Huh. 15 years later, we finally have an answer to the question "Will the Crosstown finish before The Winds of Winter is released?"

@aronow what an awful, petty, vapid comment.

@lothcat hopefully more theatres will be doing it in the next while - it felt really topical given recent news about powerful men abusing their power and positions

Enjoying a night out at the theatre, seeing Sweeney Todd

@human3500 beautiful! The closest I've come is listening to The Tea Party excessively during high school https://open.spotify.com/album/5EqW5JOzRlVOy3EqiR2JOH

#TrivialFriday time! G got eaten by the flash this week, but the question is "Where is Alhambra Palace?" 🙂

3/6 for me - I got G, SN, and SL. How many do you know?

G

Whewabra Palace?

E

Who's Warren Beatty's sister?

H

What river is Pocahontas buried along?

AL

What actress holds the record for the most appearances on the cover of Life?

SN

What's the Fahrenheit equivalent of 100 degrees centigrade?

SL

Who moves first in chess?

I still can’t totally convince myself that “boymom” and “girldad” are things straight surburbanites say and not like extremely niche genders

@minego @hannah @chillicampari not just having those children exclusively, but making that a definitive part of their identity as well

@stephanie but...la queue is feminine? Je ne comprendrai jamais cette langue 😂

Today instead of doing my actual job, I'm attending a mandatory, all-day, in-person seminar about "improving mental health".

Beer me strength.

Having a serious pedagogical issue with my son's new English teacher. She wants them to make 30-slide long presentation decks? Why would you encourage anyone to do that?

A woman wearing a green skirt with antenna and four floppy discs in the shape of butterfly wings text reads""floppy disk fairy" sounds like a particularly outdated slur"

Once again expressing my frustration that "six more weeks of winter" would, in fact, be an early spring.

People spell struggle differently. I was talking with someone this weekend who was complaining about daily life being unaffordable and then pivoted to telling me about the international vacations they're taking this year and next.

Oh no! A trolley is hurtling toward the Epstein files! What ████████████████████?

@jmctee well done!

@EdwinG you're not the only one to do so!

Terry Pratchett on militant decency and justifiable anger

serial ephemera -

Thematically speaking, the most important thing Terry Pratchett taught me was the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the world and its flaws and its injustices and its cruelties and get deeply, intensely angry, and that you can turn that into energy for doing the right thing and making the world a better place. He taught me that the anger itself is not the part I should be fighting. Nobody in my life ever said that before.

@ben what was the translation mistake?
