I've used the DNC contact form to tell them they have to lead with a simple unified narrative, and to drop all their useless bar charts. Surprisingly, I got an email response from a staff member.
Time to contact them again, they seem to need to be reminded often..

It's a diversion by the buyer to distract from his other sordid dealings.

I'm finding Ursula Le Guin's collection The Birthday of the World and Other Stories surprisingly relevant.

Gorogoa, a beautiful and evocative puzzle game.A few years old but still three thumbs up!
It's on the App Store, especially breathtaking on iPad and also works on iPhone.

There's an outdoor light festival here in Copenhagen for the first 3 weeks of February, artistic light installations throughout the city.
It's great motivation to get off the couch and go outside in the dark and damp Danish winter.

The same with the old textile districts in both Manchesters, UK and New Hampshire. The old factories with wooden water wheels along the canals, converted to luxury condos and galleries, are identical.

Ok I've made a starter pack of nature photographers who post all their own work and make it accessible with alt text. Thanks for the nudge to finally put one together.

That's a bit extreme. My own dentist and I have reached am agreement, she doesn't hurt me and I don't chomp on her finger.

Turns to the endodontist: "So, my new intern friend and I were just wondering, do you give the polar bears laughing gas before you do their root canal? Do they giggle?"

Chill jazz fusion with a 60’s vibe, they could have been the house band for The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

It was a pleasure. Hope you've enjoyed your time in 🇩🇰.

Luckily the weather will be delightful again tomorrow, perfect for sight seeing walks around the city. Enjoy!

I only just realized you're giving the Science and Cocktails talk on The End of the Universe tomorrow evening, bought a ticket and looking forward to it. 😊

Yes, the clouds often come down from the skies to visit the city here, old friends who sometimes hang around a little too long.

If you're looking for a good vegan restaurant, Flavour Bastards is excellent. I had a wonderful dinner there recently.

The sun looked exactly like that up here in Copenhagen because of the huge wild fires in Portugal some years ago.
It was beautiful and disturbing.
