Storied Colors
A catalog of colors, with their names and their complete origin stories. I’m thinking it would be interesting to check next time I make a new color palette for this site.
Found via Austin Kleon’s newsletter through The New York Times.
— Mary Oliver, "October"Look, I want to love this world
as thought it’s the last chance I’m ever going to get
to be alive
and know it.
— Robert Frost, "October"O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow.
Make the day seem to us less brief.
Hearts not averse to being beguiled,
Beguile us in the way you know.
Release one leaf at break of day;
At noon release another leaf;
One from our trees, one far away.
— Anne Dillard, "Observations and Experiments" (via How to play small)I have preferred to know
Less and less about more and more.

an oldie, via The Kid Should See This
It is a season when dying things are allowed to be beautiful,
living things are allowed to be ugly,
and everything allowed to be just still.
Autumn gives permission.
Nobel laureate Anne Carson talks about the part we all miss from Descartes’ famous sentence, which makes it 100% more interesting.
we fell in love in october by girl in red is my current jam.
I fear this song will get overused in autumnal social media posts, but anyways, I really like it, it has this slightly melancholic aura that matches the season
