So happy to receive my @manderleypress.bsky.social order in Australia today, beautifully packaged. Thank you Rebecca. Just in time for summer holiday reading! GB

My Splendid Fairy Wren (a.k.a. Blue Wren) cock bird in "nuptial" plumage. 16 different colours of stained glass. Eye is grey filati and iridised black glass (the only black in the whole piece). Still have his legs and background to go - that will be very simple.

The Clash release “London Calling”, their 3rd studio LP, today in 1979. “Punk rock isn’t something you grow out of,” Joe Strummer said. “Punk rock is an attitude, and the essence of that attitude is, ‘Give us some truth.’” “Train in Vain”

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. — Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Yay! I don't need it, but SO MANY do. Endometriosis drug Visanne to be listed on the PBS, more than halving its annual cost #ChronicIllness Medsky Australia

Me: Don't be a dick, be kind to others, you don't know what they're going through, it's not that hard. Also me: You know your car has indicators you fuckhead?

Trump wants Zelenskyy to surrender parts of Ukraine to Russia so Putin will end the war. Sure. Just like the USA surrendered the White House to Russia on November 5. Ukraine should surrender nothing to Putin. 🌻 #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦 #USPolitics

Article on such an important topic - the buildings we allow to be built today should not be compromising the amenity, wellbeing & environment of all future generations that will have to live in these buildings. Rich countries like Aust have no excuses for allowing such low housing standards

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it

Just doing some research and found this photo: Marquez overwhelmed with emotion at the 2021 Portuguese GP after his first finish since November 2019. With crew chief Santi Hernandez. This is what it means to these people 😎✊👏

“New word”

Absolutely. No problems at all

Great quotes throughout out history replacing a word with skeet. You must skeet the thing you think you cannot skeet. - Eleanor Roosevelt. Your turn.

I'm going to blow your mind: It is possible for the same person to enjoy paper books, ebooks, AND audiobooks, all for different reasons and at different times.

Serious Q for the room about the ALP's social media ban Has anyone seen either the evidence the ALP is using to assert what damage is actually being done to kids now (and/or) evidence of the benefits that kids 13-16 get by being excluded from social media? I might have missed it? Did it exist?

Dr. Oz shouldn't be a surprise. Neither should Matt Gaetz or any of these insane cabinet nominations. Y'all, the idea is to tear apart government institutions, forcing the country into a chaotic spiral that ends up requiring total government control. The idea is to consolidate power.

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

More overnight snow has given the remaining roses a sugar icing appearance. Its #RoseWednesday in Narnia #Gardening #Greenheart🌿💚 #Gardeningfeed

'A sprinkling of snow', they said on the wireless! Flash says he's glad we doubled up on Digestives at the last shop.

Of all the ways in which we lag behind our European mainland neighbours, one of the most visible in daily British life is our refusal to make towns and cities pedestrian-friendly spaces. A failure of policy, imagination and planning.

A very grumpy owl - medieval stained glass from the Burrell Collection.

The ongoing misrepresention of @climate200.bsky.social's @simonahac.bsky.social by both Labor and the Libs, rpted by a complicit mainstream news media, verges on defamation. I never hear the same criticism of billionaire Gina Rinehart for her overt influence on Coalition policy. 😠 #auspol #QandA
