Liquid Gold sunrise. Photograph taken this morning on Glastonbury Tor.
An unexpected but lovely morning. If anyone follows me on X (@glastomichelle) I have managed to lock myself out and support not helping at the moment. Just to explain my absence over there.
2 weeks in a row and the #NewcastleJets look lost. Little movement up front & leaky defence had led to a woeful 3 goals conceded/game on avg.

Hopefully a week off will give the team a chance to reset & regroup. They're missing Kota & Eli a lot. Some others need to pick up their game #BRIvNEW #ALM
If you're saving Rose as an impact player, bringing him on with 10 to go and 2 down is easy too late #BRIvNEW #ALM
Slice of cheese for the Brisbane coach. Why are you upset mate? Your team is leading #BRIvNEW #ALM
Brisbane smothered the #NewcastleJets in that first half. All the possession and field, quite physical.

Jets look pretty good when the rare opportunity appears but only 1 shot is pretty woeful. Maybe a change at half time to spark something in the 2nd

Though he is back up and running again which is great to see
Not looking good for Grozos #BRIvNEW #ALM
All that pressure from Brisbane finally paid off. #NewcastleJets look a bit bereft of ideas at the moment #BRIvNEW #ALM

Does everyone remember Adriana Smith, the Georgia nurse who was declared brain dead while nine weeks pregnant?

The black woman who was kept alive without the consent of her family because of the fetus?

Baby “Chance” was born in June. He’s still in the NICU.

Finally a big city mayor raised on “YOU CAN’T CUT BACK ON FUNDING! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!”
we’re about to find out if loving SimCity makes you a better mayor

Mamdani was asked in 2002 by NY Mag what he wanted for Christmas and said SimCity 3000

So. To recap. Discord, a company NOT included in Australia's social media age restriction law, had its age verification partner breached and leaked around 68,000 Australian PII details. Even though it isn't included in the ban. Which hasn't started yet. Such a great start before we've even started.
A win against the Canberra dominance. #NewcastleJets kept themselves in the game with scrambling defence & brilliant keeping from Leat (who didn't get red carded in her 1st match...).

Chances were few but were taken, which is great to see. Hopefully this points to a great season ahead #CANvNEW #ALW
Ouch. That's a bad clash between the two Canberra players. Hopefully it's not too bad #CANvNEW #ALW
LANCASTER! First #ALW goal, nicely taken from a great assist #CANvNEW
Canberra seem to be almost camped in the #NewcastleJets half. Jets defence are scrambling well but how much longer can they hold out before Heyman scores again?

Jets need some quality time with the ball at their feet.

#CANvNEW #ALW
Heyman scoring against the #NewcastleJets. It is inevitable. #CANvNEW #ALW
That was a shocker. After last week's great game the #NewcastleJets were rubbish. Underhit passes, ball watching and gun shy in front of goals. Shirt-tug FC took every opportunity given. #NEWvSYD #ALM

A couple years back, I commissioned a local artist to install stained glass in my little house, and I love the light it casts on the walls at sunset💙

I don't see a lot of people talking about this, so I want to highlight something GOOD

Billie Eilish stood in a room full of billionaires and said "you're billionaires... Why?"

She donated 11.5 MILLION DOLLARS to food equity and climate orgs, which Stephen Colbert announced to said billionaires.

All the lyrics to 'Rasputin' are funny but I love 'it was a shame how he carried on'. It sounds like something your gran would say about a disgraced quiz-show host.
Another fun episode of #WordsUnravelled with @robwords.bsky.social and @jesszafarris.bsky.social.

Is like to add one thing, in the Kamilaroi/Gamilaraay language of NW New South Wales, the word for Budgerigar is Gidjirrigaa which when said out loud aren't too dissimilar to each other.
Are pets called 'pets' because we pet them?

This is a Pixar movie. The little moon (Sabrina Carpenter) comes in to work-shadow the veteran actual moon (Meryl Streep). Streep is grumpy about it for the film’s first thirty mins. But by the end they’re inseparable and when 2083 comes we cry. While also learning about the need to let someone go.

It was a beautiful golden start to Sunday here in Glastonbury.
