We have upgraded our geomagnetic forecast today (12 November 2025) to the highest intensity level amid an ongoing solar storm.
Current predictions suggest that the activity will result in potentially the largest solar storm to hit our planet in over two decades.

i think this is the bed our niblings set up for me last time we visited. it was very comfy.
So the IKEA doll bed was finally back in stock: obviously I cracked and ordered one for the buns. 😅
