Last thought before attempting to go to bed: if Americans are willing to reelect Trump after everything he’s said in the past three months, there’s nothing Harris could’ve done.

In the coming days there's gonna be a lot of opining about what the Harris campaign did wrong, but this election was not an indictment of Kamala Harris. It was an indictment of America.

#OnThisDay 1984: The final episode of children's classic Rentaghost aired. You never knew where they were going to pop up, but we discovered them on the Breakfast Time and Saturday Superstore sofas. Interviewed are Molly Weir, Michael Staniforth and Ann Emery.

Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing. The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos. 1/ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

A few more weeks before I go back to Tasmania, so trying my hand again at #thewinter10 wildflowerhour. Here's a hotchpotch of ten plus two from Perthshire, Fife, and Lochaber this week: a couple from not far from the bealach of Munro Stob Bàn. #wildflowerhour

Probably my final #FungiFriday on this site, which I'm finding increasingly bad for my mental health. These beauties are from our old home in Blairgowrie last week! If you can, please come join me (Alex Scott Fairley) on the place that sounds like the Irving Berlin song. #fungi

Good Lord. The scheduled times on #bus timetables in the UK are really just more of a serving suggestion, aren't they? #buses #publictransport

I don't know, South Bank London, but I do know my eyes were on this rotten grammatical faux pas this morning!

Probably my last #wildflowerhour posting here, with a #winter10, before I switch completely to the Irving Berlin place! A slight hotchpotch from Scotland, Surrey, Sussex, and London! wildflowerhour
