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

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.

Thank you. My puzzles are available here www.worldofmoose.com/collections/...

It’s wet and dark outside and I am cold, tired and grumpy. So I lit the fire, made a cup of tea and finished my beautiful jigsaw by @mooseallain.bsky.social and while it’s still dark and wet outside, I’m not nearly so grumpy.

The first (1955) Danish edition of Ray Bradbury’s FAHRENHEIT 451. Later editions did not convert the title, so this is the only SI-compatible edition! 🎢

Was treated to a most wonderful library today. And a decent helping of autumn.

Every time you repost this, and angel gets its wings.

I still think about this every few weeks

I’d not thought of it like this. Interesting and scary read.

I'm pretty sure that taking someone's prestigious titles away doesn't retroactively undo any abuse they inflicted on children, but then I freely admit I'm no legal expert.

This. Forever this.

Made my family come to a cemetery today to find fungus. Devil’s fingers. Very pleased with myself.

For sale, with no strings attached.

By the time he’s ’talking about Jolene in his sleep’ and calling her name out and whatnot, our narrator has already lost. It’s not about pleading ‘don’t take my man’. She’s got to look at the underlying situation.

i've had this image in my browser tabs for months and it makes me laugh every time i'm rooting around in em now you can have it too

I cleaned the chicken mirror and I may accidentally have broken Barracuda. She’s been humming to herself for fifteen minutes now.

Turns out that when Americans said "If it weren't for us you'd be speaking German now..." their objection was to learning a second language, not fascism.

And that’s Wednesday done.

also, bonus fun fact: that tearjerker scene with the hundreds of butterflies in encanto? it's sad because the butterflies are all dead sad reacts only :(

This should go in the Metropolitan Police starter pack.

May your Monday be as useful as Banquo in a wheelbarrow

How not to illustrate the similarity of bone structures between humans & horses.

I have taken the Tylenol that was in the medicine cabinet and which they think probably is the reason you like trains forgive me but that’s bullshit you got autism from your dad

Over on the Other Place I would occasionally put this thread together, most recently during lockdown, four years ago in fact, and I realised I'd not done it here. So, bear with, and feel free to mute as this is an epic (genuinely, I’m not sure we won’t reach hitherto non-invoked thread limits tbh).

😌 Hey @spidergravy.bsky.social! Your posts have a minor positive spin to them. Your sentiment score is 0.11 (slightly positive). You're bringing some light positivity - feel free to brighten it up more!

@sentimentbot.bsky.social how about me?

Well this is absolutely terrific

"So what we did, right, what we did was just declare they were a terrorist organisation! Problem solved. Seriously, hard recommend."

My chickens did an Art.

One thing that upsets me about all the far right hate is how pervasive it is even in those who oppose it. It’s a dominating and distracting worry, telling you everything else is trivial, especially the things that bring you joy. It’s not living in my head rent free. It’s a goddamn home invasion.

Wednesday.

Fumin’. Went to the physiotherapist. Annoyed at two things: firstly, she was nice. And then she said that the only thing that’s going to help is doing a tiny exercise several times a day. Damn her.

Daughter’s friend mentioned a queer line-dancing group at university. I said that it sounded like the only kind of line dancing I’d be interested in. I asked how queer you have to be to get accepted? “Oh,” she replied, “you’d fit right in!”

There is a partial eclipse of a full blood moon this evening. This is a perfectly natural phenomenon, and no cause for alarm. Unless the full blood moon gets TOO FULL and bursts and we all DROWN IN BLOOD.

Today I went to what my son still calls an arbatorium. I fell out of a tree but saw some good things.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Excellent work, @jonnymorris.bsky.social How about a verse to assist in distinguishing The Onedin Line from Poldark next?
