My newsfeed right now is alternating between the SAG awards red carpet and the usual political dynamic. It’s somewhat disconcerting.

Calling yourself king doesn’t make you a king. Being dad's favorite and outliving your three older brothers makes you king.

I am amused that NBC News abbreviates “Los Angeles District Attorney” as “L.A. DA” I should look that up in some style manuals. #stylebook #punctuation

Back in the Olden Times, I used to record movies off the TV onto VHS tape, two films to a cartridge. My favorite tape was labeled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead Again.

I can't recommend Durham's Early Modern English Palaeography course enough! It caters to everyone, whether you have a lot of experience or not. If you want to improve your palaeography skills, then you should take this course.

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋
