What is one of your best rainy day memories?

My Cousin Sarah and I got to stay at our Great Grandma's house together, and it was raining, and she told us we didn't have to be cooped up, we could go play in the rain. This was very exciting, because it's not something our parents would have gone for. So we twirled around and leapt in puddles and licked raindrops off rose petals. When we were done our Gran put us in a hot bath, and made us hot tea and treats. She brought out a big bag of costume jewelry and let us go through it, we tried everything on, and thought we were very fancy, and she let us keep our favorite ones.

You’re A Bathmat, Mr. Grinch

Food allergies in China:

Mind you this is any allergy, not life threatening allergy.

Look at that 0.34%. That because kid who has problems with peanuts gets his face rubbed in peanut butter by Laolao and slapped until he is over it.

Allergy is cultivated by avoidance.

Apple isn't "sharing" whether its own iCloud and App Store properties support logins using passkeys. This is just another example of the company's culture of Howard Hughesesque paranoia and lack of transparency that needlessly inconveniences its customers.

I have been unable to get passkeys to work on either. Does anybody know definitively what the status is?

I only use .com for my personal domains because the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871 turned people into corporations.

Germany's eROSITA X-ray instrument released a new all-sky survey, revealing the location of about 900,000 individual soft X-ray sources. Unfortunately, eROSITA is an experiment flying on the Russian Spectrum-RG satellite, so controllers decided to shut down the experiment when Russia invited Ukraine. In just six months, the instrument detected more X-ray sources than had been discovered in all astronomy, including black holes, stars, galaxies, and exotic objects.

#ThrowbackThursday

#Dunvegan woods are full of colour and pattern in the #winter. They are also very atmospheric and an absolute pleasure to walk through. I rarely meet another soul there; even in the high tourist season. I have taken #photographs there at every season. I have no particular favourite. It’s the quality of the light and the place that makes it special anytime.
