Mid-century Modernist teacups by Figgjo Norway.

These are so quirky and playful. They used to be somewhat abundant. So, people thought nothing of passing them onto secondhand stores. Like many things from that era, this is changing. I may be forced to collect something else! But really, I don't need lots of things. These in particular make me happy.

They remind me of the country teaparties my mother used to hold. The young ladies attending might have been living on farms, but they knew how to dress up with hats, gloves, and beautiful dresses! I was usually situated on the floor between my mother and the coffee table.

@Susan ✶✶✶✶ Sending gentle hugs. I hate colonoscopies. I hear they don't make people fast so much these days. That would be one small win.

I wish they would allow us to filter incels, the whole "anti woke" white supremacist gamergate and adyacent BS too.

I wonder how that will affect the rating thresholds - whether it will be harder to get mostly or overwhelmingly positive due to that

in reply to Palm Oil Detectives

Bearcat (or Uniden Bearcat) is also a popular brand name of radio scanner (which these days is made in Viet Nam, at least mine is - I wonder if that is why Uniden picked the name?)

Useful to listen to what is happening with ships and boats (both fishing boats and large vessels) if you live near the sea on marine VHF/UHF band, as well as aircrafts and some other services (although not the Emergency Services in many countries, as they have moved towards digital and encrypted transmissions)

Lee-noos is the original native version.
Lai-noos is the basterdized americanized version.

I respect the original version, just like respectful Americans respect terms like Baja desert (Baha), or bourgeoisie.

I have a rhetorical question. If you were to join an activity group on a Sunday (something like chess or knitting club--it doesn't matter), what hours would be most convenient to you? Would six, seven, or eight pm work for you, or would you find these too late on the evening before a work day?

Asking for a friend... XD

in reply to Muse

@Rod Mesa I also was reading KJV and British fiction as a kid. I read even more British fiction when I was working on my degree in English! I started out using British spellings, then realised I was posturing. Many of the people in my classes were posturing. We were all trying to look like the ones with taste, culture, and status. We were buying into hierarchy--what the US was trying to escape by dumping a British king.

So, I started to weed out my pretentions. Then I moved to Australia. LOL! Now I am expected to write using British English. Mind you Australians are confused about who they are and how they should use their language. Here we have a British way of writing things, a US way of writing things because our newspapers leaned into that, and an Australian way enshrined in government publication manuals. So long as I am working in publishing I have to know all three. However, whatever I choose I am wrong, because I am a stupid American! Bigotry is as bad as posturing.

in reply to Muse

Yeah, grade school disabused me of a lot of Britishsims. Junior high, which is now called Middle School, (talk about pretentious,) weeded out any remaining usage while exposing me to various regional dialects which are far more colorful than standard American English.

...and, you already lost me.

I don't know why people like to overcomplicate this. ssh/sftp gets the job done securely, or if you don't need the encryption overhead, standard ftp or smb also get the job done. Total Commander on Android supports all of these file transfer methods. Unless you manage to develop a protocol that smashes poor WLAN transfer speeds, we don't really need to clog our systems with more new competing standards.
