@vickytnz very much enjoyed your post here vickyteinaki.com/blog/respon… but I think you’ve got the squirrel metaphor the wrong way round. Greys are the ‘new’ species killing our resident reds.

Which reminds me of the ironically named redsquirrelbooks.com (publishers of Life in the UK study guides) set up by a talented (grey squirrel) Kiwi founder!

spent a couple evenings making pickthe.date – a simple way to find a time that works for a group of people (and a shameless whenshouldwe.com clone updated for the modern web). Built @vercel kv, @sveltejs + @tailwindcss

Since 2019 I’ve been in an expensive, stressful legal battle to protect Webcomic Name (my “oh no” comics). It’s a relief to finally talk about this publicly! I’m launching a crowdfunder to pay my remaining legal fees to end this. 1/8 gofund.me/7478032b

Meh, seems somehow to work fine, despite looking utterly broken and spammy.

It’s been 1.5 months since I started my new job. Prob the most common advice I’ve received is to “don’t be afraid to ask basic Qs”. Looking back, I’d add “and ask the same Q to more than one person”. Bc the difference in answers became the doorway to my product work.

@Natures_Voice Any advice for how we might care for some jay chicks that we found on the floor? Parents nowhere to be seen so we’ve taken them in. How much should we feed them per day? Thanks in advance (ps we can’t get to a vet for a few days at least)

@natures_voice Not to worry. We found a sanctuary that we can get to. Taking them there now. 🤞 we can visit when they’re older. Bye little ones 👋

pps we read to feed them fruit and worms and wondered if some egg might be a smart idea also? And we’re not using tweezers anymore. Felt too risky that they might poke and hurt them

I don’t talk too much about my mental health. I was diagnosed at 17 as “clinically depressed” after a suicide attempt ( sadly the first of many ) clearly and obviously I was shit at suicide and thus you have to endure me.

While I'm here, randomly reminiscing, the tunes and effects of Paperboy on C64 were so good youtube.com/watch?v=GMl5W4NN… Must have heard days and days worth of this.
