perimenopause: What We Can Learn from Dr. Jerilynn Prior’s Research

by Nina Coslov

In my early 40s, I started noticing changes in my body. A once great sleeper, I was now waking at 2 a.m. – often with lots of energy and sometimes with anxiety. I’d be awake for about 3 hours before I could get back to sleep. Around the same time, premenstrual breast tenderness returned — something I hadn’t experienced since my 20s, before I had children. Not long after, I’d notice from time to time a pervasive edginess, a revving — an energetic ... More

Book Week 2019: Gretchen McCulloch's Because Internet


Welcome to the final review post of Book Week 2019. In the intro to Book Week 2019, I explain what I'm doing. The 'week' has turned out to be eight days. If you're perturbed about that, I'm happy to offer you a full refund on your subscription fees for this blog.

On with the show. Today's book is:


Because Internet

Understanding the new rules of language (US subtitle)
Understanding how language is changing (UK subtitle)

by Gretchen McCulloch
Riverhead, 2019 (N America)
Harvill Secker, 2019 (UK)


Gretchen McCulloch describes herself as an internet linguist: writing about internet language for people on the internet. She actually does a lot more than that, with daily blogging at All Things Linguistic for years and being one half of the Lingthusiasm podcast team and writing on all sorts of linguistic themes for all sorts of publications. So, I expect many readers of this blog will already know her and have heard about this book. 

US Cover
I expected Because Internet to be good, knowing Gretchen's work, but I also probably (in my grumpy, middle-aged, oh-do-we-have-to-talk-about-emojis-again? way) expected it to be faddish. There have been too many just-plain-bad, (orig. AmE) jumping-on-the-bandwagon books about emojis, and I've got(ten) a bit sour on the topic. 

This book is so much more than I expected it to be. 

I should have known better. Having read and heard much of her work, I should have expected that this would be a truly sophisticated approach to language and to general-audience linguistics writing. So far in Book Week 2019, I've recommended the books as gifts for A-level students/teachers, science lovers, and language curmudgeons. This book is good for all those groups and more. 

UK cover
The key is in the subtitle(s).* This is not just a book about emojis and autocomplete (and, actually, autocomplete isn't even in the index). This is a book about the relationship between speech and writing and how that's changed with technology. It seamlessly introduces theories of why language changes, how change spreads and how communication works in a time when the potential for change is high and the potential for changes to spread is unprecedented. 

That seamless introduction of linguistic concepts is the reason I've started this book from the beginning and not skipped around (unlike for other books in Book Week—where the rule is that I don't have to read the whole book before I start writing about it). In most books about language for non-linguists, I'm able to skim or skip the bit where they talk about the basics of how language works and the classic studies on the topic and the ideas springing from them. McCulloch covers those issues and those studies (the Labovs, the Milroys, the Eckerts), but since this is intertwined with looking at how language is changing in the 21st century—because (of the) internet—it was worth my while to read straight through. The great thing about the language of the internet is: even when it looks really different from non-internet language, it's still illustrating general principles about how language, communication, and society work. But it also shows how society is changing because of technology, particularly in changing who we are likely to interact with or hear from, In the process, it gives a history of the internet that's enlightening even for those of us who've lived through it all. (I've just flipped open to a section about  PLATO at the University of Illinois. One of my student jobs was working in a PLATO lab, playing Bugs-n-Drugs [aka Medcenter] while signing people in and out. That game was not good for my hypochondria, but I have awfully fond memories of PLATO.)


Another thing to appreciate about McCulloch's book is how unreactionary it is. She doesn't set up her discussion as "You've heard people say these stupid things about the internet, but here's the TRUTH." (A style of writing that I can be very, very guilty of.) She mostly just makes her case gracefully, based on what the language is doing, rather than reacting to what other people say the language is doing. Rather than 'This, that and the other person say emoji are a new language, but they're not', she just gets on with explaining how emoji fulfil(l) our communicative need to gesture. It's a positive approach that academic linguists will have had trained out of them by the requirements of academic publishing.

This is a bit of a nerdview 'review'. Usually reviews tell you some fun facts from the book they're reviewing, whereas I'm telling you what I've noticed about its information structure. That's because that's what I really look for in books as I prepare to write a new one. In terms of information, in this book you'll learn, among other things:
  • which "internet generation" you belong to and how your language is likely to be different from other generations'.
  • what punctuation communicates in texting/chat and how that differs from formal writing
  • how language change can be traced through studying strong and weak social links and geographic tagging on Twitter
Inevitably, the book is mainly about English, in no small part because English rules the internet. But it does make its way to other languages and cultures—for instance, how Arabic chat users adapted their spelling to the roman alphabet and how emojis are interpreted differently around the world.  In the end, she briefly considers whether space is being made for other languages on the internet.

It's a galloping read and you'll learn all sorts of things.


So, on that happy review, I declare Book Week 2019 FINISHED.


* I love the transatlantic change in subtitles, since it completely illustrates the point of chapter 8 of The Prodigal Tongue: that Americans like to talk about language in terms of rules, and Britons in terms of history/tradition. I've also written a shorter piece about my personal experience of it for Zócalo Public Square.

Research center sits lightly near turtle nesting grounds in Australia

When architect Richard Kirk was tapped to lead the design for the Mon Repos Turtle Centre, he knew that his team at the international architecture firm KIRK would need to tread lightly. The project’s coastal site, located in Bargara, Queensland, is home to one of the most significant seasonal nesting grounds for the loggerhead turtle. To minimize landscape impact, the architects designed the center with a prefabricated glulam timber frame that is wrapped in low-maintenance copper and wood to visually blend the building into the surroundings.[...]

Episode 536 - Raul Sanllehi has trousers

Arsenal have smashed their transfer record for the third time in two years, bringing in Nicolas Pepe from Lille. It's a signing that seemed impossible just a week ago, but here he is. Joining me to talk about Pepe the player is Matt Spiro, and we discuss his arrival, the kind of player he is, and more, as well as William Saliba, Laurent Koscielny and Matteo Guendouzi. Then I'm joined by Clive Palmer to delve into the Pepe deal, what it says about us as a club, the message it sends, the impact he'll have on the squad and the way we plays, and loads more besides, including a defensive discussion.

Betsy DeVos Releases New Title IX Rule Favoring Accused Sexual Assault Perpetrators

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos has issued the final version of a new rule governing how schools must handle allegations of sexual assault and harassment under Title IX, the federal law prohibiting sex discrimination in education. The new 2,033-page regulation increases privileges for students and faculty accused of assault and requires colleges to conduct live hearings to adjudicate allegations, a drastic change from the more survivor-friendly Obama-era policies. “This new regulation requires schools to act in meaningful ways to support survivors of sexual misconduct, without sacrificing important safeguards to ensure a fair and transparent process,” said DeVos in a statement. But women’s rights and survivor advocacy groups have condemned the rule changes since they were first proposed in 2018. They argue that the new rule unfairly favors those accused of assault, reduces schools’ responsibility for addressing harassment, and discourages survivors from coming forward. The regulation gives college students accused of assault the right to have representatives cross-examine their accusers in a live hearing, which advocacy organizations say will discourage survivors from coming forward. The regulation also reduces colleges’ responsibility to investigate allegations, only requiring investigations for complaints made to certain designated employees such as Title IX Coordinators, through a formal process.

10周年Laugh&Peace

2日間に渡る10周年finalのday2終わりました!


観に来てくれたみんな、そしてニコ生で観てくれたみんなありがとう。

ニコ生は視聴満足度が100%だったみたいですね!そんなの初めてだよ!ライブ前にちょこちょこコメントもさせてもらったり、ライブ中、着替えのタイミングで運コメでもコメントさせてもらいました。いつもお世話になっていますが、今回このような企画に携わってくれたドワンゴの皆さんには感謝です。

ふぅ…打ち上げから帰宅して今これを書いているんだけど、何から話せばいいのかな…
今日1日でもいろんなことがありすぎたのに(笑)この10年を振り返ると話題は尽きませんね。
打ち上げの席でも、スタッフがいつから参加した、とかこんなことあったね、あれはあのツアーの時だったね、なんていう話で盛り上がりました。

ライブに来たことがあるみんなはどのライブが1番印象に残ってますか?

俺の頭の中で今1番蘇ってくる記憶は、やはり初ライブ。
といっても、ほとんど覚えてないんだけどね(笑)
あの時はがむしゃらに、無我夢中でとにかくライブをやりきるんだ!という強い想い緊張がMAXだったなぁ。家族が観に来たのも覚えてる。まさか東京に出ていった息子がフリーターを経て音楽、ライブをやることになるなんて、きっと思ってもなかったことでしょう(笑)

実際俺自身がそうだったからね。
出会いって不思議なもので、本当に何がきっかけで自分が変わるのか、なんて自分にもわからないんですよね。

それでも、音楽に出会えたこと…それを通じてみんなに出会えたことは偶然ではなく必然だと思っています。
でも、偶然でも、たまたまでも、出会えたことに意味があるので、大切なのは今繋がっているということ。

MCでも言った言葉だけど、俺には俺の、みんなにはみんなの人生があり、道がある。大樹のように枝分かれしているけど、どこかで交わることがある。だから、ずっと一緒じゃなくてもいい。たまに寄り道してまた出会って、一緒に居られる時は共に笑い合えればいい。
その道の途中で俺は歌い続けているから。
俺は、みんながみんなでいられる場所であり続けるから。

それが俺の決めた道。
俺の歩む道。

この10年、本当にいろいろあった。辛いことも、苦しいことも、逃げ出したくなるときも多々あった。
それ以上に、楽しいこと、嬉しいこと、幸せだと思えることがあった。

俺ね、みんなに笑顔でいてもらいたいんだ。
みんなの笑顔、すっげぇ眩しくて、優しくて、素敵なんだもん。
その笑顔のために歌ってるんだよ俺。
それを見て俺も笑顔になれるんだ。

今日はみんなよく笑って泣いてたね。
俺もだけど(笑)
全然泣くつもりなんてなかったけど、急にいろんなことが走馬灯のように頭を駆け巡ってさ。

でも恥ずかしさはないし、むしろみんなの前だから強がる必要もないのかなって。
自分の言葉を思い出したよ。
泣きたい時は泣けばいい、その倍笑おう、って。

本当にその通り倍、いや、倍以上笑ったよね(笑)

時にはうまく笑えない時もあるよ。そんな時は無理しなくていいし、人に合わせる必要なんてない。
あなたはあなたなんだから。
自分をしっかり持って。

俺がそうだったからさ。


今の俺が笑えるのは、本当にみんながいてくれるから。

何度も何度も同じ言葉だけど、本当にありがとう。

俺たちはひとりじゃないよ。みんな繋がってる。
先のことなんてわからない。でもみんなと一緒ならどんなことも乗り越えられるよ。
こんなに心強いことはない。
これからも共に歩んでいこう。
一歩ずつ、でも確実に前へ。
離れていても、心は共に。






メンバー、スタッフから打ち上げで素敵なプレゼントをいただきました。早速部屋に飾りました。
本当に泣かせにくるわー!泣かなかったけどな!(笑)
でも、こんなにライブが楽しいって思えるのはこの最強のメンバー、スタッフに支えられて共に闘ってるからなんだ。
心からの感謝を。


さぁ、10周年終わって11年目。

まだまだいくぜ?
楽しませるよ?

Zeppの前夜祭と後夜祭、横浜、柏、神戸も発表になったし、今日Zeppではミュージカル楽曲もJOKERの曲もBプロなどのキャラソンも全部やるって言っちゃったからね!

音楽に垣根はない。

やるぜ俺は。

6月が待ち遠しいよ。

楽しみにしててください。

また一味もふた味もちがう加藤和樹をお見せします。

10周年、本当にありがとうございました!
