I am aware this is v random, but had to share

@skinnylatte.hachyderm.io.ap.brid.gy I was on swiftie Reddit today, and saw Monterey Bay aquarium being mentioned and my only association of that is with you and your posts. So got v excited when I realised the only good thing the new album has done is the fundraiser at your workplace!

Max Martin X Taylor Swift is such a relief after multiple Jack Antonoff albums.

Scene on the ocean, with humpback fluke on the left, a humpback dorsal fin on the right, and sea gulls flying above, reminiscent of the sea gull theme of 1989 (Taylor’s Version).

1989 (Humpback’s Version). 🦑

What the fu**ing shit, nyt!?!?!?!
Just within 24 hours after five of al-jazeers journalists were killed, nyt published this.
Who wrote it?
An israeli writer.
The blood of the journalists is still fresh in the journalists’ graves.
Blood is on nyt hands.

I am into hoof trimming videos now.

The way some hoofs explode while trimming is incredible.

Excellent step up from pimple popping.

Lol. I loved using these when I was a kid.

Disabled Palestinians like Maali are being denied healthcare & special needs & starved to death with their families in Israel's genocide. Please help by sharing & donating if you can, they're in desperate need of food & diapers (which cost $150 a pack & last 3 days):

Been a while since someone picked up a copy of my Story compilation. It has 23 stories, while 20 of those #FlashFiction are accessible on my site (check quoted post for link) - there are 3 short stories which are not accessible online.

So check out the e-book now!

Social media is so bad nowadays that I honestly find myself opening Reddit more and more when I want to mindlessly scroll.

Screenshot: No room for wokeness! @Wokenessisevil Notice how no one, not a single soul, has ever complained about the female gaze in entertainment. [photos show Hugh Jackman (Wolverine) and Alan Ritchson (Reacher) with ripped muscles]

This isn’t the female gaze. This is the male gaze. It’s men who are obsessed with the physicality of other men. Women, in the main, would much rather see a man who looks like he’d make himself a stack of buttered toast and let you steal a slice

Phew

I am going through a period of transition - which is usually difficult for me - but for the first time I feel able to process my emotions than putting a social post bandaid on them.

My emotions are caused by me and the people I interact with, not by some ex colleague doing things on Instagram.

This app is the only “social” app on my phone. (YT and Reddit don’t count for now).
I don’t know what is viral, no idea often what my partner or friends are talking about.
And I am so much calmer and care so less about others.

Neurodivergent Students Don’t Need a Calm Corner, They a Whole Classroom Rooted in Calm, Connection, and Compassion “Just make a calm-down space in your room!” they say, as if emotional regulation can be solved with a bean bag chair, a glitter jar, and a cute sign that says “breathe.” But here’s what so many people...

“If we truly want to support dysregulated students, especially neurodivergent ones, we need to stop putting the burden of managing big emotions solely on them and instead take a hard look at the environments we create.” From @againstrestraint.com:

Feel like posting on the only social media app on my phone since I am experiencing eMoTiOnS

Missed Irrfan Khan and KK so much.

Why band didn’t crop up so much in the first movie. Here they seem to be in every next scene

Location and believability; stop trying to convince me that the shots in bangalore were done there. It’s clear it is Bombay.

No, Kolkata has no functional tr routes that one can use everyday

And no corporate car owning type like Monty will use metro in Bombay.

Even the girl who plays konkonas daughter is excellent. Cannot believe they got Sara Ali Khan to act a bit. Her wig should not have been cast

Story: the first half is very confusing with so much happening. But it’s a rare second half better than the first

+

Watched Metro In Dino today.

It comes up to 60% of the first movie.

Music: could be much better. No songs I see myself playing when I am sad. The musical numbers in the beginning could have been skipped

Performances: Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona, Neena Gupta are all amazing. +

A selection of insect illustrations, plus an owl.

More insect illustrations - beetles, grasshoppers, mantis and moth

Yet more insects, including an Assassin bug, more beetles, and a spotted lanternfly.

You guessed it - more insects, plus a blue legged tarantula.

I did a massive #PortfolioDay tweet (or whatever these things are called) but it somehow evaporated. So let me try again...
