There were two bees around the heather when I let the dog out. Dog goes after one of the bees, while one bee stays at heather collecting nector. Bee then angrily nudges me on my arm after finishing with the heather. Dog attacks bee, bee's friend is angry and takes it out on me... Who ever doubts that insects have intelligence has not spent a lot of time watching bees.

The dog has always been a menace around bees, even though we tell him not to do it in case he gets stung.

Really, Adidas? It's not the fans' fault it's yours for approving the crappy design. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-68708981

It makes the Ing-gal-land strip fiasco look like naught...

Now that the weather is getting more predictable, I am starting to sort out the room that I hope will be the craft room.
I dislike it when a person from a marginalized group self-flagellate themselves, or other people that are members of that group - like Georgia Man on Radio 3 commenting on a female composer 'composing like a man'.

And I also wonder about the impact it has on their family and whether they are fed up of their loved one's obsession....

Folks think diabetes is my real health problem, but it's not. It's the low mood because that controls how I deal with the diabetes and when it's off, I don't manage it properly.
People who start panic over witchcraft will be disappointed to know that most of the time, all witches and pagans do is do embroidery, collect pine cones, brew herbal teas, burn a few candles, write in notebooks and make paintings....

Perhaps it's the cake baking, bell hanging and crochet work that gets their knickers in a twist.

One of the things I find terrible for modern fantasy writing is the use of the first person narrative. Very few writers can pull it off without making their main protagonist sound like a whiny kid from a badly written, directed and acted US Teen sit-com. I don't even know how such books retain the interest of the reader, let alone get great reviews. Also, in the age of AI, how can you tell if it's done by AI, or if

a human author is really that bad at writing.

spiders are tricky devils when it comes to decorating - they always think it's Halloween... (aka spiders have been making webs in the house again...)
