How many days will finish up the year, / How many years a mortal man may live / When this is known, then to divide the times / So minutes, hours, days, months, and years / Pass'd over to the end they were created / Would bring white hairs unto a quiet grave (Henry 6 P3). #ShakespeareSunday

Me: I really don't want to work today

HR: But we waited until the last minute to send you the files for merit raises... and your team will be pissed if you don't get them back to us today

Me: 🏳️I surrender. You have held my team hostage to ensure that I lose an additional 8 hours of vacation time

Blow, blow, thou winter wind
Thou art not so unkind
As man’s ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm'd;

At my abuses reckon up their own:
I may be straight though they themselves be bevel;
By their rank thoughts my deeds must not be shown,
Unless this general evil they maintain:
All men are bad and in their badness reign.

And spur my dull revenge!

Suspicion all our lives shall be stuck full of eyes;
For treason is but trusted like the fox,
Who, ne'er so tame, so cherish'd and lock'd up,
Will have a wild trick of his ancestors. Henry V A4

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism.

I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought,
And with old woes new wail my dear time's waste

And purest faith unhappily forsworn,
And gilded honour shamefully misplac'd,
And maiden virtue rudely strumpeted,
And right perfection wrongfully disgrac'd,

I can add colours to the chameleon,
Change shapes with Proteus for advantages,
And set the murderous Machiavel to school.
Can I do this, and cannot get a crown?

C Suite Exec: Eng need to step up and help cover Procurement Manager who left. Need someone who likes to talk to people, is out going, and knows how to negotiate.

With odd old ends stol'n out of holy writ;
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.” Richard III #ShakespeareSunday

Answer me tomorrow,
Or, by the affection that now guides me most,
I’ll prove a tyrant to him. As for you,
Say what you can: my false o’erweighs your true.

But dead-cold winter must inhabit here still.

Would in so just a business shut his bosom

I have been studying how I may compare
This prison where I live unto the world:
And for because the world is populous
And here is not a creature but myself,
I cannot do it; yet I'll hammer it out. Richard ii
