DENNIS:
I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.

ARTHUR:
Yes.

DENNIS:
But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting.

ARTHUR:
Yes, I see.

DENNIS:
By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,--

ARTHUR:
Be quiet!

DENNIS:
--but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more--

ARTHUR:
Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!

WOMAN:
Order, eh -- who does he think he is?

ARTHUR:
I am your king!

WOMAN:
Well, I didn't vote for you.

ARTHUR:
You don't vote for kings.

WOMAN:
Well, 'ow did you become king then?

ARTHUR:
The Lady of the Lake,
[angels sing]
her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur.
[singing stops]
That is why I am your king!

DENNIS:
Listen -- strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

ARTHUR:
Be quiet!

DENNIS:
Well you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

ARTHUR:
Shut up!

DENNIS:
I mean, if I went around sayin' I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me they'd put me away!

ARTHUR:
Shut up! Will you shut up!

DENNIS:
Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system.

ARTHUR:
Shut up!

DENNIS:
Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed!

ARTHUR:
Bloody peasant!

DENNIS:
Oh, what a give away. Did you here that, did you here that, eh? That's what I'm on about -- did you see him repressing me, you saw it didn't you?

I finally made a super sour loaf! Bread 15B came from a stiff (acetic acid) starter and sat in the fridge for about a week with a bunch of time out of the fridge to age an have its delicious bacteria from just right. I added olives an pecans to it with wheat germ around the outside. The bread is flavorful enough to hold it's own against the olives!

Though I would also share some work projects- the "No 79" is going to some fancy Manhattan development and will be outside, with housings. Should look good- and with 3 bars on the ground floor of this new residential building, I may actually go see my work when it's installed an have a drink :) Big ruby numbers- it WILL be seen.
All that and the "ANCY"- a test for this new Spielberg movie was 1 days work (along with some email sending). Feels good to put in a full days work an be able to share with you all :)

The Real Story Behind ‘Nickel Boys’ and the Brutal Florida Reform School That Inspired the Film

Based on a Colson Whitehead novel, the Oscar-nominated movie dramatizes the story of the Florida School for Boys, which traumatized children as young as 5 for more than a century

Just got out of the movie #Flow and I give it a strong MEOW PURR PURR out of 10.

I also got my first experience with paper straws and oh my god are they awful, who produces such garbage. #Cinemaxx should switch to flint wheat straws (or however they're called).
Next time I bring my own metal straw.
