Had to laugh. Back up to the small pony paddock to join the others now, marched along by the forelock. He’s such a stinker

Let’s play Where’s Simon. I did 3 long circuits of the large fields, the 3 smaller ones, checked that he hadn’t snuck in with the others and I’d missed him. Rang husband. Worried he was collapsed somewhere or stolen. Then it turns out he exactly matches the browning dockweed and dry grass. 🙄

And of course, the AIs did not 'go rogue' -- the AI code utilised its programmed ability to look for vulnerabilities.

Why yes, I did buy the novelty share (haha no) pack of Haribo soccer sours

Seriously?

Nearly 20 years old now but thought you’d like to see one of my pair of NTT DoCoMo emoji his and hers teacups. Japan pioneered text emoji and on this press trip I was amazed by the emoji mania & what they all meant as we were mainly doing basic smily face ascii stuff in the EU & US

The softest spot for a cavalier, a Pyrenean mountain dog/Great Pyrenees tail

Now THIS is the way you celebrate the Fourth of July while in Scotland! Best ever Dine ‘n’ Drag dinner with the fabulous Divine Tension and Jo Mama (plus husband!)

But we want to be on the other side, with you

Ditto for the big white floofs here surrounded by small dog detritus but cold patio stone is attractive right now as the day warms. They say solidarity to Milo

Hudson is now ready for interplanetary travel

My life could have been completely different had I only understood that if I’d bought this 1963 book for $1, I would have learned ‘HOW TO BECOME AMERICA’S BEST-DRESSED WOMAN’

Moving my mother to a new apartment and clearing out endless amounts of stuff and got this little trip down tech memory lane

Oh ouch! Doonesbury on form today

San Francisco Chronicle this morning. Such an own goal by FIFA and the US, abetted by the Trump admin b/c who wants to come to the US right now and risk ICE? Story notes AirBnB hosts have not seen the promised boom in pricy bookings (or any related to the World Cup).

Enjoying the idea of some passengers losing their mind when they see this on all the entry doors at Dublin Airport. People were taking pictures outside (like, er me)

Made more confusing by two who dropped out still being on the ballot. After long consideration, I went for the top D woman. Voting like this seems pretty silly -- why not opt for the Irish system of a single transferrable vote if you're going to do this hot ballot mess instead of party primaries

Finn the Pyrenean Mountain Dog with some of his fans this evening

Dani & Stella: I met this absolutely lovely & gentle pair of pals today at the Dublin Dog Hub, hoping to find a new home together. There are more dogs there for viewing than are on the website including a beautiful Great Dane. Open all bank holiday weekend too! www.dublindoghub.ie#site_content

hahaha that didn't take long for the Talarico campaign to add new merch

Can’t beat the Gaiety! Tenor Rolando Villazon, mezzo Paula Murrihy and soprano Ava Dodd filling our ears tonight in this beautiful historic theatre alongside the Irish National Opera orchestra

Hudson knows the softest bed is a Pyrenean Mountain Dog (Great Pyrenees) tail

Oh dear

It’s all very well stacking hay until you get to the wonky oversized misshapen bales and then stacking Tetris grinds to a halt

New Yorker daily cartoon yesterday

I’m a big fan of Arab biscuits, especially date-filled maamoul, and these (a gift from a Syrian friend) are especially delicious I think and hey, they have ‘The Title of Gold in The World of Sweets’ and who am I to argue?

He has no problem flicking open baby gates inside the house with his nose, and opening any door with a lever-type handle. He is frustratingly hilarious. (He also likes to sleep on top of the coffee table. Or even a footstool, which was a tight fit)

Latest on this guy. After two days of recovery he ended up at our emergency vets on Sunday evening looking like he had severe abdominal pain. A couple of hours and a lot of tests later and after some serious worry, turns out the meds he was given Friday upset his stomach. Simultaneously 🙄😵‍💫 & 😮‍💨 🥳 💃
