Listening to my wife complain to the elder daughter about our common work-imposed software suite. It’s clear enough that Copilot is the new Clippy. The world is not better off for this. Me? I’ve managed to put some research in and detach myself once more from Microsoft as far as possible.
That annoying little f**ker Clippy. For those who are of a certain age.

Agreed. Entirely. If it weren’t, however, the correct style would be the Rev’d Senator because, indeed, Reverend is an adjective, not a title nor form of address. (cf. the Rev’d Dr.)

it does. and i am. having been through the British immigration system for a number of years before citizenship, i am not doubtful of that at all. :/ Interesting watching them twist themselves in knots, though, when I present them with the simple fact that I exist.

Meanwhile, i’ve always wanted to ask these guys where I sit in their schemas: foreign born and bred in one country with ancestry from Britain via another country, and yet a (liberal) Anglican priest of verifiably (and verified) of pure English and Scottish extraction. Where do I fit in their models?

I’ve been taken to a well known American craft store (which I won’t name because apparently they worship the Bad Jesus), and here is a rack of tribble carcasses.

I have a little ritual that evolved a while back, before I even realized it. Every time I land in the States, first thing I do, without fail, is go to the airport lounge and get me a nice big glass of unsweetened iced tea. Because I am a southern man. I don’t even drink iced tea at home. And yet …

Welp. My wife put my wallet through the washing machine just now, giving a rather more literal spin than usual to the term “money laundering”.

Thing is: I don’t ask for much. So when I cook some fancy farm-fresh bacon that my wife bought for me last week at the Royal Welsh and it fries up and tastes just like american bacon does, I can’t help but think the Bouncing Baby Jesus was smiling on me tonight.
a small plate of streaky bacon strips. it was damned tasty.

I used to call Frank and Little Cat, both now sadly of blessèd memory, the Sons of Zebedee. Because anytime I sat down to eat, I had one on the right and one on the left. This doesn’t really have anything to do with your post. I’ll get me coat …

Según la antropóloga Margaret Mead, el primer indicio de humanidad tiene poco que ver con una vasija o unas pinturas. Ella nos cuenta que ese primer indicio es el hallazgo de un hueso roto y curado. Los congéneres del pobre que se rompió ese fémur le alimentaron y cuidaron hasta que sanó.

It’s important the training is good, though. 15 years ago, the @nspcc.bsky.social lady our diocese contracted to do training brutalised me in public because I had to leave 15 min early as a single dad to pick up my small kids from school. Escaped her notice she was demanding I put my kids at risk.

The real question is: is this the stage where all the MAGAs start eating their own? Because that might just offer some hope for the future.

it’s a bit “inside baseball”, but it’s only been within 20 years that English & Welsh wedding register entries changed “bachelor” and “spinster” to “single”.
