In Manchester this week a church was demolished by the council. So were the windows. It is very easy to remove stained glass windows. Costs - a cherry picker and two/three people a day or two. Would they demolish a museum with artefacts in place, a gallery with paintings on the wall? #stainedglass

This looks very useful: a new online searchable version of Cappelli's _Dizionario di abbreviature_ reader.contubernalesbooks.com#/paleo/cappe... There is also a section on how to actually read a manuscript, which looks like a very useful teaching/learning tool: reader.contubernalesbooks.com#/paleo

Erm, Tennessee Williams short stories at about 14 - only gay content I could find at my local library (gosh, I’m old!). A *particular* insight into 50s/60s gay male experience - not v. relatable but teen me was obsessed.

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.
