Just saw violent row btwn car passenger & woman who had exercised her right of way to cross a jct they wanted to turn into (as per chg to HC in 2022). Screaming at her that she’d endangered her kids. Who were now watching a woman scream right in their mother’s face & jab her in chest with a finger.🙄

Computers used to scream every time they connected to the Internet. They knew. They tried to warn us. We did not listen.

Something wonderful for the weekend! About 40,000 years ago, during the #IceAge, this tiny figurine was sculpted from mammoth ivory. Imagine the artist sitting by the warmth and flickering light of a camp fire, carving what is the world’s oldest known sculpture of a horse! 📷 by me #Archaeology

Late appointment at surgery for vit b12 and couldn’t face the idea of anything other than a picky tea so did a trolley dash on way home. May have over catered to some extent.

Right, #Booksky, used to get 100's of replies to these on Twitter so.... My day job is buying books for 34 libraries, help me and my customers out by telling me the best fiction book(s) you've read in 2025. Rules: can be any genre and doesn't have to be new, but NOTHING self-published gogogo! 📚

To all the dads on Father’s Day. I hope, today, that every light in an empty room is turned off and all thermostats are left where you set them.

Weavers and knitters. This is very cool and shows how various types of both textiles work in their use and construction, as well as their machine version counterparts. youtu.be/ncoMYGFXmEs #knitsky #weaving #weavesky? #craft 🧶

Ok, do I know anyone in #fountainpen land who makes and / or uses quill pens (UK-only, realistically) because I have quite a lot of goose wing primaries some over a foot in length that fall perfectly harmlessly out of my birds every moult and I can’t stop myself picking them up…

Just the thing for when you want to add an indefinable air of "mediaeval peasant, dead of plague" to all the wedding photos.

Another sock finished. Top down. This has been ripped back and started again several times. Hoping its mate won’t be quite as challenging!

So many people on Threads sharing very unwise and potentially prejudicial opinions re the Liverpool accused. His defence team will have a field day. 🙄
