At turns technical research or star-eyed wonder or wholly deranged, I feel like a world has been opened up to me. I like the idea that this book is a little like a wasp itself in that it needs more than a quick glance and feels a little dangerous. May we never forget just how much dumber bees are than wasps, and just how close we came to kissing Aristotle.

She’s going to kiss Aristotle, isn’t she. She’s going to kiss Aristotle, and she’s going to make me read it. How have we come to this

Aristotle is absolutely losing his mind over how wasps maintain hive harmony

Like, I just do not know what to do with this! Sumner’s footnote here explains that she isn’t a historian, so we should give some latitude for artistic license. I feel like we could get to the science without the dinner visit! But it’s at least compelling. I just don’t know what it’s compelling me to do

We’re back to scientist fanfic, as Sumner imagines a dinner with Aristotle, primarily to disabuse him of his ideas about how bees are cooler than wasps.

We are what we do repeatedly
This quote is often attributed to Aristotle. It highlights the importance of our actions and habits in shaping who we become. Our daily routines, behaviors, and choices define our character. Our habits contribute to our personal growth and development. We should utilize the power of repetition. Then we can strive to engage in positive and constructive actions.

A messy attempt to squeeze those aspects of Aristotle's philosophy that played a role in the history of physics into a blog post #HistoryOfPhysics #Aristotle
