Had an intriguing editorial discussion recently: how did people in the past talk about 'minutes' when they didn't have watches or standardised times? How does that affect your thinking? Come down an Elizabethan/Jacobean rabbit hole with me. 1/

🚨FLASH : on a retrouvé une manette de l'âge de pierre, indiquant que nos ancêtres jouaient déjà aux jeux vidéos.

IDK TNY maybe I'll reënter your MOM

if you can’t see the aurora borealis tonight, here is a sewer tunnel which is a wonder in itself.

[email protected], do you know anyone who could take this one in?

COSETTE.

Do bucket list Yuletide offers just not show up in the Signup Summary list? Or have I done something wrong and need to edit my offer?

yeah, headcanon accepted.

Hi yes I ducked in again cuz I have no resolve, but I have thoughts about this. There's an expression: Times change; people don't. Usually what it means is throughout history, people act the way people do. That if you went back to ancient Greece or something, you'd find rebellious teens...

I bought these pants in 18W and they're too big (rise too tall, ass too capacious). They were deep clearance and unreturnable. If I know you I will send them to you for the price of shipping or hand them off in person. The fabric and workmanship are really nice. www.ableclothing.com/products/eri...

I am still employed for now, but I need to step up the intensity of my job search. Anyone looking for an editor, either DC-area or remote?

writing ocs can be tough because you lose your single most important tool, which is the “he would not fucking say that” metric. like girl he might say that idk. up to you ✨👁️👁️✨

"I hear you, Xoanon, I hear you!" from the Fourth Doctor episode "The Face of Evil," whenever I can't immediately turn off an oven timer or an alarm or any annoying beeping thing. (I also break out "Please do not throw hands at me" from "The Robots of Death," but I feel that's less of a deep cut.)

Locals, I have an extra ticket for Mahler at the Kennedy Center Saturday night. Anyone want it?

Right now--deeply hyperfixated on Les Miserables, adaptations thereof, and the French Romantics generally. Also Lego. Perennially happy to answer questions on linguistics; English-language grammar, usage, and editing; and cooking.

I don't know how much I'm planning to use this place, but I'm here now.
