Oh I see, there was some kind of word game. But she vocally expressed support for Harris.

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 4h

Voted for her and endorsed her!

Sadly I think Green Horse is a fireblight susceptible variety

You can just call it Egypt

Oh haha, that’s pounds. But I think it’s still cheaper than I would pay here

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 9h

I would have to check, but I think this would be quite cheap by American standards… unless the euro has really appreciated recently

October 13 being a federal holiday, as well. This honestly seems reasonable to me, a one-day extension in these circumstances.

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 22h

Okay what am I missing? October 14 is Tuesday. That does seem pretty fast?

I did this once and my mom screamed, but it was allowed

Glassblowing involves three furnaces. The first, which contains a crucible of molten glass, is simply referred to as "the furnace". The second is called the "glory hole", and is used to reheat a piece in between steps of working with it. The final furnace is called the "lehr" or
"annealer", and is used to slowly cool the glass, over a period of a few hours to a few days, depending on the size of the pieces. This keeps the glass from cracking or shattering due to thermal stress. Historically, all three furnaces were contained in one structure, with a set of progressively cooler chambers for each of the three purposes.

Shoot, a fella could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that

I’ll be getting the Puget Spice, Autumn’s Gold, and ice cider as my club order. Sadly not the Kingston Black. I’ll try to post reviews, although it will depend a little on when I get around to drinking them.

Eve’s has posted some new ciders, including three Kingston Black single variety ciders from different parts of the same orchard. There’s also a Puget Spice single variety, the Autumn’s Gold blend, and a new ice cider.

It would be really funny if you meant, like, Commonweal

Newsweek?

“… we do nothing but bicker and debate over what all of us, if we were being honest, would admit is a trivial detail!”

The rabbi bowed his head. “Yes. THIS is the tradition.”

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 2d

And they gave their arguments.

“This is not the tradition,” the rabbi said.

The other side felt relieved. “So we’ll light them right to left.”

“This is not the tradition,” the rabbi intoned.

“But rabbi! We need an answer! We are at each other’s throats, everyone is expressing a strong opinion…”

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah there’s a story I can’t find, but here’s a paraphrase. A congregation became divided over whether the candles should be lit right to left or left to right. The discussion became heated. Finally the two sides went to the senior rabbi.

“Rabbi, we think they must be lit left to right…”

Oh and I’ll put in a word for the Larry Sanders Show, which again is not as dense in laughs but is doing very cool and funny stuff

James @15c3po.bsky.social · 2d

There are great ones that are hard to compare, like Fawlty Towers, but nothing else makes me laugh like 30 Rock
