This is Albie. He was so touched by his family singing happy birthday in his native language that he didn't notice the cupcakes with his face on them. 13/10 hbd Albie #SeniorPupSaturday (TT: _sallyv)

My photo shows a museum display with colourful Minoan pottery cups arranged on three clear shelves, one above the other. These cups, known as Kamares Ware, are from Phaistos, Crete. They were made in palace workshops, c. 1800-1700 BC. The cups range in shape and size from conic and cylindrical cups (top and middle shelves) to hemispherical and carinated shaped cups (bottom shelf). They are decorated with multi-coloured geometric motifs; with spirals and swirls painted in red and white pigment on black.

Sipping my coffee โ˜•๏ธ and thinking about these marvellous Minoan cups!

They look so modern itโ€™s incredible to think they were made during the Bronze Age some 3,800 years ago!

In the 1950s London Transport published booklets with the aim of encouraging people to get out and explore the city. and to โ€œMake the most of your public transportโ€. The one on Christopher Wren is explored in my post at alondoninheritance.com/london-churc...

So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and theyโ€™re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was โ€œyour piano is too close to the fireplace, youโ€™ll dry it outโ€ and if thatโ€™s not the internet in a nutshell I donโ€™t know what is.

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.

Migration is part of what makes this country great.

We're not an island of strangers - we're an island of neighbours.

The Green Party will always support fair & managed migration.

It would have been so easy, and probably expected, for Radcliffe to become a monster, or just another washed up and abandonded child star, but he really seems like one of the best people on the planet.

If I was @zackpolanski.bsky.social, I would be pointing out to the BBC that whatever model they use to justify giving Farage & his boot-lickers season tickets for every BBC show under the sun must surely now treat Green Party politicians in exactly the same way. Might even be one for the lawyers...
