Why send one email when you can mess it up twice, and send three instead.
This toot brought to you by Friday.

Sparky is here to do a board replace on our house because… *waves in the direction of non-compliant electrical things*.
Now having replaced the circuit breakers with RCBOs the kitchen circuit is tripping continuously. Unplugging everything didn't help. He's now splitting the circuit and fault finding.
I mean, it's better than finding yesterday that there was some dodgy metering going on as well (though you couldn't tell from our power bill!)

My first ever #digitalbreadcrumbs are a great little spot in Paddington.
Mihbaj is just across the road from the Paddington station. It serves a wonderful middle-eastern fare, and the Shakshuka I had (pictured) was bursting with flavour.
The service was a little chaotic, though well-meaning. It’s a small little spot so I imagine might be hard to find a seat at peak times (2pm on a bank holiday it was easy to get a table downstairs)

I miss Swarm/Foursquare’s ability to leave a trail of breadcrumbs of places I’ve been while traveling and also the ability to see places that my internet friends have been.
It feels like something the fediverse is very much equipped for.
While in wait I was thinking I’d document places I go and want to remember (either for good or bad reasons) with #digitalbreadcrumbs
Feel free to do likewise if you’d like to join me.

CW: Religions, Secularisation and Statistics
Are you enjoying wildly speculating on Advancing #Secularisation as a result of responses to the limited questioning in the 2021 Census? Well, you're wrong, and here's Dr Andrew Harvey, a #ReligiousStudies academic (NOT a Theologian or a Minister of Religion), explaining what's wrong with this overly simplistic approach:

Iinet service really is abysmal nowadays. The internet just went down today and both Deb and I are facing a number of deadlines. Checked with NBN, yep they have scheduled upgrades for the next 10 days. They claim to have told retailers but Iinet never bothered to let us know. Way to lose another customer!
NBN will/may be rolling out full fibre next month so now's a perfect time to swap suppliers. Over 20 years and this is just another sign TPG are running Iinet into the ground.

I'll be attending Western Australia's #Swancon 2023 this coming week. I have two panels, the first on how to produce audiobooks, the second on the "War of the Worlds in Real Time" which I am co-ordinating throughout June.
If anyone's going make sure you introduce yourself.

6) According to Andrew Marvell (Late Disingenuous Discourse, 1678)
DEFINITION = BODY + SOUL, or
DEFINITION = GENUS + DIFFERENCE“Definition always consists, as being a dialectical animal, of a body which is the genus, and a difference, which is the soul of the thing defined.”

Yes, it is this report https://library.wmo.int/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=21930#.Y7Rz_OzP1mq with the press release at https://public.wmo.int/en/media/press-release/weather-related-disasters-increase-over-past-50-years-causing-more-damage-fewer
The analysis is based on data from EM-DAT which has numerous problems. I detail some at https://engelsbergideas.com/essays/when-disaster-strikes meaning that I am cautious about the trends described.
More details on understanding and tabulating disaster deaths are at https://engelsbergideas.com/essays/when-disaster-strikes

"The grave's a fine and private place,
But none, I think, do there embrace."Perhaps #AndrewMarvell was wrong about that.

#garden #AndrewMarvell #poem
How well the skillful gard’ner drew
Of flowers and herbs this dial new;
Where from above the milder sun
Does through a fragrant zodiac run;
And, as it works, th’ industrious bee
Computes its time as well as we.
How could such sweet and wholesome hours
Be reckoned but with herbs and flowers!Andrew Marvell, 'The Garden', Image by Rosie Hopkins

Speaking of links back to Andrew Marvell's poetry--weren't we?--we expose some of our misapprehensions about nature, leisure, and work. And we read Marvell's poem "The Garden" while we think green thoughts about it.

🟡 What’s the Problem with the Dutch? Andrew Marvell, the Trade Wars, Toleration, and the Dutch Republic
“But Marvell’s passage – unlike Dryden’s portrait – also seems sensitive to the social dangers of commerce, its power to level difference. He not only equates dissenting conscience with commerce, but regrets an entire nation where credit (i.e. belief) has been narrowed to a financial term, and conscience functions as a mere bank, where money is in fact not only the coin of this realm, but its only measure of value. What seems at stake here is the dissolutive power of money, socially and spiritually.”
