I know it’s a bit of a cliche for losing finalists to warmly celebrate a winner in a talent show, but Bake Off is the one show where you truly believe the emotions.  Crystelle’s face when Giuseppe’s name was announced is the kind of thing that gives you hope for the human race.

Certain statements by the Pope are considered to be infallible (and they are identified as such), not everything he says or does.

In my mid 30 and watched it a lot. But yeah, I doubt very many kids today know about it.

Snape’s a dick. Anyone who revels in making the lives of children miserable doesn’t deserve to be number one. Obviously Lupin is the best DAtDA teacher.

Lupin was a far better teacher than Snape. Whereas Snape lorded his superior knowledge over his students so as to make them feel shitty, Lupin genuinely sought to pass his along in a manner that ensured the best chance of success. You know, like a good teacher.

Yes, Coachella isn’t a vital service and if you don’t want to be safe just fucking miss it.

Fuck outta here with that nonsense.

You want to be in the presence of a large number of other humans? There are certain precautions you get to take, including vaccinating against virulent diseases.

Don’t want to get vaccinated, don’t go. Simple.

>and then keep telling stories about the straight hero who actually stars in the book.

I used to be the caretaker for an apartment block in an old neighbourhood east of the river in my old city. I loved the neighbourhood, even though it was rough and old. The river was literally on our doorstep, and two separate(but equally stupid) families of eagles timeshared a nest right nearby. In short, it was…
