Owlet of Minerva. Toots at dusk on science, religion and politics. Human avatar does translation, studies religion, enjoys SF and obscure puns, worries about climate change.
My favourite swipe typo of the day: "Norse cancelling headphones". Presumably that means Bluetooth is turned off.

Not holiday planning advice. This toot is distributed without any warrant.
Broke: Go to Amsterdam, miss Van Gogh because the museum is sold out, despair
Woke: Be organized, reserve all Amsterdam tickets well in advance, miss nothing except the thrill of living on the edge
Bespoke: From the comfort of a pancake restaurant, log on to the Van Gogh Museum a few seconds past 5pm when any extra tickets for the next day come online. Triumphantly finish your pancake.
Amsterdam. The tram, nearly empty, slows toward its final stop. The loudspeaker announces in English that passengers shouldn’t try to board it, as: “… This train will be out of surface.”
For a chilling moment before the doors open, I contemplate the topological horror of being trapped in the singularity of a zero-surface tram car.
(And the moral is: Always voice your voiced fricatives, please.)
Update: It was spaghetti all’aglio, olio e peperoncino
After ordering it without the garlic, he picked out alll the chili peppers too
That oil must really be something
Guy next table literally ordered spaghetti all’aglio and asked if they could make it without garlic
The waiter, with iron self-restraint: Yes, it’s possible, but it will be extremely boring
