Athens ( Greece ...not USA ) Anyone got a hotel recommendation please? Some boutique maybe with a nice bar / restaurant or something close by? 🙏

The Pike’s Peak Humane Society has a social media manager who is very good at their job

I've never heard earned wealth phrased this way, but she's right about it.

I have so many questions.

They think we are all stupid. 🤬

This is Clyde, unofficial mayor of Cahors nightlife. He “works” at The Pukeko, but frequents bars + restaurants across Cahors like he owns the place. Perched on bar stools, weaving between tables… or occasionally chauffeured on his human David’s shoulder. Cool dude. Local legend. #caturday

Released 47 years ago today "Love Song", a single by English punk rock band The Damned. The Damned - Love Song (German TV show,June 2, 1979) #punk #punks #punkrock #lovesong #thedamned #history #punkrockhistory

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

It's a taxi, train, coach, plane, car sorta day

Grim.

Happy Caturday from Pooks

In Jan I reduced my alcohol intake, mid Feb I reduced my sugar intake, life has also been extremely stressful so that's a factor too , but so far 20lbs down and another 16lbs to go. I'm starting to feel like the old me. The booze + the sugar have been no problem , the life stress not so easy :/

My local supermarket carpark is bunged ! Have I missed some news?

Des Demonas and Dion Lunadon were fab last night. Worth the 2+ hours drive back home. ( The alternative accommodation given by the gite host wasn't appropriate so we didn't stay)

Anyone know if there's electricity in Eymet area? #stormnils

Currently at that staged of frazzled where I can't work out even the simplest of logistics. Monday I wished the M+S cashier "a good weekend" Today notified tomorrow's flights have been cancelled due to pilot strike. Have to reread train + coach timetables a dozen times. Stick a fork in me I'm done

Good grief, currently in UK and can't access chat messages on here because I need to confirm my age.

Trying to choose a much need holiday destination in Greece. We've never been before. Ideally walking distance to sea, quiet tavernas, perfect for couples rather than families. I'm overwhelmed searching. Would v. much like some recommendations pls !

As they knew full well all along www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Anti-fascist posters appear in London

This is one of the biggest stories in America, comparable in scale to what’s happening in Minnesota. The largest social media platform is transferred to Trump’s allies and immediately forbids you from saying anything bad about him. Absolutely totalitarian in nature. No different than China.

The death cleaning continues, going through cardboard tubes. I could have sworn I had a poster for The Europeans but found this one instead. From 1998 exhibition. I'll list on eBay in a couple of weeks.

Post from Mac Randolph RIP Alex Pretti, He was my Dad’s ICU nurse. He read my dad’s final salute at the VA after he passed away. Never wanted to share this video, but his speech is very on point.

Board of Peace - Season 1

It is generally agreed that she corkscrewed as she plunged, if that counts.

I've given myself the task of "death cleaning" the house this year. So far I've filled a couple of bin bags ( one for dump, one for charity) and sold a few things, but mostly managed to make every room a complete tip.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

Me: What did you see for the week ahead, Bunny? Bunny: *furrows brow and looks lost*

Waiting for Dreamies

ICE agent's video shows Renee Good was turning to drive around him when he shot her three times and said "Fuckin' bitch". www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Greenland/Denmark already have an old deal (since WW2 and still active) with the US that gives the US rights to have as many military bases/personnel on Greenland as they want. It was NEVER ABOUT NATIONAL SECURITY!!! youtube.com/shorts/RcVzd...

The US is more likely to fight Europe than fight for it.

There’s always a tweet.

Wouldn’t be sleeping terribly easy in Nuuk tonight.

Is Trump going to appear in military uniform?

Yesterday found myself with an hour to kill in lovely Cajarc so visited a couple of brocantes, bought a mixed lot of apéro glasses, chatted to a cat and discovered a sweet independent bookshop. #france

Got up to see if it's a white Christmas. It's not. Back to duvet.

A cold trip around Cahors market for veggies and goose fat, so time for a very delish vin chaud at Le Coin des Halles. #cahors

Buttercup's Christmas message

My atelier is featured in the Winter edition of In Her Studio magazine :) I haven't actually seen a copy as mine seems to have been lost in the post but it's been in the wild for at least a month now !

A box of beautiful things 😍

Dirty Three were amazing !!

Fabulous long Sunday lunch at Le Cépage in Montmartre, thank you @clivethebike.bsky.social for recommending !

Cold December morning in Paris

Off to see Dirty Three in Paris at the weekend. Hanging around Montmartre again, last December there was a great antique market in the streets. Any flea markets nearby on Sunday morning? #montmartre

“It is now beyond doubt, however; that this assisted by the White House in its efforts to destroy Ukraine and that the United States has declared war on Europe under its appalling president”… and who does the US support in Europe? The AFD in Germany and Reform UK here. Such grim betrayal. (iPaper)

Christmas lunch today. The careful dance of quietly troubleshooting + respecting decades of rituals, mediation + managing expectation. My 84yr old dad got to decorate the tree this year for the first time. Home tomorrow to get my decorations out of the attic.

Right, that's the Airbus updates done, next job... #SolarFlares

Hey @erinbiba.bsky.social I hope this finds you
