Feeling moved to say:
I don't follow people back if they:
Have no bio
Look like a bot (ie no posts, no replies, no follows/following/no bio)
Racist
Maga
Semi naked
Trying to sell me something
Promoting crypto
Fund raising (I support a lot of charities, & I choose my own)

Chat GPT is proving very useful to me in deciding where to site my new Star Jasmine to give it the best chance of surviving the winter as a container specimen in North Yorkshire with our hardiness zone of 7 - 8. Yes, I could spend the afternoon trawling the RHS website, but this is easier.

Zionism is not Judaism
Christian Nationalism is not Christianity
The first ones are political & the second ones are religions.
I hope this clears it up.
Personally I’m atheist so I don’t believe in any of them BUT I respect someone’s religion if they aren’t trying to KILL people with it.

Well, the sky's a bit of a funny colour & it's been raining since the early hours, but it's fairly quiet out there in terms of wind. Maybe the BBC has been overdoing the storm warnings, (not for the first time) although there's time yet. We shall see.
