Hot Links: Monday, December 28

Morning, folks!

Hope everyone had a great holidays. I’m actually still on mine, but the links must go on, and also my holidays are self-imposed so if you really want to get technical about it, I’m not on holidays.

All of which is to say, we’ve got a full weekend’s worth of links for you to slowly digest with perhaps an ale, a stinky cheese and a few sheets of prosciutto, so I’m going to lean into those and get my dinner rolls back to bed.

Stay blessed.
