Is there actually any word/prefix that fits in this sequence, to denote the midpoint between the two extremes #Micro and #Macro?
What seems more natural than, say, semi-micro / semi-macro?
#Language #Linguistics #Grammar #Words #Communication #Writing
What would you generally call #wine made from pink #grapes using skin #maceration?
It's not really orange/amber, red, or rosé, and I'm guessing if it's not #PinotGrigio then it's not really ramato either? Erm, maybe ramato sbagliato?!
If there is a term, does it change from country to country?
I'm generally not a fan of growing "international varieties" in #Italy when Italy has so many #indigenous #vinifera #wine #grape varieties ... but it's hard to look at this map of the #NorthernRhone relative to #Piedmont and the #AostaValley and NOT wonder about the #CoolClimate — while it lasts, anyway — possibilities for just one international grape exception in particular ...
@drewharwell I am curious what made the bird site the choice for so many mainstream #journalists over the years, rather than other social media sites like Facebook
What do you think would be the best tactic for #journalism on Mastodon—for each org to start & manage its own instance, each org to support a new centralized, verified journo-only instance, each individual to just join to a quasi-official/branded catchall instance like this one, or each individual to just join any random instance?
Accidentally discovered this 1989 photo series of a keeper of the #LaJument #lighthouse in #Brittany nearly killed by a huge wave, when he mistook the photographer's helicopter for a rescue helicopter and opened the lower door of the lighthouse, unaware that a massive wave was crashing against the opposite side of the structure at that moment

Vegan wine lovers may want to read this piece I wrote for Pix / The Drop which explores the issues.
Isn't wine just grapes? Well, no, it's complicated.
