Please stop sharing this picture of JD Vance. The Vice President is not happy that it's going viral. JD's wife told reporters he is so upset that he hasn't left the couch all day. He's so distraught that he won't even let her go in the room.

It’s prairie coneflower season. They’re such fun, silly flowers, and I’m happy to see some red ones this year. 🌼👀

Fediverse! I need your help.

I bought this hanging floating-candle candelabra thing as a teenager, and it survived some 20 years until my mum decided to transport it up to me.

Two of the votives are broken. I have scowered Etsy and eBay and various search engines and not found anything to replace them.

It's rather beautiful lit up, but I haven't been able to enjoy it as an adult.

Can you help? I either need 2 replacement votives or 6. 1/2 #candles #crafts #glass #GlassBlowing

Apologies for the terrible photos.

Ideally, I would like to replace them with matching votives, but given I bought this in the late 90s and there's no mark to say who made it, I get that's a slim chance. But these specific votives are beautiful lit up. IDK if this is something a glass blower could try to duplicate??

Failing that, something that would fit the hangers and sit well with the other votives.

I am disabled on benefits so cannot afford much, but this is special to me. 2/2

The Brexit referendum was designed to halt the rise of Farage. How did that work out, Dave?

It's exhausting being on a plane piloted by demented, sociopathic 5 year olds.

Irregular reminder that I'm still looking for work of the type I'd get paid for (I can find the other type much more easily). I'm a software developer in New Zealand. There's a wide range of technology I'm happy working with but I'd probably be able to get up to speed fastest on a project using Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, React, and TypeScript.

@stavvers They've just seen the price of swift bricks in the area.

I think part of the LLM-Hype is that we all can be managers now. Not knowing anything, not doing anything, but telling others to go and produce a result we can then happily attribute to ourselves.

You might think that Star Trek is a show about exploration, about science, about morality, about what humanity is capable of if we truly embrace the best of ourselves. That is a misconception! Star Trek is, in fact, a show about the weirdest chairs you've ever seen.

I'd forgotten that, back in 2019, I adapted the shot of 'tank man' in Tiananmen Square. It feels even more relevant now.

It's FRIDAY! Woo hoo!

As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can.

The wee folk tried to learn a couple of new moves this week, but sometimes, just sometimes, I really wish I had given them knees, elbows and waists. Bendy limbs and unbendy bodies are a little restrictive 😆

Whoops.

This is what happens when you rely heavily on government handouts (socialism) to keep your companies afloat.

Musk the Mooch is now kissing ass at Mar-a-Lago …… again.
