Don't bother with American mainstream media doing any actual journalism.

Foreign newspapers are doing a better job at correctly reporting what's happening in our country.

This is my least favourite Mastardon Glitch, I usually abandon the post when this happens. The first pic's alt text worked and this one discarded all the post including a lovely and detailed description of an usual and old rose. No alt text, in the middle it asks Discard draft?

This is a favourite spot for bumblebees to have a snooze.

First Irish Velvet Poppy I had the good luck to see, from this there have been quite a few others and this year's crop, albeit as and where they want not any other way, looks to be very prolific. #flowers #poppies #irishvelvetpoppy

@Itchy this year around my house there are lots of Irish Velvet Poppies, not in flower yet but will post when they are. Lovely to see these things wherever they are:-)

@Itchy they are really nice

Every website in 2025.

Remember when the Internet was awesome and your phone wasn't a tracking device?

@McNeely oh cool, if you sign up to his email list you can never leave

@TheComfortableSpotPodcast is 4.7% below the threshold for action?

Mackenzie Davis in the Terminator is ace, the Disney App stalling and jumping and speeding up and desynching the audio is far from ideal

@footils @Richard_Littler hi-tech clothing indeed, quite pricey but probably very good for the very cold.

@http_error_418 @Richard_Littler oh I definitely couldn't and wouldn't want to have to get changed in a locker room but I imagine the string would be warm and comfortable and the one piece would stop drafts getting in between the jacket and trousers, them models be earning their money that day.

@futurebird I think in the eponymous smart casual category that painting one foot on smart island a good piece enables that, shoes I think certainly are important but also quality accessories, maybe a tasty belt, bag, watch, jewellery, hat, shirt or a garment that is brand new will elevate the overall look. I say this as someone who would wear sandals and shorts all year if possible. I've been finding though that a Janus ring has been giving my recent outfits almost the look of thoughtfulness.

@Richard_Littler I like the fishnet vest pants combo, probably don't make them anymore but could be quite good for the motorbike in the winter as an underlayer and as a special surprise when removing the jacket lols

@dhry tasty. I'm on my third Microsoft ergonomic keyboard and a lot of the keys are rubbed clear, would be cool to be able to get new keys for it.
