Here. Have a gargoyle.

Excuse me, I urgently need to go on a walk.

Meet Don Rodrigo (de la Vega de Prades). It was love at first sight and he’s moving in with me.

True for France too. Thank God for brunch!

Lookit! I won a prize for teaching research methods! (Not an « official » prize with a name or competition - a gift from some satisfied students.) Now I can highlight anything (or anyone) anywhere! Except on line. Which is where the whole project started. 🤔

Elect me pope and I will start training for the rematch with JD immediately

A party without a Cajun is just a meeting.

Love is in the air this springtime. First Henry, now this. ☀️💖

Henry has a girlfriend. (Henry also needs a haircut.)

Who could refuse Toulouse?

We went to an Eastern European restaurant to celebrate me getting (some of) my appetite back. Not ready for alcohol yet, but OMG look at what they’re offering on the cocktail menu!!

This.

Saint Patrick’s Day in France. The local pub is decked out in green, white, and gold flags. One of them is even Irish. The other 90% are Indian. 🇮🇪 🇮🇳 #Fail

My neighbour made Jack a pie. And a mysterious C showed up in the baking. Ha!

Waiting time in the Gare de Lyon. Spotted a FNAC. That’s the rest of the month covered. ☀️

I’ve never really understood doughnuts (that aren’t beignets - that’s different). But seeing KrispyKreme has arrived in the Gare de Lyon has made me progress to ambivalent.

My productivity in a nutshell today

Chill the wine, Paris! I’m almost there!!

Happy Mardi Gras ! Laissez les bons temps rouler (by ignoring the rest for a while)…

Zero to 150 in 0,5 seconds. (He got the ball.)

Goals

And yet..

Word

Trying really hard to be a curmudgeon, he still insists he « doesn’t like dogs »…

I think we can just consider today the 36th of January. Will this cold ever end??

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify. The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips. Good job, friends.

Hard agree

a possible solution to the Elon Musk problem

I’ve had love affairs less complicated than trying to change at Châtelet.

On our way to Paree for the weekend to hang with Louis and then a DITA conference (in French, but Jack doesn’t care) on Monday. It’s been ages since the three of us were all in Paris at the same time.

Basic

Vinish gives a very informative and engaging course!

It’s snowing in #NewOrleans and it’s *sticking* Not even 24 hours after the Inauguration, and #MarcoRubio addressing the #StateDepartment and hell IS freezing over! 😳

S’owflakes

And other ideas that are new to me in 2025. Don’t know if I’m ready to manage this one yet though.
