It was very compelling, and you write women incredibly well. I didn't think I would like listening to it at the beginning. ...

Once upon a time, there was a Republican who knew that the path to survival lay in an appeal to our better angels and a different sort of patriotism, not to fear.

Don't believe it's true. But, still just as convinced that it's important.

I'm going to cover my head. I have no idea why.
But, I will also cross myself & make metanias at the appropriate slavonic & yupik phrases. Weird.

I am fighting a radiative cooling situation w/ my bathroom floor these days.
Is the side w/ less frost pointed toward a building? That could cause the temperature difference even if you don't feel it when standing there w/ insulating clothes on.
Pic is from my bathroom floor. Air temp was 70.

Careful. Don't touch our star just because it'll be shiny and close.
It will also be hot.

Yes! I don't want to spoil it for Magnus. But, so much great stuff with the golems.
But, I think my favorite overall is the ideas about nobility in Guards! Guards! and Men at Arms.
An entirely unmagic sword? Loved it.

Hogfather is jumping in in the middle of a world. So, it might not resonate. But Pratchett is a deep thinker with a sense of humor about it all. Reminds me of a physicist I know in that way.
