I have a massive word collection on Pinterest. Going through this list was like saying hello to my friends! I have book nooks but sadly no book fort…one day I’ll gather all my books from their nooks and create the fort of my dreams!

That was absolutely wonderful never heard of any of those words before and yet they describe so many things/feelings I am familiar with. I am going to treasure this and probably write the whole thing out long hand. Thank you, thank you, thank you, oh yeah and also gonna build a proper book fort, I have been shilly-shallying, no more my friend.

Awesome meme drop Demi!

Thank you! 💖 I am a total logophile, hopefully won’t become a logomaniac. 🤪

I actually have a collection of dictionaries in my library. They go back through time, and I look up a particular word and see how the definition changes. I need a book fort!!! I’d never leave. 😁

The wikipedia entry on "drapetomania" is also very interesting. It was a "mental illness" common among enslaved persons in the 19th Century who apparently needed to be diagnosed. I've had it all my life.

Excellent! I am someone who in days past has read the dictionary. Like read it, I can spend hours lost looking up word after wonderful word. I've met one or two other here who are like that. I wonder what @Grant Snider would do with these...

Is there a word for a person who believes in life? I believe the driving force of life is life itself and we’re living it’s current form. I believe we gather information through our experience which is downloaded when we return to source which is used to evolve future life forms. I’ve been looking for a word to explain what I believe 🤔
