@derekbmiller @desideratasaur Going post-apocalyptic ?

@mixedlinguist Also not the case for me. I was making decent money and got a bump after finishing my PhD.

@matosman Did. Waiting eagerly for the next one!

You probably won’t have heard of him but my younger brother writes a bit too. Here, give him a go…

@RossTuckerNFL This batch sure but pierogies and your ‘wrong’ answers have a lot in common.

Literally my wife’s favorite food yet I bet like 90% of you don’t even know what it is. 🤷‍♂️ #tuckspreads

@derekbmiller We all have to keep fighting the good fight.

@mixedlinguist And maybe stop to ask yourself: “Is what I’m about to write really applicable to the (large? diverse?) group that I’m about to label ‘the X’?”

@mixedlinguist No name but during travel, an experience that matches our stereotypes (exit hotel in Aix, hear accordion, see a girl ride by on a bike wearing a beret and carrying a baguette) reminds us of that scene in Hot Fuzz where they engineer such experiences for tourists.

@llmunro I haven’t but that’s a great idea.

@llmunro LibriVox.org is free, covers classics and other out of copyright (in the US) titles and some of the readers are very good. There are of course commercial services if you’re really committed (like me).

@fcoxx_91 Just noise, Fletch. Your career speaks for itself.

Last I checked I was still employed by the Eagles

@krisjaniskarins Happy Anniversary to Latvia and best wishes to you.

Brīva un demokrātiska valsts nozīmē kopīgi ejamu ceļu, kurā katram ir iespēja veidot to drošāku, saliedētāku un varenāku. Latvijas 104. gadskārtu godināsim ar cēlām domām un drosmīgiem darbiem mūsu valsts un nākamo paaudžu nākotnei! Saules mūžu Latvijai! 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻

@candice_millard Extraordinary text and narration. Congratulations to you both!

@garicgymro Guardian-pathed

Anyone else garden-pathed by this headline?

@mixedlinguist @betsysneller The reviewer seems to overlook the audience’s ability to read critically.

@derekbmiller Rimshot.

@derekbmiller Yep. Bookmarked that line as soon as I heard it. Also the part about the country he imagined moving back to was no longer there, possibly was never real.

@derekbmiller Especially that beautiful moment when Parkinson breaks the 4th wall.

@dialect Love these. Even better when the fact-free writing gives a specific time in the past when things were better and the next case dates from that time and mentions a still earlier time and so on.

This is great 😂

@candice_millard Perfect pic. Autumnal wishes to you and yours!
