I can't help but wonder if this is also exacerbated by a tradition of western philosophy that seems bent on denying this interiority or analytically redefining it away
Wildflowers, a couple of springs ago, in the churchyard in Buckfastleigh, Devon. This is actually a very spooky spot in winter as it's the resting place of the allegedly Satanic Squire Richard Cabell - inspiration for Arthur Conan Doyle's Baskerville legend - whose corpse is boxed in by a somewhat incongruous structure, a little pagoda-ish, but also not unlike the kind of public toilet you might find in a small British town, which sits on the south side of the church. Do NOT walk around it backwards as the Devil will bite your fingers and Cabell will release his hell hounds. Also, the church has been burned down by Satanists not once but TWICE in the last couple of centuries. (I wrote about all this in more detail in my book 21st-Century Yokel, and a couple of the scarier gravestones inspired bits in my novel Villager.
Wildflowers love dead people.

I wrote this essay last year, and it has just been published. Its publication comes at a moment of barbarism: yesterday, more than 100 children were killed in Iran as a result of a barbaric and unlawful attack by Israel and the United States.

People who have worked on within-families GWAS (@michelnivard.bsky.social?), is there a way to see which phenotypes had GWAS run on them? Are they in GWAS Catalog/summarised in a literature review? I found a lot of papers about the methodology but my sample is too small for GWAS. Thanks!
