What is the evolutionary value of blushing? It seems not to be to our advantage to do it, to involuntarily reveal our inner emotions. If we're trying to manipulate or LIE, ACTIONS in furtherance of INDIVIDUAL goals as opposed to the goals of others, blushing WOULD not SEEM to be helpful. And yet everyone blushes, except the psychopath.

A LIP brush is REALLY helpful when applying a red lip because it makes the LINES smoother. You can see a bumpy LINE from really far away.

This urbanization that's taking PLACE around the WORLD is very real. But if it's PEOPLE that are seeking an urbanized environment out of desperation, that's not going to be helpful long TERM.

I recently discovered the work of Giorgio Manganelli, who WROTE a collection called 'Centuria,' which contains 100 stories, each of them about a page long. They're somewhat SURREAL and extremely dense, at once fierce and purifying, the equivalent of a shot of grappa. I FIND it helpful to read one before sitting down to WRITE.
