Also, we love pet/animal pics. Here’s my cat saying ”stop with the pics” 🤣💕🤣
Has anyone here worked with the glue Beacon 3-in-1 advanced craft glue? I'm wondering how much ventilation is actually needed, as it just says "use adequate ventilation" after the flammable vapor warning. Do I need to use it outside, or just not in a small room? #CoSoCrafting
Just finished watching Episode 5 of #ThePeripheral - I can't wait until next week. I'm so happy that Gibson's work is finally getting a high-budget adaptation that is getting it right. 😊
"Nancy Pelosi is 82. She just led House Democrats to an unexpectedly good midterms outcome. Media’s first question is when she’ll retire.
Mitch McConnell is 80. He just led Senate Republicans to a humiliating defeat. Not one question about when he’ll step aside."

"Why is my CounterSocial app telling me that I have no internet connection?"
When not in use, the CounterSocial app severs your connection to our servers both for your safety and to preserve bandwidth. This often presents as a connectivity error in the app.
It will usually reconnect itself after a few moments, but if not, restarting the app usually fixes the problem. #CoSoTips
There are several House races that need people to cure their ballots asap. These races will determine control of the House. Please take some time to contact voters.

Anyone else into jigsaw puzzles? I love Ravensburger puzzles - the quality of the individual pieces is so very important. Currently working on a couple of their medium puzzles (4,000-5,000 pieces), but I hope to complete the absolutely bonkers 25,000+ piece world maps one before the heat death of the Universe.

When a #Caterpillar goes into it's #Cocoon to become a #Butterfly, it turns completely into an '#Ooze' before reforming into the butterfly. You may know that BUT....
Did you know that #scientists have proven that it RETAINS its #Memory? #Nature is weird.
