Am watching a program where a British man is learning about his Grandfather who was a customs official in Nigeria.

British men who went to Nigeria for govt/business during the colonial period were not allowed to bring their wives and children because the children might form friendships with Nigerian children. Revolting.

I assume that was true for other African colonies as well.

Thanks CoSo for letting me add my 2 cents to your posts and boosting all those cat pics ๐Ÿคฃ

@gemswinc Iโ€™d like to see a snake operating a touch screen. A lot of bopping with the nose.

I'd try posting this on Xitter, but it's all foul over there now.

My brother is missing in Flint Michigan. I'm in North Carolina. He has no phone, all his things are in his car which was towed. If anyone can help spread the word, message me and I'll give you the details and my contact info. Thanks.

My favourite chair that I work/write/read in quickly became Strudelโ€™s favourite chair, aka the Worldโ€™s Most Expensive Dog Bed.
So we โ€œshareโ€ it.

@holon42 Yes. I need to never forget where Iโ€™ve been, what Iโ€™ve done. Not live in it, but remember. Iโ€™m definitely not a superior enlightened being.

@holon42 Perhaps I should say โ€œsome more obviously than others.โ€

This lovely dress was designed by
Austrian born American designer Sadie Nemser, (1886-1966). It's from the late 1920s and called "Secret Garden". It's an exemplary transition piece, with a lot of the 20s in it, but moving toward the length and sweep of gowns of the 30s.
