Yes, many thanks to Heebie! I still swing by most days, and the topics she picks are usually interesting -- and the ones that aren't for me still get ferocious engagement from others. She's still picking right, keeping the plates spinning.

Yes: immense thanks to heebie.
As tradition demands, I will also derail one comment early.

According to Expressen. Julian Assange's partner, and the mother of his most recent children, is not a South African called Stella Morris, but a Swede, born and brought up in Stockholm, who was once known as "Sara Gonzalez Devant" avant de se fair connaître comme Stella Morris. I have no idea why anyone should conceal such a thing.

The Guardian had an amazingly fawning interview with her in October that mentions the change of name but not the nationality. She says she changed it to protect herself and her family while working with Assange, which sounds daft, so they're obviously meant for each other.

"She was born in Johannesburg... her father, a Swede of Cuban heritage, is an architect; her mother is Spanish".

But she may of course be making that up.

hmmm. Expressen says that her birth was registered in Sweden. All this mystery makes an interesting contrast with the openness of Anna Ardin, the woman he raped in Stockholm, whose memoir of the experience and its aftermath is moving and impressive.

Okay, because I am bored and because everyone is off eating turkey, I just read that interview. What a pair of unsavoury characters.

Re-delurking to say thank you to Heebie, but also to the whole commentariat, you are my imaginary friends in the computer and you keep me company as my part of europe slides into a new stage of this pandemic. The virus is now everywhere, and it feels very different this time. Very jackpot somehow.

That is one of the most underappreciated comedies, imho. Inevitably when I'm on a roadtrip with the kids, I think, "Dad! I'm prairie-doggin' it!"
