I've always loved the fact that the word 'sneeze' is the result of a historical accident. The original form, in the Middle Ages, was 'fnese', but someone mistook the 'f' for the long medieval 's' and wrote down 'sn-' instead. Fneezing sounds much more like a proper, nasal sneeze.

For anyone wondering what kind of jewellery I make! I make beaded lovelies and have been for 30 years - it’s a work in progress. I also hold bead jewellery making classes and can restring broken bead bracelets and necklaces Please visit my website to see more

I have Microsoft points I can redeem & donate, but I'm in the UK - does anyone know of any specific charities that might be available on the @microsoft.com UK charity redemption page that can go toward helping people/animals in LA right now? I can only get British version of Red Cross ❤️

Veterans impacted by the LA wildfires can get help by contacting the VA at: 1-800-MyVA411 (1-800-698-2411)

Please send anything you can to Jordan @indiedynamo.bsky.social, who lost his home, brother, and father to the fires here in Los Angeles. If you can’t donate, please share. www.gofundme.com/f/help-jorda...

I am guessing most folks are stretched tight on the money front, but if you are looking for solid LA orgs to give to, this is a great list. There are also asks for items that LA nonprofits on the ground are hoping to acquire. 💚https://la2050.org/blog/la-wildfires-volunteer-and-support-guide

I was watching @parksandrecreation.bsky.social last night, when the internet glitched and paused on this scene, which looks like the cover of an old Ladybird book... Good morning 😄

Please share Sooo many decorations made and ready for sale! Emily has also invested in more materials as she has faith in her products, so there will be more made. Drop myself or Emily to get yours www.instagram.com/p/DB_lpxJobW...

I’ve been helping Emily add the hanging bows and bells to her glitter slay ornaments and they look amazing 😍. Drop one of us a message to get yours, also she has two more colours coming pink and red 🥰.

Etymology of the day: to be ‘blowing a hoolie’ (or ‘hooley’) was probably inspired by the Orkney word ‘hoolan’, a howling gale, with a touch of the ‘hooley’ that is a very noisy party thrown in.
