Incredible work re: the scrolls. I can’t wait for see what they say. Also incredible that they aren’t dust. The world is truly amazing.

Glad Paddy is getting rest! We were under cloud cover for weeks and rain rain rain. Had water in the basement for the first time in 13 years and it’s been fun! But the sun has shone for two days and it’s like heaven.

It looks as though the tide is beginning to turn on the trans madness. About time!

I cannot tell you how nerdily excited I am about the scrolls at Herculaneum. The technology will only get better, and the thought of finding so much that we thought lost forever is truly thrilling. And I have deep gratitude towards those visionaries of the 17th century who didn’t throw them out as useless lumps of charcoal.

Btw, I read/listened to Mary Beard’s _Emperor of Rome_ last week and for the most part enjoyed it. I was slightly annoyed at the woke tone that crept through in places, but chalked it up to editorial pressure.

Poor Paddy! My dogs also hate to go out in the rain. Curl up on the sofa with him and listen to Dar Williams’ wonderful song “February,” which always gets me through this time of year.

Kemi Badenoch has been brilliant although it really doesn’t take brilliance to see that transing away the gay has been happening. Kemi has a way of cutting through the BS and stating the obvious. I’m not sure why everyone else has been so blind. I do believe that all of the money behind the trans movement by certain trans billionaires helped to muddy the waters of understanding. My belief is that the trans billionaires poured money into the movement to add numbers to their ranks thereby validating their own lives with the numbers who joined them. Very narcissistic.

Hello Northumberland!

That was a great letter she wrote to MP Nokes. I saved it. Like You said, Michelle, the data is clear. It's a travesty that people don't know what's going on. And only in Scotland to people think biological gender doesn't have to do with medical diagnoses. Hopefully they'll learn.

Enjoyed the other articles, but sorry to "hear" the RSL has gone down the tubes. Good ole FSU. That was amazing about the papyri. And great that Paddy has escaped the mud, at least for now.

TY, Michelle, as always. Hope the writing went well, and some got to Your editor.
