Bonus 92: Xenolinguistics 👽
Someday, we might make contact with intelligent life beyond our planet. In that case, linguists want to be PREPARED. Enter the excitingly named field of Xenolinguistics!
In this bonus episode, Gretchen and Lauren get enthusiastic about how linguists might go about communicating with aliens. Drawing on highlights of the academic book "Xenolinguistics: Towards a Science of Extraterrestrial Language", we talk about how we'd actually go about trying to communicate with aliens. First of all, how can we know that a species is trying to communicate, and how can we convey our intentions in return? Secondly, do we have a shared context: are they on our planet, are we on theirs, or are we trying to decipher some sort of radio waves from afar? Third, what sort of medium are they using: visual, audio, and touch are all used for human languages and have some obvious advantages, but what about smell, electromagnetism, or electric pulses? Fourth, what could we learn about interspecies communication here on Earth from the African Grey Parrot, the prairie dog, and the vervet monkey? And finally, what other practical and ethical considerations do we need to remember based on current linguistic documentation projects? (The aliens may have multiple languages, only some of which are appropriate for outsiders to learn. And there are no spare AA batteries available in orbit around Alpha Centauri.)

To clarify this
Spires can’t really physically say hi, and don’t really have an external language other than low rumbles and whistles that they can make by contracting their shells and pushing out air.
The grimmos can and will help with quick external communication as they can more or less understand the rumbles due to a chemical in their brain that was given to them via a special jelly the spires will make for the babies to help communication

The alien message, decoded by Ken Chaffin and daughter Keli, is not static but is in motion as the white dots are arranged into the five amino acids. Ken Chaffin
Ken Chaffin and daughter Keli, who worked on decoding the message for nearly a year, uncovered the answer in June, the European Space Agency announced on October 22. Doing so required thousands of hours experimenting with various ideas and running mathematical simulations on a computer, the Chaffins told CNN.

everything that soft mras are telling women to do to “deradicalize” men can be done more effectively and safely by male allies.

LPS Custom #8: Centipede Alien Cat Inspired by the album cover for Stranded by Red Vox.
Done for the alien toy custom collaboration hosted by dolly_lolly_playtime on Instagram! ( #aliencustom23 )
This was one of my most complex repaints and sculpts yet! The design is inspired off of one of my favorite space themed songs, Stranded by Red Vox. Since the collab was alien themed, I thought it would be perfect to incorporate it as a motif. I also thought centipedes would help give the main design a unique look. (aaannnd the cat portion of the design is just because I only have shorthair bases left lol.)
I've actually made a "making-of" video for this custom this time! you can view the video below! https://youtu.be/sTc3RJpIFBQ

After watching Alien: Romulus, I felt like updating the part of my island in Animal Crossing dedicated to the ALIEN franchise.
Dream Address: 7125-6003-7296
BONUS DLC: 👇
Maybe some of you will enjoy having these posters of Rain & Andy. Use the Nintendo Switch mobile phone app to scan the QR Codes seen below. And then download the files in the game's "Custom Designs" app by pressing the minus button ( - ).
Extra pics: Outside the building you can see two statues that were seen in Alien: Covenant (David by Michelangelo) and in Alien: Romulus (the Capitoline Wolf).
