It's good this clocks going forward thing. It allows us to label six months of the year as "British summer time", which from a meteorological standpoint is absolutely unthinkable #clocksgoforward #BritishSummerTime

Academics! In CVs, letters, etc., replace: "my teaching" (bland, bullet-pointed learning objectives) with "my teachings" (wisdom, cosmologies, transcendent knowledge) You will surely get a better title than "distinguished professor", perhaps "sapient" or "eminent professor".
