Surveillance cat.

*light sabre, even. 🤦‍♀️

I'd consider it only after heavy snow. And probably alcohols.

I gotta go sometime

Where did I put my electric screwdriver please thank you

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

I just have to show you this photo of my great nephews going trick or treating - I can't stop laughing when I look at them. #halloween #starwars

When I worked at the Sherlock Holmes museum people would regularly ask me where he was buried. If I was feeling mischievous I’d tell them Highgate Cemetery. (They also occasionally asked if he was an ancestor of mine.)

@icod.bsky.social I wish you'd bring your kitten content to the bright side 😍 (and fyi I *could* tell Sasha was the girl cat before you said. I was v good at the boy/girl Cat face quiz 😂

This is such a lovely (and local to me) piece. I remember first really noticing spindle on a walk through the arboretum in Hertford in 2020.

Via @timmorton2.bsky.social this story of a speculative and frankly abusive freeholder grabber. Milne is a disgrace. There is a statutory process for valuing and obtaining the freehold (soon likely to be cheaper still). Then.. www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/a-london-law...

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

We need more reporting of local government. This is quite a thread...

This lad is 19 today. Hope I look this good (and “I take no crap”) if I make it into my 90s.

This is Sylvester. He's a feral cat who lives in the grounds of an old house in Sleat. The people moved out but they provide food for him and whenever I'm passing I stop by to feed him and give him a scritch.

Stop the clock! I’ve found the clue!

OK, we're approaching the end of today's lovely #buyastrangerabook day. I've had a couple of donations this week so I've got about £30 of free books to offer out. If you'd like something in particular, get in touch UK only.

Federal prosecutor, in his rebuttal, is in the tough position of hoping the jury forgets about the hundreds of MAGA folks pardoned by Donald Trump for vicious assaults on law enforcement on Jan. 6 and takes a sandwich case seriously.

[P] Found a higher-quality photo; IT *IS* TAPED UP SHEETS OF PAPER!

Schrödinger's Hero

almost posted a thought about Mamdani then remembered this tweet

[going through security for federal court] “Where you going, for the sandwich?” “Yup.” “Sandwich heard around the damn world.”

This #buyastrangerabook offer from @lancslass.bsky.social is still up for grabs. Helen's offering to buy someone any spy thriller/ crime book, up to £15. All you have to do is come up with a title, and it's yours. UK only

More #buyastrangerabook day magic. @spidergravy.bsky.social is offering to buy someone any book by Patrick Ness. Here are a few to choose from. If there are any you fancy, get in touch. UK only.

#LegalEthics Tidbit: OK, #AI is not reliable for legal research. But it’s really good at accurately summarizing documents, right? RIGHT!? In response to a summary judgement motion, a TX plaintiff’s lawyer wanted to submit a witness affidavit that compared ... (cont.) lnkd.in/ePra8vFB #lawsky #law

November is the peak month for wintering Woodcock arrivals. Unfortunately, Woodcock are prone to colliding with buildings during their noctural migration. If you find a dead or injured bird, please report it via the BirdTrack App, or email [email protected]. 📷 Woodcock by Liz Cutting / BTO

Toad wrote on a piece of paper: A LIST OF THINGS TO DO TODAY. Then he wrote: WAKE UP

UK people, I've uncovered a scam website (orthopulse.co.uk) mis-selling healthcare products. Wish I'd looked on TrustPilot before parting with my money. Anyone know how we might get this company formally investigated? Address based in France, tat sent from China. uk.trustpilot.com/review/ortho...

Sharing this a lot tonight - donated items in disaster only make things worse (pretty much without exception and anywhere in the world). There is a long history of this going very wrong particularly after hurricanes www.theguardian.com/books/2023/m...

Once every year we fill the car boot with stuff for the Animal Aid place where Molly Cat came from two years ago. We're just back from that & it's always such a pleasure, not least because it's the same lovely people, who all remember Molly, & who always love to see more photos of her 🐈🥰 #Caturday

My friend’s dog is a proper geezer.

Anyways in other news I've finally realised (2 months late?) what the #IbizaBoss man's haircut reminds me of. It's an acorn. (The emoji for an acorn however does not: it looks like a horse chestnut: 🌰 🤷‍♀️)

I've a jacket potato* in the oven and I'm so pleased with myself that I have managed to actually start cooking in plenty of time rather than the fancy it when it's already 90 minutes too late. *Two** **whuuuut - they don't make them as big as they used to be 🤷‍♀️

This graph never fails to be shocking: "The US has experienced the earliest and greatest slowdown in life expectancy improvements among higher-income countries, reported Eileen Crimmins. “We have horrible life expectancy—and it’s getting worse and worse”" www.prb.org/resources/se...

What more does one need?

The guy in front of me in the security at La Guardia was traveling with only a medium pizza and a cat?

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK... 78% are murdered by a partner/ex Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety In fact, they voted against them...

I assume the King would have had to make continued financial provision for his brother in his will, as part of these shenanigans, in case of him pre decreasing Andrew, as that's the only way for the Royal Family to draw a line.

Woman on #AnyAnswers suggesting Andrew should be made to live in a council house for a year - like it's a punishment?! It's a dream for many stuck in temporary accommodation comprising a room for a family.

Woke up bluddy freezing. Had to put a throw on top of the (admittedly still 4.5 tog) duvet. At least Sassy got an extra meal out of it
