Watching the Mitfords thing and curious to know if people really said "Do you want to come with?", "I was sat next to him" and "I've always fancied her" in the 1930s. They all sound wrong but I expect someone will be along soon to tell me Shakespeare said all of these things.

We seem to have arrived at a point where I am genuinely hurt if I say something hilarious in a group chat and it doesn't get a smattering of laugh-cry emojis, but I would rather die than use one myself. AITA, i wonder.

According to the Structural Code, the design life of a house (ie how long it must remain fit for purpose) is 50 years. In Spain but also the UK, I looked it up. Sleep well everyone. In your house.

Vaguely relevant to some of today's discourse in that the Montserrat boys' choir sings on the Rosalía album and it's been a whole SCANDAL, though not for the reasons you'd think.
I think this a gift link, LMK if not and you'd like to read it.

Was hanging out the washing on the roof earlier and could hear it playing from three different directions, which was properly stirring.

TIL that chaise longue in Norwegian is sjeselong (pronounced the same), which delights me in the way that 'to knock out' in Portuguese (nocautear, pronounced as you'd hope) does. Is there a term for these? Some sort of cognate?
