I don’t know about you, but I have managed to block almost every single bit of crap news coming out of the US quite successfully, I know I’m only hurrying my head on the sand, but my mental health and blood pressure thanks me!

My friend took the answer sheet from me at a pub quiz when she saw my uncontrolled handwriting.

I use to do neat cursive but my hand doesn't naturally form the shapes anymore

Signature moves: are we losing the ability to write by hand?
We are far more likely to use our hands to type or swipe than pick up a pen. But in the process we are in danger of losing cognitive skills, sensory experience – and a connection to history

Meet Chloe, the queen of the castle. She’s 13 years old and loves to cuddle on my other half’s lap, lick his hand with her paw holding his arm. When she gets tired of licking, she rests her snout on his arm And falls asleep! I want to come back as a dog like Chloe ❤️ 🐾 🐶

Woke up to the elderly Irish mammy in a panic over losing the house keys. She had emptied all three wheelie bins on the driveway, convinced she had dropped the keys in one of them. It’s very stormy and wet, it took 2 hours to locate said keys in a kitchen drawer #dementia is such an awful illness 😔

I’ve actually never watched a Hallmark Christmas Movie (yet) but this ep of @quietriotpod.bsky.social gave me absurd amounts of joy. My advice: give it a listen before the year’s out!
📽️The Politics of Hallmark Xmas Movies🎄

@sturdyalex.bsky.social discusses origins & tropes of this festering festive tradition with @lindamarric.bsky.social.

“All of them are about a woman being humbled into a narrower life.”

It’s time for THE charger.

Today, the USB-C becomes officially the common standard for charging new mobile electronic devices in the EU.

It means better-charging technology, reduced e-waste, and less fuss to find the chargers you need!

First Christmas without Sean and the family put a huge effort to throw a proper Christmas dinner 🥹 his presence was missed but we all brave it and had a few laughs and shed a few tears.
