Yes, it is almost always written as one word. If there are two -ma / -me suffixes, the meaning changes.
koşma – running
koşmama – not running

Turkish is a really complex language. Sometimes I have to read words slowly to make sure I’ve added all the correct suffixes.
I just wrote “anlamamalarına,” which means something like “for their not understanding.”
Breakdown of the suffixes:
anla → to understand
ma → not
ma → the act of / -ing
lar → they (plural)
ı → their (possessive)
na → to / for

There is a tradition called the Ramadan drummer. During Ramadan, after midnight, drummers walk through neighborhoods to wake people up for sahur. I especially like the ones who have a good sense of rhythm.

Sometimes it is difficult to explain to normative people that I do not reject their norms because I think they are wrong but because I do not see norms as transcendent or ontologically grounded principles. Rather, I understand them as relationships that become temporarily stabilized within specific actor-networks; so, I do not believe in a single, fixed ontological norm.

If we could receive a warning 15 minutes in advance, it would save many lives.

Interesting, really. I downloaded this app last spring after a small earthquake. Since then, it has consistently notified me about small quakes around me about 30 seconds in advance and also alerted me to bigger ones happening around the world. It’s worked pretty precisely so far but they messed up yesterday.
I don’t really think knowing about an earthquake 30 seconds before it happens would actually help much. Still, I kind of like following it.

That never really works for me... I ended up falling asleep at noon. So instead, I sleep a few hours after dawn and make myself wake up around noon.

They hacked the app and people woke up from their sleep to a fake earthquake alarm... brutal...

I guess the distinction is: Jesus is the prophet who lived in the past. Christ is the Messiah, the one who is expected to return at the end of days. Is that correct?

Yeah, western part of Africa is generally referred to as the Maghreb.

This is the House of the Virgin Mary. It is believed that Mary, the mother of Jesus, spent her last days here. It’s very close to my hometown. I first visited it as a child. My brother and I were so little... I remember there was a wishing wall and my brother wished for a computer.

Fun fact: As Muslims, we also believe in Jesus, consider him a prophet and messenger of Allah and hold him in deep respect. He is mentioned in the Quran.

Mashriq (east in Arabic) comes from a root meaning “to shine” or “to rise,” referring to where the sun rises. Maghrib (west in Arabic) refers to where the sun sets. So it also means that from where the sun rises to where it sets, Allah is everywhere.

2026-02-18 03:03:19 CET

To Allah belong the east and the west, so wherever you turn you are facing towards Allah. Surely Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing.

Including the spinoff, I’m dedicating myself to 199 episodes (398 hours) of an Ottoman historical drama. If Cardi B can do it, so can I.

Actually yes, but if I give my daughter that name and she ends up in the same friend group as Beyonce’s daughter, having the same name might cause confusion between them 😔😔😔 (just my daily dose of delusion)

Yes, it literally means “from Rum.” But, during both the Seljuk and Ottoman periods, Anatolia was widely referred to as Rum. So when someone was described as Rumi in those times, it did not necessarily mean they were ethnically Rum/Greek. More commonly, it simply meant a person from Rum, that is from Anatolia.

That’s scary... It must be hallucinations that happen between sleep and wakefulness. They can feel even more realistic than lucid dreams.
Just like you said, I sometimes hear a friend come up to me and start talking. Then when I wake up and ask them about it, I find out nothing like that ever happened.

Exploding head syndrome
Sleep paralysis
Lucid dreaming
Sleepwalking
These are all the sleep-related experiences I’ve had so far, ranked by how weird they felt.
Exploding head syndrome was the strangest. I woke up to the sound of an explosion but it felt like the explosion happened inside my brain. My ears were even ringing afterward.

I can’t sleep. I think it’s because I slept 19 hours yesterday.

In my master’s program, my classmates and I were working on a group assignment about the history of scientific thought. One of us suggested finishing it before mercury retrograde to avoid problems and we all agreed.
