As a theater kid who was not yet a film nerd, all I knew was that I *must* see Shakespeare in Love (as my theater teacher insisted) and I spent the whole time with a stupid grin on my face from how much I was enjoying and only when this credit appeared did I realize (and say aloud) "ah, that's why."

Leaving aside, for just a moment, that "my husband doesn't eat mayonnaise" is in the running for Weirdest Flex of All Time (even in our era of increasingly weird flexes), she said her husband does WHAT?!
Nice try, but I am absolutely not listening to Katie Miller's podcast for more context on this.

![Canon 964. §1 The proper place for hearing sacramental confessions is a church or oratory.
§2 As far as the confessional is concerned, norms are to be issued by the Episcopal
Conference, with the proviso however that confessionals, which the faithful who so wish may freely use, are located in an open place, and fitted with a fixed grille between the penitent and the confessor.
[NB see Authentic Interpretation of canon 964 §2, 7.VII.1998]
§3 Except for a just reason, confessions are not to be heard elsewhere than in a confessional.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sbbklyrrb5xfb43mfhypi2f7/bafkreifr4aazgmdjxrqa2xqbiynt7xopzavhydo5dl3nnjybrjlnsb6eqe@jpeg)

this is like a parody thing that someone made up to mock bloated college administrations and yet is real! (I’m sure they do good stuff, but reading their website I’m not 100% clear on what it is.)

I remember being very proud of having acclimated to living in the tropics last year, but wondered openly how I would fare coming back to Boston.

Every city deserves to have a mayor who loves the city. It's weird how rare that is. Apart from all the wonky coalition building stuff people can work backwards to explain how he won, the impressive rise was because people were attracted to a genuine sense of "this guy actually knows and likes NYC."

I just really like the trees in my little Jesuit community, y’all

My first thought was to set up the timelapse camera out of this window, but it’s in a bathroom so that would have been both weird and humid… would have been nice to also get the tree behind it tho. Alas!

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
Her hardest hue to hold.

But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,

Nothing gold can stay.
