    We saw a 90s cover band called Standard Transmission last night. They were really good! But it reminded me that a) I am old now and b) I was a teenager in the 90s and the audience for 90s alternative music were Gen-Xers who are even older now

    When my dad was a teenager he worked at Mac’s Milk, and one day (while he was talking to my mom on the phone!) a guy came in and robbed him. There was only $10 in the till, and the guy was like “is that all?” And my dad said “yeah” so the guy took the $10 and left.

    I just learned a new word: mécène, a patron of the arts - clearly from the Maecenas, the great Roman patron of literature under Augustus. In French, Maecenas can also become an abstract noun, mécénat.

    Intersecting with other interests, 1240 was also the year the Jews were expelled from Brittany. The Disputation also involved another person who comes up a lot in my work on the crusades and the Kingdom of Jerusalem, noted jerk Eudes of Châteauroux.
