This is, quite literally, our collective duty.
Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

The director of the FBI: "I don't read."

His staff (paraphrased): "he doesn’t like meetings in office settings. What he wants is social events."

Gifted my brother a fully painted 1k point Deathwatch Warhammer 40,000 army as a surprise present today. Was nice to see him a bit speechless and happy. Hoping he gets lots of good games out of it!

Reading a book, sipping a coffee and watching the birds eat from my handmade willow bird feeder. Chilled Saturday. Promising myself I'll go out for a run after lunch.

People on Hinge with impossibly specific lists on the 'The Way To Win Me Over' prompt: you're writing this about a person you know and fancy, aren't you? And you're hoping they see your profile, aren't you?

Yay, the bids came back! Couple of starlings seem to be enjoying the bird feeder :)

Lovely day of hiking out on the North Downs, near Reigate. Great way to start the year!

Um, I think someone in Tesco's management might be making a silent cry for help here. It's not even next year yet, leave the Easter promotions alone for a little while longer please!

Some birds finally found my bird feeder today! I know this because I accidentally started them and scared them off. Aw, sorry birbs, you can come back, promise!

Yes, this was a highlight of the day. No, I don't regret my life choices.

Well, not all of them.

In return, from my family I got: handmade cheese board, handmade kitchen and bathroom fragrant cleaning solutions, handmade terrarium, handmade crumpets, butter, jam, mustard pickle, and crackers. Solidly creative presents all-round. Successful day.

Handmade bird feeders and presentation box went down well as my family's Xmas presents this year.

I despise transphobes with my entire heart. Absolutely foul people
"Girlguiding had been facing legal action from a parent over its policy allowing transgender girls to join as members and trans women to volunteer in roles reserved for women, claiming it “exposes girls to harassment”
And presumably feared a sustained campaign.

Hmm, Breeze users turning out to be about as flaky as pretty much any other app. Out of 4 matches in 5 weeks, 1 date, 2 cancellations and even old school stood up once, as well. Not a good track record here! At least people are consistently rubbish across all dating apps?

“Enshittification” is the word of the moment. It’s the reason Google is all ads and Amazon serves you crappy overpriced products. Cory Doctorow, who coined the term, joins @nndroid.bsky.social and @rafaelbehr.bsky.social to discuss how we can combat it ➡️ linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnowpod

Keep in mind there is no law saying bagels are only for the morning. If you want a 9PM bagel, that’s fine. You can just do that.

Ooh, just got stood up. That hasn't happened in a while! It was almost exciting as I realised it was happening, while waiting for the no-show and noticing that their profile had vanished.
