Oh, yes! I love that pattern - I've knitted it three times... First for a PhD student.. Then for my dean (it made sense at the time) And then for a second PhD student who regretted she wouldn't get one like the previous student...

Half the planet is having a massive fight about how to correctly interpret an Ancient Greek poem but go ahead, close some more humanities departments.

What's making me happy on a Monday evening? A new series on Elizabeth 1, on The Rest is History. Yes. I... may be some time.. ./picks up knitting and exits, well, ok, stays sitting right where she is but still...

Writing book proposals is tedious. That is all.

Excuse me... a tiny Lapwing has toddled into your feed. 🥹

A doctoral thesis for your delectation and delight...

Y'know the whole 'indoctrinated into...' whatever the scare of the day is? It's really, really not easy to indoctrinate adults. Persuade them, perhaps but indoctrinate? Over ride people's wills, implant ideas/beliefs? NOT EASY. Stop already with the scaremongering. www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...

Dear software, Harken is absolutely a word No, I do not want readers to darken back to an idea... or any of the other suggestions. Bah.

Yes but as far as I can see, that would be the end of it - customer support required one to log in, which one couldn't do because.....
