If you're making Thanksgiving pie -- or feeling out of kilter -- @SimchaFisher has some advice:

This is a very big deal.
The Vatican's Secretariat of State reinstated a laicized priest, accused of abusing minors.
Then the DDF said: "Nope. They can't do that."
The DDF has voided an order from the Vatican Secretariat of State which attempted to reinstate a priest laicized for abuse of minors in Argentina.

One of my cartoons from the previous Private Eye. One I'm rather fond of, as it happens.
I'm happy to also have a couple in the new edition - out today!

Today I would’ve liked to post a picture of my aunt Hannah, who was 88 years old when she was murdered on October 7th. But I don’t think I can bear to see Nazi comments under her kind, smiling face. Not today.
May her memory be a blessing and may no more blood be spilled.

Cardinal Ratzinger: “I would not say… that the Holy Spirit picks out the Pope, because there are too many contrary instances of popes the Holy Spirit would obviously not have picked. I would say that the Spirit does not exactly take control of the affair, but rather like a good educator, as it were, leaves us much space, much freedom, without entirely abandoning us. Thus the Spirit’s role should be understood in a much more elastic sense, not that he dictates the candidate for whom one must vote. Probably the only assurance he offers is that the thing cannot be totally ruined”

Gotta admit JD's ability to code switch from a sociopathic ass who is ambivalent to human suffering on MAGA bro podcasts to a guy who credibly seems like he doesn't want other people to die on the debate stage is a useful political skill that he has deployed with effect

I raised a starling chick during the pandemic and got covid. The bird learned to imitate me coughing. So annoying. I drove all the way to Leicestershire to make sure it would not find home. If you come upon a coughing starling near Loughborough, the name is Betsy.

Occasionally I am reminded of my all time favourite piece of internet: this Reddit post from 6 years ago in which a guy claims he ruined dinner with his girlfriend's parents, after he refused to stop saying he didn't know what a potato was.

There are so many Calvin & Hobbes perverts. There are so many guys whose thing is doing this sort of shit, guys whose whole deal is completing or finishing, narratively consummating Calvin & Hobbes. These people are, make no mistake, insane perverts and criminal maniacs. Animals.

I'm writing today about kennings in Old English. Essentially these are two word-metaphors that were used instead of concrete nouns, and they are exquisite. A ship was a 'wave-horse', the sea was a 'whale-road', the mind was a 'thought-chamber', and the sun was a 'sky-candle'.
