get off the dating apps; find your soulmate the old-fashioned way—

SOMEHOW overnight we got within $63 aud of our $10.5k stretch goal??! AMAZING?! so with 6 days left, we can potentially have enough time for another stretch goal, and more extras!

(and this counts as your reminder that there are only 6 days left, lol)

A warning to avoid @ling-app.bsky.social 's Ling language app: they are scamming customers with no in-app unsubscribe option + by offering “special offers” outside the Google/Apple store that they get you to pay for through a private link.

the inability to unsubscribe and their promises to link 1/?

What do you do when there's a murdered bloke outside the window, a tea-drinking fae in the kitchen, a vampire sniffing at the door, and a cold-eyed fae with a very big sword hanging around?

Sometimes life is bloody murder...

my fave kind of urban legend
I was reading a book the other day and the author threw in a passing mention to a bridge in Cork, Ireland which I’m pretty sure was a gift to me personally because what do you mean the locals have called it The Shakey Bridge for so long that recent conservation works were forced to retain the wobble

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.
