Guadalajara, Spain, at totality. People cheered and clapped when the sun vanished, and again when it reappeared. It set before the moon’s shadow was off of it. ¡Te veré mañana! called one man: I’ll see you tomorrow. Verdad.

A total eclipse of the sun, in dark skies above dark trees.

The Pylon People – AKA the Children of The Hum – were labelled as everything from 'a very English apocalypse cult' to 'filthy hippies unable to keep still'. Few understood their continuous pilgrimage, their strange navigations directed by the humming lines above. – Dr. M. Benn

This right here is the Protestant/Catholic divide. Or the presbyterian/episcopal one (note lowercase). Schism 2026 was all passive-aggressive letters leading to a long ceremony where only people in the know could distinguish the spicy bit. Meanwhile, the Presbyterians just…say it? Coool.

"the January 6th of Catholicism" is such a perfect description the same "bravo to us, the lone heroes standing bravely against woke oppression" - except that this time there were permanent and unambiguous consequences, including dire warnings to would-be imitators, in place by the next business day

Well, I watched the consecration-shaped event while avoiding thinking about my upcoming travel (I get anxious). Both SSPX and the Pope have been explicit that Vatican 2 is the hard breakpoint. I don’t see how schism can be avoided.

The poster doesn’t want quote-reposts, but see my last repost for an explanation of why many Europeans have heat-only heat pumps. Stop thinking an entire continent are idiots. You hate it when others do it about you.

In the UK heat pumps are typically used to replace gas boilers, a like for like replacement. This means they hook up to the existing hot water & wet heating system - water filled radiators. Running cold water through those causes condensation and damp, so that feature isn't included on those models

Now that the discourse has died down, and my birding has lessened, I want to talk about lists in rpgs. I like what both sides of the debate make. So, like everything else, "good" isn't about which side you choose but how you execute the idea. If you choose to use lists, use them well.

X banned the word “cis” while permitting transphobia and the Guardian headline was pretty much: “Behold the field in which I grow my fucks. Lay thine eyes upon it and see that it is barren.” Which is why solidarity is the answer. No hate is acceptable. This racism stinks. Oh, and this:

Great article. Neither blind boosterism nor pooh-poohing of partial solutions. A portrait of a pragmatic effort that has evolved and improved since its first proposal. Unsurprised that it’s a Dutch guy. Pragmatism, incrementalism, and honestly listening to criticism are part of the culture.
