Samsung has rolled out a software update to its smart fridges that will display ads, despite saying they had "no plans" to do so. We're headed for a future where you will have to pay extra for appliances without ads.

Good almost afternoon lovely Friendos 💜

I've just been boosting some... I want to write for my blog a bit, so I guess I should just do it. Around 13:30 I wanna walk with the galls again, and feed them after that.

I had less than 4 hours of sleep last night (by my own doing), so I am really hoping that tonight, I can catch up a bit (and that there will be no barks from the galls to wake me up... 🤞🏻).

Alright, let's get my laptop and try to write a bit for my blog. Catch you later!

🧚🏼‍♀️ 💜 🍀 🐾

Cartoon by Sophie Labelle. Een jonge vrouw met bruin haar heeft haar armen over elkaar. Achter haar armen is nog net zichtbaar dat ze een Antifa t-shirt aan heeft. Ze kijkt cynisch nadenkend en zegt: "De regering zal je niet vertellen dat ze uit fascisten bestaat, maar ze vertelt je wel dat antifascisten haar vijand zijn.

Volkomen terecht toch? Antifascisten zijn terroristen, ze zijn bereid om vredelievende dictators aan te vallen. En ze hebben een lange historie, kijk maar naar 6 juni 1944 👇🏼

This one's from April in La Guardia de Jaén, Andalusia- videos.trom.tf/w/fwAQqRhVcE3tc…

A very pretty little village with great views and a nice motorhome parking area with free services. The only problem was that a group of men sang loud flamenco music right next to our motorhome as we tried to sleep 😄 So we left to a parking area near the Peñarroya Castle. Made a cheesecake and had a nice time there 🙂

Jerry Greenfield has resigned from Ben & Jerry's with great sadness

The breaking of a promise of independence that allowed Ben & Jerry's to pursue peace and social justice issues has caused Jerry to leave the company in sadness.

To the Ben & Jerry's Community: It is with a broken heart that I have decided I can no longer, in good conscience, and after 47 years, remain an employee of Ben & Jerry's. I am resigning from the company Ben and I started back in 1978. This is one of the hardest and most painful decisions I've ever made. It isn't because I've lost my love for the people at Ben & Jerry's. Quite the opposite. The folks who show up every day in our factories, scoop shops, and offices are some of the most passionate, caring, and values-driven people you'll ever meet. They are the soul of Ben & Jerry's. What has made their work so important to me, and what allowed the company to be more than just an ice cream company, was the independence to pursue our values, which was guaranteed when Unilever bought the company. For more than twenty years under their ownership, Ben & Jerry's stood up and spoke out in support of peace, justice and human rights, not as abstract concepts, but in relation to real events happening in our world. That independence existed in no small part because of the unique merger agreement Ben and I negotiated with Unilever, one that enshrined our social mission and values in the company's governance structure in perpetuity. It's profoundly disappointing to come to the conclusion that that independence, the very basis of our sale to Unilever, is gone. And it's happening at a time when our country's current administration is attacking civil rights, voting rights, the rights of immigrants, women, and the LGBTQ community. Standing up for the values of justice, equity, and our shared humanity has never been more important, and yet Ben & Jerry's has been silenced, sidelined for fear of upsetting those in power. It's easy to stand up and speak out when there's nothing at risk. The real test of values is when the times are challenging and you have something to lose. Love, equity, justice. They're part of who Ben and I are and they've always been the true foundation of Ben & Jerry's. From the very beginning Ben and I believed that our values and the pursuit of justice were more important than the company itself. If the company couldn't stand up for the things we believed, then it wasn't worth being a company at all. It was always about more than just ice cream; it was a way to spread love and invite others into the fight for equity, justice and a better world. Coming to the conclusion that this is no longer possible at Ben & Jerry's meanss I can no longer remain part of Ben & Jerry's. If I can't carry those values forward inside the company today, then I will carrry them forward outside, with all the love and conviction I can. With love, Jerry

On my walk around the local nature reserve this morning, I saw a lot of wind fallen pears, I was going to call them crab pears, but apparently crab pears are very similar in looks to crab apples.
I didn't pick any of the windfalls up, as they are very hard and bitter to taste (tried this a couple of years ago!)
