Same. I had it down to three after three guesses, and it was the second one I tried.

I'm going to Paris Friday! Does anyone have any tips for getting pictures of stained glass windows? I am taking my 24-120mm f/4 and 17-35mm f/2.8. Should I bring the 58mm f/1.4, too? #Photography #Paris #StainedGlass

That's a mighty fine looking pen, Cheddar! I hope you didn't put any teeth marks in it...

Judaism, Islam, and Christianity seem to be divided by belief in the same God (the God of Abraham). They just don't agree on how to worship Him.

Comicsands website is too hard to read. Too many ads, and sometimes scrolling through multiple blank pages (presumably when ads couldn't load). In short, not worth my time to click on any of their links.

Oh, God; this gave me flashbacks to elementary school in North Carolina in 1968. No signs on the water fountains, but the kids still perpetuated the segregation. 😢

...I can't continue to read about the lives of the characters. I highly recommend this trilogy, which you can borrow at your local library or purchase here: bookshop.org/p/books/rose...
Bruce Grembowski (@bruce.grembowski.com) reply parent
...for the main character, Kaaro. The books truly show how all humans are alike, no matter our location or circumstances. The "ending" of the trilogy is satisfying, but not in a typical "happily ever after" way. I'm glad to have reached the end, but sad that...

I just finished reading @tadethompson.bsky.social's Rosewater trilogy. I've really enjoyed reading science fiction that isn't American-centric! Tade has created an inventive setting populated by many diverse personalities. The characters are relatable, and I found myself feeling very empathetic...
