seasonal reminder that if someone says they don't drink:
-it's none of your business why
-hosts should have several non-alcoholic beverage options
-the holidays can be a tough period for non-drinkers
-many jokes about not drinking are bad
-people are burned out and might just be tired

I admire people who’ve lived through hard things and didn’t let the pain harden their hearts.
Let’s be those people.

THREAD.
3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.
We decided to call him Jim.
This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.

Good morning everyone, even Steve, who has just stumbled back from the pub and is pretending it’s “very early” rather than “very late.” He's currently talking to the toaster. I'm keeping out of it.

Sobering piece on MAGA's future. And disregard the absolute ridiculousness of Bluesky's moderation label!
Into the Twilight of the Trump Era

Today I saved the life of a tiny green lizard who got caught between the ancient storm windows and regular windows over my kitchen sink. It took about 2 hours to pry the storm windows off while standing on a rickety ladder in the rain, and another 1 to put them back on. The lizard was ok. 💪
