"Otters danced in the springs today. It was a good day."
This is Utah in case anyoneβs wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.
How can we get end of life care right?
Mark Mardell joined us at our Summit to discuss what it means to have a 'good' death and why it's so difficult to talk about dying. #NTSummit
Piles of cards on a cutting mat. They have game mechanics and learning objectives on them for use in a playful learning workshop
New packs for the MK2 Playful Learning Tour Guide. Workshop at the University of Durham tomorrow.
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde. Fearlessly showing us all what true mettle is. I hope she is protected at all costs and that the people of the USA hold this administration to account.
Thematically Iit really reminds me of some of the episodes of Moonlighting from waaaaay back in the day.
Quite a few new follows and followers these last couple of days after the depressingly familiar news about FB. I think it is important to remember we're a bunch of friendly, creative people who want a better world for all. Don't lose sight of that. Delight in your fabulous self!
Let the annual rearrangement of baubles until Mom is happy beginβ¦
Oh Iβm so glad someone else sees the magic of that π
A fake ghost is used to startle a crowd of Victorians. Illustration by John Massey Wright.
In Victorian England, telling ghost stories at Christmas was a popular tradition. The sun setting so early in December, with families generally staying inside and huddling around the fire to keep warm, created an evocative environment for spooky tales.

Give yourself permission to play.
If you can't, then I'm giving it to you now by virtue of being a voice in your head.
Trust me, we need play now more than ever to balance out the work to be done.
Iβm being whisked away for my birthday this weekend by my wondrous partner. At the tender age of 54 this is the first time in my life anyone has done this for me. Love in later life kids, itβs the best β₯οΈ #loveafter50
A girl comforts a man turned into a polar bear. Anton Lomaev's cover art for an early addition of Edith Pattou's "La Figlia del Nor."
Though werewolves are usually ravening monsters in European fairy tales, werebears are often more sympathetic. They are frequently people cursed with bear form who wander the wilderness sad and alone until someone breaks the curse, and returns them their humanity.

Finally started to take up the dahlias yesterday. Been a real dilemma in the absence of frosts. Iβve left some in the ground to face their fate. Lost a couple to gall too. But for now, I hallway full of drying tubors π€£
Unexpectedly and delightedly invited to go and see Interpol with an old friend. Itβs really made my day π

βOne of the challenges the NHS has with cyber security is that many NHS computers are still using Windows XPβ
(which was released in 2001 and stopped receiving cyber security support from Microsoft a decade ago)
πππππππ
Everyone saying βno we canβt let the NHS use a proper joined up digital patient database, itβs all part of a plot to privatise British healthcare and sell your dataβ should be forced to read the dozens (hundreds?) of case studies like these www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-...
