I agree with both! When did she become so โฆ so โฆ helicopter-ish? He doesnโt need her to go to his therapy appt. He already said he would walk; it sounds like she wants to go in with him, make sure he says the โrightโ things. And walking is good - a good displacement activity to let off steam.

Unfortunately, in ๐บ๐ธ itโs โjust another Tuesdayโ, and will probably used by 2A gun nuts as โproofโ that gun controls donโt work. (Mind you, those same gun nuts arenโt using their guns to defend against a tyrannical govt, so they kinda ceded their ground.) 2/3

I am struck by the outpouring of condolences, globally and locally, for #TumblerRidge. It shows how unusual this is recognized to be in Canada.
I hear that the local RCMP entered the school quickly (unlike #Uvalde). Bravo and thank you. 1/3

The rot set in with that female vicar (/sarcasm, eyeroll). And the current one rides a motorbike (gasp) and is married to a heathen (swoon).
Someone was told to provide a counterpoint to all the positive coverage last month. Pearls need to be clutched about something, and itโs #TheArchers turn

3/3 How will George screw up this time? He has form in screw-ups: he shows maturity/kindness/niceness one day, then does something stupid/selfish/misguided (viz framing Alice, or when he thinks heโs being helpful, e.g. post-box fire) the next. Maybe ยฃ for the wedding will trigger it. #TheArchers

My employerโs CyberSecurity team sent out a red warning notice about this a couple days ago, before I heard anything about it online or on the radio. I finally heard a piece about it on NPR today, and I thought, โoh, so thatโs what it is โฆ thatโs weird โฆ that is scary shitโฆ thatโs No. Just. No.โ

Amberโs maths is not good: itโs less than six weeks since Christmas Eve, not โum, about 8 weeksโ.

Just a few weeks ago Amazon was saying that AI wouldnโt take any jobs, they would gradually downsize through attrition. Layoffs โ attrition.
Of course, these 30K layoffs *might* not be attributable to AI, but I canโt see them laying off that many warehouse workers without it.

I learnt in the 1960s that only hydrofluoric acid can dissolve gold. (I donโt know about newer compounds.)
Industrial applications: gold shields the windows of the RBC tower in Toronto from the sun (or so we were told when it was built), as are astronautsโ visors. And of course it rarely depreciates

@mattgalloway.bsky.social, you asked your guest *why* is gold so desirable. The simple answer is that it is almost indestructible, and the densest metal. Small amounts (by volume) are easily transported, hence its predominance throughout history in adornments.

I think Amber got knocked up in Ireland, and seduced George on Christmas to try to cover. Sheโll claim itโs his, G will think itโs Bradโs, and 10 years from now some Paddy will show up with incontrovertible proof of paternity. #TheArchers
I also think Harry was Henryโs father.
