This does look interesting, but are we just seeing the girls' perspective, or will we see Aunt Lydia's too?

🧡Spotted at a Small City Fringe* Festival in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A man (30s?) is a picture of pure pride and joy on watching his very pregnant wife perform in a theatrical song and dance show.
Surrounded by friends, grinning whenever she takes the stage. This is love. (1)

I've never seen a skykark as anything other than a tiny speck, so that's pretty brilliant, tbh.

It's an awful time, James. Vent all you need to. I agree that now isn't the best time for making big decisions about where you want to be, but it seems clear that you need to get out of there. Any chance you could take a break away, maybe to your family? Sending a hug πŸ«‚

Everyone talks about how Derek Meddings was a fantastic miniature model maker, but in reality, he was just a very, very large man.

This delivery driver throws treats to all the dogs on his route to see if they can catch. Spoiler alert: some of them definitely cannot. Still 13/10 for all (TT: jezzyvi)

You've learnt so much as a country and as individuals over the last few years. They're not lessons you'd want to learn, but I agree that you can teach us a lot.

This seems to be a bizarre and yet feasible thread @mrjamesob.bsky.social exploring the reasoning behind the question "why now?"
