some of the things I have been looking at, in interstices--

[kaberett]

• Teal cakes, via azurelunatic
  
• a cardamom bun recipe I want to get around to trying
  
• "Kitten-sized extinct 'lion'"
  
• Geoscience Australia partners with Google to showcase Australia's natural history (thank you to elizabeth_fitz for bringing this to my attention!)
  
• The importance of being disabled, a Graun article by James Beddard, who me_and and I saw in Threepenny Opera last weekend; I was initially dubious about Wheelchair Use On Stage (not least because last time I saw it and it wasn't me it was in Wicked; and in this instance, people were swapping around who was using the chair, but... yeah, no, disabled actor playing a role in the National Theatre)
  
• UK Border Control being unsurprisingly but still terribly awful, on which topic I really need to work out a phrasing to write to my MP, for all the good it will do
  
• Who, if not you? is a guide on addressing racist abuse/violence in public, which I have seen linked around a fair bit in the aftermath of the Brexit vote.

Good to see more signal-boosting for the "Who, if not you?" page. That's very, very good advice on effective intervention.

In other news, I am taking today quietly.

I need to... actually sit and read it.

Belated happy birthday; sorry I didn't make it out, and I was thinking of you. <3

Sorry you could't make it...

There were Limericks. Tasteful, lyrical, and only a little bit obscene.

Some other time?
