Just sharing this again.

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already.
It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

Cat lies on legs. Legs are draped over the armrest of a chair. Chair is covered in wooly blankets. There's some cabinets in the background.

The German grassroots campaign organisation Campact has won a preliminary injunction against X.AI. The case started cause Grok had generated and shared untrue statements about Campact. The court ruled that X.AI was responsible and had to stop Grok from making false statements about Campact.

Gute Nachricht: Wir haben gegen Elon Musks KI vor Gericht gewonnen.

Das Landgericht Hamburg sagt klar: Auch eine KI darf keine Lügen verbreiten – und die dahinter stehende Firma haftet im Zweifel dafür.

Unser Rechtsstaat funktioniert. Auch gegen Milliardenkonzerne mit Gottkomplex.

Online lesson this morning. Had some fun with trying to tackle a more complex composition ( the original is a Breitner, I think)

Black and white sketch of a painting. We're looking at a 19 century bar. In the middle is a female singer on a podium, she's surrounded by seated female figures. In the front is the audience, we're looking at their backs, there's a man playing the piano on the right side, he is pictured en profil. It's a copy of a Breitner ( I think) who was a painter in the ( Netherlandish) Impressionist style.

I bet it's a nice cool ( PUN) colour ( YOU NOTICED THE PUN, RIGHT?)

Can anyone hazard a guess as to what I have here, please? Self-seeded in a pot outdoors, central/southern UK.
First thought was tomato family, and image search suggested physalis or tomatillo, but in not confident about either.
🌱

Mystery seedling. Flower a bit like a large tomato flower, with 5-fold symmetry, but lemon yellow with a black centre. Plant is currently about 20cm high.

And this is how #folklore starts...

#wolfenoot

#custom #tradition #DogsOfBlueSky

Image of a social media post by Jax Goss which reads: 'My son has invented a holiday called Wolfenoot. It is when the Spirit of the Wolf brings and hides small gifts around the house for everyone. People who have, have had, or are kind to dogs get better gifts than anyone else. You eat roast meat (because wolves eat meat) and cake decorated like a full moon. A holiday to the spirit of wolves that celebrates people who are kind to dogs? I can 100% get behind this. So we will celebrating Wolfenoot. It's on the 23rd November if anyone else is moved to celebrate it (Wink emoji). (If you do, send me pics, so I can show my kid his idea spread. (Heart emoji)). ETA:Woah, this seems to be resonating and taking off. Please use #wolfenoot if you post pics or anything so he can see how it spreads. (Smile emoji) He's already excited that other people want to do it. (Heart emoji)

🧡You deserve what you want,
Hope you get what you want….
Don’t worry—we got our paws on the original artwork. 🐾

🎤We heard you calling on the megaphone,
The otter tee returns to stand on its own.
The legend wore it—Swifties found it
You all are quite the pros 🦦✨

This is Dave. He has a smile that could light up a room. Only smiling with his bottom teeth right now so he doesn't blind you. 13/10 very considerate #SeniorPupSaturday (FB: jeffreybergstedt)

a close-up photo of a white dog, named Dave, staring into the camera with his mouth slightly open. there reveals approximately five teeth shining brightly.

our final photo of Dave who is no longer looking into the camera, but is now happily leaning his head back with his eyes closed.

another close-up photo of Dave staring into the camera, but this time his tongue is covering his prized pearly whites.

As a protest optics nerd love about the inflatables is how much they visually disrupt and pull focus from the fascist shock imagery Noem & Miller are trying to create.

So many of these photos now look like the world's silliest dance party, backgrounded by a bunch of guys in uniform looking awkward

Today's #tinyjoy, because every little bit counts, is the end papers (recreating a calico print called "Sailors" from 1940-41) you can find in the Persephone Books edition of English Climate, Sylvia Townsend Warner's Wartime Stories.

Sample of red, pink, green and black striped calico: sailors, with their wide legged pants, anchors, sailboats in one stripe, alternating with a stripe showing us fish.
