Grey, rainy day here at Differential Hermeneutics Central. I didn’t run in the chilly rain, so I began my day with a mug of coffee and fruit, then trundled in to Morning Prayer, then home for a second cup and some toast, and to see Margaret off to her travel to Nottingham to lead a session at the branch office of St Mellitus College tomorrow. Meanwhile I’ll keep busy with digital (mostly) paperwork and care for the ladies here. All told, I’m anticipating a quiet day at Enock House.
Oh, by the way: the weekend’s videos from the President of the US make clear the radical difference between him and every other one of his predecessors. He redefines the notion of ‘unfit for office’; as someone remarked on social media, if a shop clerk at Aldi’s had posted an animated video of themself dumping excrement on Aldi’s customers, they would no longer be ‘a shop clerk at Aldi’s’. One can only hope that the monumental scale of the ‘No Kings’ (no shade to HM the King, though I might be persuaded to sympathise with a ‘One Fewer Prince’ lobby) foreshadows a similar turn out at midterm elections, should the current occupant of the White House not try to suppress them. A few impeachments, a few expulsions should clarify the minds of his strategic supporters.
