What's everybody reading? Anything good? Or watching?

That's too bad. We need more linguistic sf that isn't just Hard Sapir Whorf Superpowers

Have you ever read M. C. A. Hogarth's Kerishdar series? I can't claim it's about the linguistics, but she constructed a pretty solid conlang for it, and the narrator is a calligrapher, so some of it comes up.

Also where I learned the word "coolth" and (when looking that up) the even better word "spillth", meaning the substance of which a spill is composed.

I've actually just had it recommended to me! Now with two recs, I suppose it's my next read after Consuming Fire.
