I have an idea. Why don't you guys tell me in what ways I'm a dork?
Today we went to see Tess formally graduate from the Lucas Centre, which was neat for the Tess aspect but kind of strange to me, otherwise. There was a restrained quality to the atmosphere, and a sense that everyone was speaking and clapping only when they were supposed to, and a little bit listless for it; even the small attempted transgressions seemed tame and rehearsed. A lot of platitudes, and a lot of imposed homogeneity. I'd last been in that same space for Helen's retirement party, so the contrast was very pointed, and kind of surreal.
I am very happy with my country today.
