ilomilo used to be billie eilish's favorite computer game ever. there are these 2 little creatures, one is named ilo (pronounced ee-low) and one is named milo (pronounced mee-low). ilo and milo start apart from each other in this anti-gravity world with all these little blocks floating around, and the point of the game is to get them to each other. when they get to each other, they hug.
the idea of the game is losing the person you love, and finding them again. that is what billie eilish's song, ilomilo, is about. it's also about the fear of separation. ilomilo is the eleventh song in billie eilish's new album: WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?
I listened to ilomilo like fifty times in a row last night!!

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
