I think a collab with Pattie might have been a smarter move. 🤷‍♀️

Is America great again yet? When was the last time it was great??? Just read about the 5 year old detained by ICE. I just don’t comprehend how that happens

I’m a bit of a novice, so struggling a bit. Perhaps the drawn diagram and a video aid? I have just managed a tricky facing for buttons which, I think is done as the pattern suggested, so pretty chuffed with myself.

Surely in this day and age, sewing patterns could move on from the hand drawn illustrations on butcher’s paper!!!! 🤪 A video? Instructions with actual photographs? Not too much to ask, I don’t think.

@duolingoverde.bsky.social so, even if you get everything right you lose power and can’t do multiple lessons in one sitting. 😡

This made my day. We’ve just got season 11 in Australia. The narrator annoys me no end but I endure it for the odd interesting find.

Australian here. You’re right. I was an exchange student in the US in ‘84. Loved it. Thought about moving there. Grateful I didn’t. Won’t be visiting anytime soon, either.

Totally agree. Their build had so many little details. Cade and Henry’s build was great, but I don’t think they would have won if Brickman didn’t have a brick worth 100 votes.

#LEGOMastersAU Grand Masters of the Galaxy. I love Brickman but he got it wrong!!! Should have been Trent and Alex. Their build had so many little quirky details.

An observation: While it’s great to see the huge number of people turning up for #nokings protests, all of this could have been avoided had they turned up to vote in November. But then, I live in a country where voting is compulsory.
