In lieu of my standard company email signature I’m going to just sign all my emails with a picture of a wax seal with my initials on it. I think it raises the stakes

Why even send emails? Just get a team of ravens to deliver them with an actual wax seal.

Ya, I love it but it’s getting kind of repetitive. He needs a foil. Last season with the council he had an enemy and a cause, but they can’t do that every season so they are doing the contrived competition with Kaleb.
He posted a video with the other TGT hosts and Andy Wilman so hopefully something else in the works beyond the final upcoming TGT special
 
Booked 2 first class train tickets for our Italy trip (Rome - Salerno) for $78 total. Wild.

Why, oh why, can we not replicate Europe's high speed rail system?!

A little perspective on US distances vs European distances.

According to Google, the distance from Rome to Salerno is 233 km or 144 miles and takes 1 hour 39 minutes.

Washington, DC to Philadelphia is 140 miles or 225 km. Amtrak Acela takes 1 hour 34 minutes from Union Station (DC) to 30th Street Station (Philly). Cost is as little as $30, depending on travel time and day.

Raleigh, NC to Statesville, NC is 146 miles.

Paris to Berlin is 877 km or 545 miles. Train trip is a little over 8 hours. DC to Boston is 435 miles or 770 km. Make it Richmond to Boston and the distance is 535 miles, or 861 km.

Th US is a really big place. Intercity Rail infrastructure is privately built and paid for.

ETA: Florida Brightline rail from Orlando to Miami is 235 miles (378 km) and takes about 3.5 hours. A four pack of round trip coach tickets is $398.
