As a Swede (yes, 99% of my furniture is IKEA) and a Skyrim player this is probably the best and most important news ever 😂 www.ikea.com/ie/en/cat/ka...
A Skyrim screenshot overlooking an open landscape. Mountains are showing far away, and a dragon is flying in the sky. In the foreground stands an IKEA Kallax shelf system wearing a dragonborn helmet.

Having a cat is a wonderful thing. Cuddles. Meows. Smelling your way through the house for hours only to find a dead mouse jammed so deeply in to your vacuum you have to disassemble it to get the carcass out while franticly trying to not throw up from the smell of rotten flesh. A wonderful thing.

It appears #VSCode can only have 477 simultaneous red twigglys before it just stops - at least in debug mode for an extension I'm working on. I wonder if it's a secret setting somewhere..

Q: how many days of the week have boobs in it

A: Only two days of the week have "boobs" (the letters b-o-o-b) in their name:
• Tuesboosday
• Sboosday
If you'd like, we can look into other fun wordplays, look up the origins of calendar day names, or explore something completely different. How would you like to proceed?
