I'll subsidize your expenses how! I'll take the explicitly British as long as I don't have to live there.

Place d'Italie is full of chinks/gooks/good markets and restaurants. I miss the cheap little Vietnamese places in Paris. :(
American tourists but only by a small fraction, though the better kind of British tourist is lovely. When I missed speaking English, I hung out with the Oirish 'cause they weren't as stupid and arrogant as the Americans nor as spiteful and unhappy as the English.

My brother's best friend is suffering from severe Catholic guilt because, when they were both 17, they went busking in Paris and he stole a candle from Notre Dame as a present for his mother. In a very real sense, it was that candle started this fire.

In a quick scroll through facebook this a.m. I had a great time unfollowing/unfriending ppl posting variations of the "how dare you be sad about a RELIGIOUS BUILDING when there is so much suffering in the world happening to PEOPLE" strawman. Like jfc the ashes arent even cool yet.

haha yes one of my kids' teachers took this line today in class.
I'm gonna go check out the cathedral tomorrow afternoon. my oldest visited the scene today (well, from a distance, since things are going to be blocked off for a while). she said it...looked bad

I just went there. A lot of people, obviously, especially since some parts are closed.Frankly, from the front it’s as if nothing happened and from the other sides, if you try to think the roof is under construction... or is flat (!) well, the rest looks in good shape.We’ve been lucky in a way.

Sorry, didn’t mean to shit on an uplifting Tweet. I thought it was kinda funny trying pawn those slender delicate trees off as hearty oaks.
― Je55e, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 00:09 (four years ago) link
I walked by the cathedral a little bit ago and it looks less different than I’d expected. Just missing the roof really. It might look weirder from the back but I was too lazy to go that far.
― L'assie (Euler), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 13:06 (four years ago) link
Which is to say: it doesn’t look burned.
lol yes i shd probably have double-checked as i already know i am a massive nitwit when it comes to identifying trees (lol my dad was a professional botanist, i just left such tasks to him) and i even very briefly paused to think "are those oaks? versailles oaks it says here legit i guess" *MASH SUBMIT BUTTON*
the long-game prepping of trees for use in buildings *is* something (some) architects are well aware of so it's not entirely implausible
