And is it just me? I can't respond on any webpage that has Disqus, instead I have to find the Disqus version of that comments page and respond there. Which is annoying. So mostly I don't.

(Also, Patheos is also b0rked in different ways, and since Patheos blogs use Disqus and I comment frequently at a few of them that means trying to a. read them and then b. respond to them has been a total disaster lately.)

IME, Chrome + Disqus fight. For a while it simply didn't work at all, which while irritating, did stop me from reading the comments on most things, so it was a mixed blessing. The mobile version isn't as bad, but my laptop still doesn't love it.

I follow too many archeology blogs to be surprised about Africans in Tudor England but I have to pick up the Black Tudors book anyway, it seems like it'd be really interesting, and frankly I get tired of hearing about slavery and oppression all the damn time; it's nice to get some history pre-dating that.

The twins are adorable.

I admit that I don't drink green tea+lemon+honey because I expect it to cure anything, I drink it because it's comforting and it's one of the few things I can still taste on the rare occasion I have a cold! =p

I'm very hipster about my conspiracy theorist and Dominionist Christian antipathy; I got raised by that ish, I hated it and had internal red flags for their ever-shifting fandom jargon before anyone else knew to take it seriously ;)
I really wish I'd been wrong about how much of a problem they'd be, though.
