Any tadpole behaviourologists on Blue Sky @chrisgpackham.bsky.social ?! Why do the tadpoles in my pond come to burrow en masse in pebbles at edge of pond in the daytime? Temperature? Food source? (although not obviously different from other sections)

Dear #NYTConnections setters - could you possibly limit yourself to one rather US-centric term category per puzzle? Ta v much

@candygourlay.bsky.social Just had a lovely lunch date with my 3 yr old great nephew who told me ALL about the funny author he met yesterday and her adventures in her grandmother's cupboard (hopefully I'm not conflating two of his stories). He'd clearly had a brilliant time listening to you.

Really enjoying this classic Sesame Street segment, two minutes of freestyle jazz riffing on saxophone factory footage

Lovely. Actually son's first school trip in Reception was to the tip and I don't think it got better than that for any subsequent trip.

Anyone got any info on when @netflix.com will be adding more episodes of #TheFirstFrost ? I can see episodes 11 is already out but their listing stops at 10. Frustrating.

I know. Sigh. Need more grizzled and careworn romance.

horrifying to know that Take That didn't lie when they sang someday this will all be someone else's dream.

On the other hand Residents Thingy in April.
