Does anyone have any travel tips for the European city "Bruges"???
Going next week for our first trip alone since having a baby 2.5 years ago! Currently, our only plans are to sleep in and look at photos of our daughter on our phones. Would love to do more than that...

Seems like as good a day as any to talk about how disgusting @telegraphnews.bsky.social is. I still remember when it was a (right-wing but still) reputable paper. The only thing more embarrassing than the people who read the Telegraph are the people who write/edit it.

I can meditate and study all I want. But none of that really matters if it doesn’t help others relieve their suffering.

Out of nowhere last week, my mum’s Alexa suddenly stopped calling her “Alyson” and started calling her “Haunted House”.
WTF? Is this a weird amazon Halloween thing we don’t get? She really doesn’t like it, no matter how much it makes me laugh.
