🐛 If something is eating your plants, you may be doing something right!
Holes in leaves aren't always failure. They can mean your garden is feeding the food web. Caterpillars, birds, fungi and insects all play a role in a living ecosystem.
🌿 Signs of life: • Chewed leaves • Birds hunting • Flowers going to seed • Fungi breaking down fallen material • Insects sheltering in stems
Don’t ask, “Does my garden look perfect?” Ask: “Who is using it?”

This is so cool! A friend has made a donation to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library in honor of my upcoming birthday. I cannot imagine a better way to celebrate. 😃

(Via MeFi) Check this fantastic blog post about Tuscan letters (1 of 2)
It really opened my eyes to the history, evolution, breadth of motif variation, the relation to more traditional typography... Saving this for my lettering & typography class next term.

@Scalva E te lo dico io perché.
Mantenere il verde è "spesa corrente". Cementare o asfaltare è "un investimento". Dal gov Monti in poi i comuni virtuosi sono quelli che riducono la spesa corrente.
Piccola clausola neoliberista dai risultati devastanti.
Un comune che abbatte alberi per fare una colata di cemento è un comune virtuoso. Un comune che ripristina e mantiene il verde è, guarda caso, spendaccione. Se sei un comune virtuoso puoi assumere più personale.
looks like I'm taking Optus to the TIO over some billing bullshit - my NBN service was disabled/churned on the 27th of August, my card charged the full amount on the 28th and my service "cancelled" on the 30th - now they're refusing to even give a pro-rated refund when really I'm entitled to a full refund considering i couldn't use the NBN service they billed me for
We now live in a world where the actual US Secretary of Defence is fat shaming Canadian volunteer cadet instructors in front of his 2 million followers, because he thinks you cannot train 12-17-year-olds if you have a different body than Pete Hegseth.
I happen to think she is a great choice for an instructor, because unlike Pete Hegseth, she has not committed the war crime of ordering the killing of south American fishermen.
@juliegiovacchini Peut-être un rhume ? Selon mon toubib, ça dure une semaine si c'est bien soigné, huit jours sinon.
@cedesguin j'ai eu des rhumes dans ma vie et non c'est pas un rhume

1. "A relationship's job is not to make us happy. It is our job to make the relarionship happy."
2. "A relationship will also reflect the relationship you have with yourself."
3. "We have to create the conditions for joy in order to experience joy."
hello fediverse,
jour de reprise pour moi aussi... bon courage pour ce mois de septembre !
Okay, I think it's finally time I migrated to a new #BookWyrm instance. Any suggestions?
Requirements:
- Track record of good maintenance, including fairly speedy updates to the latest versions
- Not the flagship instance.
Most of the books I organize are in English and German, although there are a few Italian-language books in the mix.

It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed a hitchhiker on my shoelaces. I must have picked it up in the wildflower meadow this morning. I’m going to try rooting and growing it. 🌵👟
@s0 @abrasive @voltagex @Unixbigot @projectgus The major factor is the flux core in solder wires. Use a touch extra flux and it gets much easier.

For what it is worth, exporting from 1Password and importing into vaultwarden was painless when I did it a year or so ago for my wife.

+++ Inoffizielle Nationalhymne – 10 Jahre in den Charts: «Mr. Brightside» lässt England nicht los +++
Wie wurde ein Lied der amerikanischen Band The Killers zu einem der beliebtesten Songs Grossbritanniens?
Und? Das heißt nicht, daß das Leben damals Spaß gemacht hat.
Macht es heute mehr Spaß?!

Nobel prize winning economist spells out how "efficiency" isn't everything, and how so much of the American grocery store sector reveals market failures.
Public grocery stores aim to provide healthy, affordable food. Without distraction and misdirection from having to pay out profits to private investors.
