The Two Monks Illuminate Some Manuscripts
MONK #1: I thought that — in matters of religion, at least — sometimes we manage to surprise birds, and sometimes birds manage to surprise us
MONK #2: That’s very true
MONK #1: I thought so!
MONK #2: And well put

I've never been a fan of men saying they've never been a fan of The Beatles. I came up with the bit first, they should get their own hot takes smh...
More men need to tell us they've never been a fan of The Beatles. It shows an independence of thought but also profound intellectual insight; a refusal to run with the herd. I especially like to see it in response to someone expressing their love of the group. It's outspoken, contrary and brave.

There have been two economic charts going semi-viral— or at least what counts as viral for ABS statistics—in the past couple of weeks.
Both claim to show a dramatic fall in living standards in Victoria and Australia. Both are wrong.

*Raising an eyebrow as I move my mouse over the Excel icon*
I have a spreadsheet which tracks time spent having a poo at work each year against my hourly rate for that year. In my 22 year career I've been paid approx. £21450 for shitting. Significantly more if I adjust for inflation, which is on my to do list.

Horror video game protagonists coming across ammo early in the game before scary stuff has happened:
“Huh, just some ammo lying around in the only kitchen drawer I can open. Well, that’s not ominous. I don’t even have a gun but I guess I’ll put it in my pocket for noooooo reason.”

I’ve been told I’m releasing more gas too!!
The latest greenhouse gas emissions figures show Australia emits more gas now than when the government was elected.
But the govt wants us to believe we are "on target" to achieve 43% cuts below 2005 levels by 2030.
Enough with the spin: we need to stop approving new coal & gas mines *now*.

🧵: medieval literature in English
the wild thing about the medieval period is its breadth: maybe 700 to mid-1500s from early to late--imagine if someone asked, what books are cool from 1400 to 2000? it's a lot of books
so very quickly you get into sub-specialities /1

They’re clearly running on daylight savings, check their switch.
Why do children always choose to wake at 5:30 instead of 6:30.
