Plus there is stuff I haven't ever used myself.

The more I look at my old laptops program file list, the more it looks like someone installed an image of files on it while I was overseas. There are things on it that I haven't used for a decade and deleted ages ago. And, some of the files are administrator password protected 🤔

Screenshot of a Facebook post featuring three of the Portland protesters wearing inflatable frog costumes with the following text: Episcopalians on Facebook Elizabeth Rose Elrod • 22h • Exodus 8:2-6 "But if you refuse to let them go, I will plague your whole country with frogs...

A task for another day when the flowers have expired
Wot da ! @jenkspl64.bsky.social · 8d
The moss I removed last week has worked its way down to the water tanks today.

The problem is the orange and lemon trees are in full flower and the tanks are near them and hundreds of bees. So I can't complete the task today without upsetting the bees. 🤦‍♂️

I noticed a neighbours car was vandalised this morning, parked on the street. I have a soft spot for that particular brand of car, even though the owners of the brand have changed. It is weird as the street is normally very quiet. It just goes to show.

1/ Sick and wounded Russian soldiers have been held for months in an open-air pit in the ground to 'remotivate' them, according to two military paramedics. They say that their regiment's deputy political officer is removing soldiers from hospital and imprisoning them. ⬇️

Abbott was so bad as PM that his own socially conservative side of the party were plotting to dump him after less than 18 months - including Hastie's predecessor in Canning the late Don Randall. He's got considerably weirder since.
