Huh, thank you for the summary! What a strange (but fascinating) premise. Definitely a weird book to have during the first week of COVID shutdowns… All the zombie apocalypse stories also hit rather differently when read during COVID lockdown 😅

Would that be Early Riser by Jasper Fforde? If not, I’m very curious what the book was.

That’s awesome, I didn’t know about that.

How would you rate your coziness level on a scale of 1 to 10?

Thanks for sharing photos of your adorable cats :)

Hmm, that’s a good point. It would have to be a relatively thin carabiner…

While searching for pictures I also found an interesting variant keychain called a “keycase” (picture attached). It doesn’t use any rings. Perhaps that’s the kind of thing you’re looking for?

Would using a small carabiner as a key chain meet your needs? They can be quite stylish and are sturdy by design.

Excellent choice, I wonder if the original Italian would be even better!

He looks very comfy. 🥰

What is your favourite recipe to cook or prepare? (Drinks included)

That’s a good point.

Hmm, that’s a great point. It reminds me of fandom groups where most people are just trying to have fun and enjoy the fan content, but then a vocal group of unpleasant people will also designate themselves part of the fandom and damage its public image.
In that situation, the only thing that really seems to fix the public image of the group is having an authoritative leader (such as a creator of the original work, or a fandom conference organizer) making a public statement like “We do not condone persecution, we support the right to abortion, LGBT+ people are welcome at our fandom conference, etc”.

Tying back to the original topic, maybe the equivalent would be if well-known Christian leaders were to make statements like that?

they’re identifying as a You so if You don’t do something about it then it’s as good as doin it yourself.

That’s an interesting idea. Would you apply this rule evenly across all groups, or only in special cases?

To give an example, the rate of people with Tourette Syndrome is around 0.5% (less than 1 in 200). The rate of people who fake Tourettes is much higher.
Applying your rule, if a person with Tourettes doesn’t speak up against the larger group of people faking Tourettes, is that as bad as them faking Tourettes themselves?

Sketchup is a fairly simple 3D modelling software which I find good for home design/modelling. It has a free version.
