A Canadian man who had two rats as pets learned that letting them drive a miniature car reduced their levels of stress, so he gave them an electric miniature car and taught them to drive. [📹 emperorsofmischief]

Since upgrading to iOS 27, I get this error when my location-based automation runs on both my phone and my watch. Any ideas what I’ve done wrong or how to fix this?

On the lookout for a new Mastodon App. Mona has gone full subscription and Ivory (my old standby) is also subscription. I would like to get an app that is not subscription. I have no issues paying when I am ready to upgrade, but not a subscription. Running on the Apple ecosystem. #mastodonApp

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com

Image: In a childrens library, a small boy contentedly reads a small picture book, while an angry-looking small girl storms past, carrying a very heavy book.

Caption:
Unfortunately for Charlotte, the adjudication committee decides that, for the purposes of the under-nines summer reading challenge, the six volumes of proust's 'in search of lost time' is considered to be one single narrative, whereas each of Roger hargreaves' mister men' books is a distinct work, thereby awarding the library's 'top reader' sticker to her brother Toby.
