    Alrighty. Quick house tidy, gym maybe, but of chilling out, the practising the new songs.

    Next weekend is birthday weekend, so happy to have a chill one tonight.

    Edit: Some uber drivers shouldn’t have licenses, seriously. Hopefully I won’t need them soon.

    Just back from a lovely walk with my kid. We got to pat 2 very friendly cats, one of which climbed into his lap when he sat down to get closer to it. The other one was called Bruce.

    It’s reignited the ‘should we get another pet’ conversation, but can’t decide cat vs dog

      It depends on your family and the dog but dogs are lovely. 💖

        Yeah, I’m a bit keen on a dog and it would be nice getting out for more walks. It would be left alone a bit with us going to work though, and cats are more self-sufficient. So hard to choose!

    Camping gear has now been mostly sorted - there are a couple of tubs of stuff like cooking gear that will need to be sorted out to either donate or throw out, but all the bigger bits I intend to sell have been photographed. Now I need to do the listings and cross my fingers.

    Things I really really learnt this week.

    Most people are average. After watching Shadow of a Doubt for the umpteenth time I see that Charlie, who is constantly watching the world around her and looking at people and tries to make sense of it is the exception. Her mom, who is a sweet mom and not stupid, just average, sees the same facts but can’t add it all up.

    And I see now that Germans in the 30s really did believe the Blood Libel and other lies. They really did believe the lies that Jews were committing genocide, tho they didn’t use the word genocide as that word hadn’t been coined yet. It took decades of small lies that people were just not smart enough to discredit, see above. I used to think they didn’t believe but because they were prejudiced they went along with it. They really believed because they thought they had facts and they thought it was the right thing to do. They believed the people in authority.

    And no, teaching how to analyse won’t work. They just can’t do it.

      Oooh can we have a scam counter? Like, the ratio of scam calls? All in the name of science of course. So far is 2/2 as per your post.
      EDIT: don’t if it’s too much like work though.
