I couldn’t do that “all of your windows face south and you see a bear. What colour is the bear?” riddle because I assumed it was talking about a flat like yours.

I don’t have any data on this but I imagine confusing hand sanitiser, cillit bang or drain cleaner with period products would be unfortunate at best…

All good points!

After how long will the time between excommunications become smaller than the Planck time and what are the physical implications of such an event?

Maybe the real fool is the archbishops we made along the way…

I don’t really want to trade them. I’m very fond of them.

Can we trade youth clubs? This week I found the group that disappeared creating a Big Art Attack on the toilets’ floor with beads, wool and bananas (mushed).

Sure you may feel like you’re not on top of your life today, but are you “two pairs of shoes” not on top of your life?

“Give the kids a plaster, ask them to write about someone they know who is suffering, and let them stick the plaster somewhere.”

That can’t backfire…

I think I lost an eyebrow…

It’s closer to 3/4 through than half way through.

Just in case that helps.

"we live with the Five Guiding Principles and it works for us" according to the Archbishop of York. Oh really??? I would suggest that the words 'works' and 'us' are both doing some pretty heavy lifting here! For whom does enshrining inequality 'work'?! @watch-notequalyet.bsky.social

In fact, we did a project budget recently and just one million is 7 full years of our absolute dream all bells and whistles project costs.

Oh well, back to seeking out grants and donors.

The beginning of Luke 21 comes to mind…

I’m used to being in the poor parishes in the poor diocese. Hundreds of millions is just a fairy tale amount to me - how can Jesus’ followers celebrate keeping that to themselves?

It’s another very British problem to post something on the internet talking about the UK and for Americans to say you’re wrong because America and the UK are different places.

(Said for humour - it’s an easy mistake to make @937deanscott.bsky.social)

Are you able to share the snippet as a post here or link to it somewhere that isn’t X? I’d be interested to see it but have deleted my account there.

“Oops - I accidentally posted it on substack as well as submitting it to the journal. Butterfingers”

(I’m assuming there’s a very good reason this doesn’t happen but I’m entirely ignorant - what would happen?)
