I build apps and knit and crochet and read books and sew. Not necessarily in that order. I also like board games and chocolate. why-not-smile.blogspot.com Belfast, Northern Ireland Joined April 2011

These infographics don’t work on me because my takeaway is always that 17 donuts isn’t as bad as I thought

Jesus did not call his followers to defend Christianity; he called them to defend the poor, the marginalized, the oppressed, and the hurting. Stop wasting time being offended. Get to feeding, and healing, and peace making.

I liked one tweet that was in French, so now Twitter thinks I speak French and I want my entire timeline to be in French 🤦🏼‍♀️

7yo has been staring intently at the #Olympic opening ceremony for 5 minutes, and suddenly asked “why are we just watching people coming?”

Surely Politics 101 is “Don’t hang around with a blank space”? Who’s running this campaign?

Andy Murray might well be coming towards the end of his career and while many are sharing their favourite memories such as Wimbledon titles, the year end number 1 ranking and Olympic medals, I'd like to give a little shoutout to the work of art that is this video. Perfection.

Very “on brand” for the UK that we filled the potholes with sand so that the big gold coach could drive over them.
