Apparently, I now have my own QR code! Point your phone at it & it takes you to MY BOOK. No idea how. No mice inside. Disappointing. 🙄 Could you give it a little share & help more people discover me? The FC calls it word of mouth. I prefer word of MEOWTH. 😹🧡🐾

@grumpygirdle.bsky.social Hi, I just wanted to say goodbye because I had a very upsetting experience on here yesterday and will be deleting my account soon. I think I am now done with social media sadly. 😿😿😿

Dear All, Sadly I have had a very unpleasant interaction on Bluesky today & I vowed that I would not tolerate this behaviour again (often encountered on Twitter/X) so I have decided to leave & delete my account. Bluesky moderation is not what I expect it to be. I may take some time to think. 😿😿😿

What does the delayed US State Department say about Israel? Not a lot, it seems. UK is lambasted for "criminalising silent prayer" whatever that is, but the section on Israel is much shorter than last year’s and somehow fails to mention the deliberate starvation or the 60,000 violent Gaza deaths.

Matteo is a brown tabby whose owner moved house and left him behind, outside what used to be his home. He was skinny and sad. He is now, as you can see from this photo of his feet and belly visible from the outside window of his new home, both fairly chonky and extremely happy.
