British demons with a penchant for philosophy. She can't do much to help beyond offering to connect him with a good divorce lawyer.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who finds this funny.
[Image ID: Two demons, both with a black-and-red motif, sitting on red velvet stools at a small, circular table. The table boasts a crystal ball, and behind them a fire is burning in a fireplace. The left demon is Trixie Mephistopheles, a brunette female demon with her black wings outstretched. She is leaning on one hand with a look of vague amusement bordering on sympathy. On the right is Crowley from good omens, a red-headed demon with dark sunglasses. He appears to be crying, slumped over the small table with his head down.]
“Vimes and Vetinari exchanged looks. Sometimes Carrot sounded like a civics essay written by a stunned choirboy.”

I've started Master and Commander, and 2 hours in I have the following to report:
They're doing the fastest Enemies to Friends to Shipmate Speedrun.
Each of them infodumping in turn, then talking about music.
They have the following DELIGHTFUL exchange, about Castillan and Catalan (as best as I can remember it):"But they're quite similar? A putain, as they say in French? - Oh non, they're different languages. And a patois, if you please. - Oh ? I'm sure the other word exists, I think I've heard it."
A guy who Jack is talking to for the first time snitches on another by saying that he's gay. Then asks what Jack thinks of this "buggery business".
For the record, Jack is against it, but doesn't like to see a man hang for it. It turns out that Lt Snitch doesn't really have anything concrete, it's more of a vibe-based accusation.
I'm letting all nautical talk gently flow through me without making any impression. I think Maturin is doing the same.
I have some extra audible credits. Would you recommend using them on the Aubrey-Maturin serie?

desperate times and measures and so forth, to be fair, but if the entity living in my eyeballs after getting catapulted there from a magic book who’s familiar with various otherworldly shit that I just found out existed earlier that day said they had a bad feeling about going into a dilapidated house in an isolated clearing, I would not go into that house
Dernier post sur Mélenchon et après j'arrête avec lui mais je voulais juste dire que ce qui me frustre le plus, c'est que je le trouve impeccable sur les questions de la transidentité, clair (il me semble, les personnes concernées me corrigeront) sur l'islamophobie, excellent en débat, bon orateur, courageux face à certaines saloperies, quand Zemmour s'est foutu de sa gueule en disant qu'il était sourd et qu'il a répondu du tac au tac "je suis sourd de naissance. Vous avez un problème avec les handicapés ?", incroyable ! Et en plus, il aime la littérature ! Et il défend la Palestine ! Et il nous a tous donné espoir en 2012 ! Et si j'avais pu voter en 2012, j'aurais voté pour lui (mais j'avais 17 ans).
Son défaut est, comme beaucoup d'hommes, et en particulier des hommes blancs âgés ET EN PARTICULIER (je parle d'expérience) des hommes blancs âgés lettrés, c'est qu'il est têtu et qu'il a trop d'égo et qu'il n'admet pas qu'il ait pu merder. Et je ne pense même pas qu'il soit antisémite, je ne pense même pas que ce soit une stratégie électorale, je pense juste à mon grand-père, qui s'appelle aussi Jean-Luc, un vieux militant communiste, qui n'a jamais admis qu'il pouvait avoir tort, qu'il pouvait s'être trompé au moins une fois dans sa vie et je pense qu'ils ont plus qu'un prénom comme point commun.
I can't believe they went back to the cracked mirror universe and didn't check on Rev, last seen in NASH BODY, or on actual Nash, whose soul they yeeted back without any idea of the consequences.
I've just finished watching Interview with the Vampire and I can't believe Daniel passed up the opportunity to point out how high the Paris Covent would score on the BITE model of cults.
