Two days after the judge allowed the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger, I've already received emails that my subscription rate is increasing.

If you plan to pick blackberries, hurry! Tomorrow, 29th September, is Michaelmas, the feast of St Michael the Archangel, who cast the Devil from Heaven. Folklore says the Devil fell into a blackberry bush and, in revenge, spits or stamps on its berries each Michaelmas, evermore.

Split image. Left, “Saint Michael and the Dragon”, a medieval illumination by the Master of Sir John Fastolf from a Book of Hours, c.1430–1440, showing the haloed archangel in red and gold armour standing over a black winged dragon (the devil) and piercing it with a lance. Right, a close-up photograph of a bramble laden with blackberries at different stages of ripening, from pale green and pink to glossy black.

My beloved and I were just discussing what crimes we’d commit during the Purge, as you do. I’d break into historic mansions just to see the interiors. I’d leave everything exactly as I found it, and occasionally you'd hear me yell something like, "they have a secret staircase‽”

Paul LePage’s new ad says he’ll “always fight for Maine.” Always. He said Black people “kill Mainers.” He called a state rep a “socialist cocksucker.” Threatened to point a gun “right between his eyes.” He doesn’t fight for Maine. He’s a vicious bigot. Vote for Matt Dunlap. #mepolitics

There's an individual at my client institution who always calls me Ms. Romaine, despite me giving them permission to use my first name. It never feels like they're talking to me. There hasn't been a Ms. Romaine in my family in 78 years, lol. Lotsa dudes in the family tree.

Y'know those key separators for your key chain? It allows you to separate car keys from house keys when your car needs service, for example? I needed a replacement and expected to pay $0.99. It was $7.99! Are they some type of rare modern convenience that only comes from the Strait of Hormuz‽ 🔑

Forbidden lovers Pyramus and Thisbe are sometimes called the original Romeo and Juliet. In Ovid’s tale, a tragic misunderstanding leads to both their deaths under a mulberry tree. Their blood stains its once-white fruit dark red, forever marking their doomed love. #FolkloreSunday

Collage illustrating the story of Pyramus and Thisbe and the black mulberry. Left: ’Pyramus and Thisbe’ (1795) by Austrian painter Andreas Nesselthaler, showing Thisbe grieving over Pyramus beneath the mulberry tree as Cupid flies above. Centre: Jacob Sturm’s botanical illustration of black mulberry (Morus nigra), Plate 39 from ‘Deutschlands Flora in Abbildungen’. Right: two photographs of ripening mulberries on the tree.
