To me there’s nothing powerful or subversive about this lexicon: it smacks more of a (literally) infantile fixation. Which makes it difficult to see why women would want to reclaim it.

Webfonts were great when most computers only had a handful of good fonts pre-installed. Thanks to font creation and buying by Apple, Microsoft, Google, and other folks, most computers have good—no, great—fonts installed, and they’re a great option if you want to not load a separate font.

“Tell me something that brings you comfort.”

“Something that brings me comfort?” Robby shot back, his tone mocking the frivolity of it, because he never was one to just follow directions.

“Yes,” Gene said, eternally unfazed. “It can be the smallest thing, whatever comes to mind.”

What came to mind was: Pens games, the trails at Frick Park, the rare book collection in the Oliver Room at Carnegie Main, a cortado at Sage Caffe. But what he said was: “Jack.”

…wait. Shit.

This is a video lecture on chapter 17, titled “Values in a Scientific World”, of Russ Shafer-Landau’s book, ‘Whatever Happened to Good and Evil?’ The argument that this chapter considers is one that claims that if one follow’s Occam’s Razor, then one ought to reject the reality of objective moral facts or laws. This is an argument for moral skepticism, and Shafer-Landau offers several responses to it and in defense of moral objectivism. In the end, he claims that this use of occam’s razor defeats itself. This lecture is part of an introductory level philosophy course, Introduction to Ethics.

Occam’s razor applies only to descriptive facts, not normative ones.

This is a video lecture about the different between descriptive claims or laws, on the one hand, and normative claims or laws, on the other. I also explain three different varieties of normativity: the moral, the prudential, and the epistemic. This video was originally produced for use in an introductory level philosophy course, Introduction to Ethics. But it is a stand-alone explanation, so it can be used in any other context.
