  1. I have another online league game shortly, so time to make a pot of .

    Update: I lost, I can only assume that I didn't perform the Tea Ritual quite correctly and that the gods are therefore angry. It's definitely not because I played G17 instead of F10 in the middle game.

  7. → How Far Can “Buy Canadian” Really Go?

    “What #sacrifices are we willing to make to support our #values? How can we maintain long-term pressure without burning out or reverting to old #shopping habits and items? How do we do this without blaming those who can’t #participate?

    Perhaps most importantly, how can we #collectively #build a more self-reliant and #resilient #economy that aligns with our principles and stands strong against external #threats?”

  12. When you travel to that battlefield & visit other #WWII memorials & cemeteries in #Europe you will see what great care is taken to ensure the memories of those #sacrifices are honored w/daily maintenance & #respect. This is likely the last big #DDay celebration featuring WWII #veterans who are almost all centenarians…. Some are traveling to the ceremonies & will be honored by all the dignitaries like #POTUS Joe #Biden, British PM Rishi #Sunak, Canadian PM #Trudeau & #KingCharlesII of Britain.

  13. Something I would love to know more about are the #ElusinianMysteries. But thanks to the cult's secrecy (and #Christianity), we may never know all the details...

    Elusinian Mysteries

    There were two Eleusinian rites – the Lesser One, and the Greater One. While the details of these rites were a carefully guarded secret, what is known is that the Greater Rite took place over many days, involved #music and #dancing, #sacrifices of grain and a bull, #ritual purification in a river, and the consumption of a #SacredBeverage that was believed to be #hallucinogenic.
    The beverage, known as #kykeon, was made from #barley, #pennyroyal, and other ingredients.

    It is analogous to the Sacred #Soma / #Homa beverage of the #IndoIranians. While the Cult of #Eleusius was closed down by the #Christian #RomanEmporers, elements of the cult “survived in the Greek countryside,” into the rites of “#SaintDemetrius of #Thessalonki.”

  18. I guess my daughter could hold off going to college for a year if the bidding gets out of hand.

  19. Rather than continue making #sacrifices to serve our #nation, some might leave uniformed #service for other opportunities, robbing the #DOD of talent cultivated over decades….

    Throughout our careers in #NationalSecurity, we have deeply valued the #bipartisan support shown for our #ServiceMembers & their #families. But rather than seeking a resolution…, #Tuberville has suggested he is going to further escalate this confrontation by launching baseless #political attacks against these men & women.

  20. that feeling when you're carrying the beer home from the store

    and there's a cloudburst

    and you can't run 'cuz you're carrying the beer home from the store

  21. Last night at hockey game, friend told me her sibling, an #ER doc at area major medical center, is being made to work while sick w #COVID. Whole family down w it. And surgeon had to come in & operate w COVID.

    #Healthcare workers make a lot of #sacrifices. #Burnout #Vermont

  22. To all the #americans here who celebrate #thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving! I wish you the best day with your family.

    To any #nativeamericans here on #mastodon, I want to wish you all a great #NativeAmericanHeritageDay. As a person of European descent, I will be celebrating the day by teaching my #children the #sacrifices native americans made and how this great nation would not have existed if it wasn't for the kindness shown to the settlers. Nothing will ever blot out the stain of how you were treated and the best I can do is make sure the sacrifice and the true importance is never forgotten in my family. :)

  23. @mmasnick I depend on my #ScreenReaders (mostly #Siri), but I don't think that I've ever heard her indicate whether a word was accented by any means other than those influenced by punctuation. Of course settings, features, and tech would all be contributing factors.

    I'd pay for a #reader that is able to reliably read only the main body and not the fluff, but then again someone might confuse #accessibility with a restriction of #capitalism, so #sacrifices are made.
