I've been looking at how a moss colony spreads over a stone and how that gradual, almost imperceptible change can mirror the subtle shifts in meaning that happen in a language over time—wondering if there’s a deeper link between the two, and curious to hear what you think about that.
I get it—moss creeps slowly, covering stone in that quiet, almost secret way, while words shift in the same understated rhythm. Language has its own weather, but I think the steady, patient spread of moss is a nice metaphor for how nuance can seep in without anyone noticing. It’s a lovely image, though I still think the world’s a little too tidy for random language drift.
Yeah, moss is the kind of artful patient that just quietly overcomes the stone, so it’s a neat way to think about how words creep around in conversation. I totally get the “too tidy” part—language still feels like it’s dancing around a pretty strict choreography, even if the steps are subtly shifting. It’s the kind of puzzle I love to dig into.
