Aaaw, no, I've kinda dropped off social media. Is there anything good happening on the blue sky?

Makes sense. No one wants to think their ancestry has people (or even just one) who'd bicker over buttons and bicycles

I'm assuming they chose those letters in recognition of Anabaptism 500.

Ashamed at how long it took me to find "martyr" in today's NYT Spelling Bee.

It was a very different sort of film: Robin Hood argues with the rich about economic justice instead of using violence to steal from them; his followers sing hymns in between arguments; and they keep schisming into merry sub-bands

What a fiasco it was. Right after that, Canadian Tire showed up and claimed to already have bought it.

They have promised to stock Mennonightcaps and I have promised a recipe for a 500 yr anniversary cocktail. No talk of them serving cocktails tho.

April is National Poetry Month. We need a break from all the news. I'll be adding to this 🧵for the balance of the month. Feel free to contribute.

A Mennonite gal who was Swiss
Was known far and wide to French kiss
But what was far worse
And made people curse
Was cheating at games like Dutch Blitz

Dirkenstock: it's a sandal. It's an ice skate. It's a radical reformation of our most popular line.

To the person getting dressed every morning, buttons are a convenience. But convenience is also just another word for extravagance :)

But also - a lot more difficult for tailors and dressmakers. So, from the tailor's pow, buttons are an extravagance compared to pins

Before buttons, people used pins to hold their clothes together. Even plain buttons were prettier.

"Mennonite-coded." I'm thinking the family was singing 606 (118/20) as they walked.

Just occurred to me that taking down interprovincial trade barriers could have implications for Mennonite farmers sausage #AffairOfTheSausages
