I just read Uta #Frith's Wikipedia article, and learned at least one fact about her that I hadn't known before. Because Simon #BaronCohen is higher-profile in the media — and yes, possibly also for reasons of unconscious sexism on my part — I had always assumed that he was the leader, and ultimate master authority, of the #mindblindness school of thought. But it turns out that SHE was the advisor and mentor, and he was her student!

Maybe I've been focusing on the wrong person. Apparently instead of a Dark Lord, the #mindblindness faction has a Queen.

I also wonder whether, toward the end of her lengthy career, #Frith is finally becoming less guarded, and letting us know what she really thinks — in that ghastly interview, for example.

LadyFiszi's "Frith and Inlé"

I very much love this represenation of Lord Frith and The Black Rabbit of Inlé done in the style of the symbolic Taijitu.

I'm not sure how accurate the symbolism would actually be, as I've never interpreted the Black Rabbit as a balance force to Frith, but I like it nonetheless. The Black Rabbit is a servant of Frith so it doesn't quite work.

Tomato Seed Processing Workshop

#Frith =Farm
61 Ash Swamp Road
#ScarboroughME

"Come to Frith Farm in Scarborough for an afternoon of learning, community building, and #DirectAction, as we lend our hands to harvesting and processing these sacred seeds.

"Chloe Hettinger is a seed grower for the #PalestineHeirloomSeedLibrary's #SeedProtectorProject, a project rooted in #Battir, #Palestine and the United States.

"She will begin the event by speaking about the importance of preserving #heirloom vegetables, fruits, and herbs, and hold a conversation for folks to explore and share their own inherited #foodways.

"The hand-on portion of the event will include harvesting from a seed crop of heirloom tomatoes, processing the seeds from the fruit, and demonstrating the fermentation process that allows tomato seeds to be saved.

"This event is in partnership with the Palestine Heirloom Seed Library, and is supported by the #RealOrganicProject."
