Have I told you about the first time I let my daughter walk alone to piano practice? She had to cross a (big-ish) street, so I told her I would walk behind her and observe. At the zebra walk my daughter, like a boss, puts out her palm to signal the oncoming driver to stop. And Björk stops her car.

When I say something stupid here I often think about just deleting the post out of embarrassment but then I always decide not to, because you know what? Even people who own exceptionally beautiful dogs can be stupid on social media. Let’s normalise it.

Agreed! Also the hanging, and the staying under water. Besides, he also didn’t seem the type to be very interested in gold/money or things that he could buy with it. But I was still very willing to suspend my disbelief and thought it was a very fun movie.

We don’t really let Uggi’s coat grow that long anymore, as it gets very matted very fast once it’s over a certain length and then the grooming takes a lot longer and can be painful and he hates it already so now he just goes every 8 weeks. But I do sometimes miss having him so fluffy!

We finally watched Sisu, the only movie I have ever heard about starring a Bedlington Terrier. And it looks so much like Uggi, when his coat grows a bit long! Uggi slept through most of it lying on my stomach, but I quite enjoyed it.

Hey, if you’ve read THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS (or any book by any author!) and liked it, please leave a review! And share your love of books with friends, family, strangers, internet randolorians, foes, nemeses, woodland creatures, cryptids, prophets, influencers, exfluencers, and filthy hobbitses.

With news of a reported settlement with Anthropic I went back to check the class action form and it now allows authors outside the US to input their address, so it may be worth adding your known pirated titles (from the LibGen pirate database) www.lieffcabraser.com/anthropic-au...

Apparently this is not the first serial pool pooper Oulu. Another was apprehended in 2018 but no arrest was made.
Hildur Knútsdóttir (@hildur.bsky.social)
Breaking from the Icelandic news: A serial public-pool pooper is still at large in Oulu. And Oulu is in Finland, but we love our public pools and therefore this has been deemed relevant to the Icelandic public by the editors.
