CW: Article: Grïgnyr the Ecordian by Geoff Bottone
I read Grïgnyr the Ecordian, Geoff Bottone's retelling of infamously-terrible fantasy novella The Eye of Argon. Which I hadn't read when I started, so I needed to read that first. Bottone's version is an enormous improvement... and that's an incredible achievement.

Haggis, neeps and tattiesWith a little shallot and whisky 'marmalade'. #BurnsNight belatedly for sundry uninteresting reasons. I can also hugely recommend Dijon mustard on the side, which goes extremely well.

It's a bit tardy, but with so many Burns Suppers still to be had this year, let this whet your whistle for whisky and haggis.
A wee tale of the Bard as an Exciseman, and a reminder he was at heart a radical.#RobertBurns #Burnsnight #burnssupper #history #Scotland #Galloway #France

My take on #BurnsSupper.
Haggis is hard to find in my Canadian province, despite the very high proportion of people here with Scottish origins. Every year I say I'm going to plan ahead and order one, but I'm terrible at planning and every year I end up not making dinner at all.
This year I just forged ahead with a shredded roast beef instead, and it turned out lovely. Pictured here with neaps & tatties and a whisky gravy.

My 2001 cartoon for Burn’s night. Truly a man for all ages. I was surprised to find that Woodie Guthrie was a fan. And also Maya Angelou. I shouldn’t have been. https://stooryduster.co.uk/scottish-word/cuddy/

Grant me, indulgent Heaven, that I may live,
To see the miscreants feel the pains they give;
Deal Freedom’s sacred treasures free as air,
Till Slave and Despot be but things that were.—Robert Burns, “Lines Inscribed in a Lady’s Pocket Almanac”

I posted this over on my personal Scottish account and noticed a statistically significant proportion of #PHP developers liked it. Are we used to mash ups? Reposting link in case there are other hungry devs of Scottish ancestry out there. 😋
