Paradise Lost
@paradise-lost.bsky.social
Them whom he governs. This is
servitude,
To serve the unwise, or him
who hath rebelled
Against his worthier, as thine
now serve thee,
Thyself not free, but to
thyself enthralled;
Yet lewdly darest our
ministring upbraid.
VI, 178-182

Around this time last year I got ... chided? upbraided? yelled at? excoriated? for saying Tech didn't worry me. Lesson learned with five minutes to go in the first quarter and plenty of opportunities to relearn it in the cold. BK is a FFC and runs a competent operation.
