🇧🇷 Brazil’s President Lula is defending his visit to Putin at the Victory Parade. He says Brazil is still all about peace and that the trip doesn’t go against the country’s official position on the war in Ukraine. Lula thinks it was part of his effort to strengthen global ties and try to act as a mediator in peace talks between Russia and Ukraine.

It's a plant photography thread! Some of the photos from yesterday's trip to the botanical gardens, which I enjoyed. I'm going to be typing out the Alt Text for about eleven million years, slightly sleep deprived, so chances are it's going to be a bit interesting! 😂

One of the purchases I made from the toy fair today, an electronic "I choose you, Pikachu!" toy, originally released by Hasbro in 1998.
I purchased it very cheaply at just £8, knowing it very likely didn't work. Sadly, while it didn't light up or move, it does still make noise!

💾 Data Processing Existentialism 💾
there's a certain feeling which occurs, when calmly scripting an EXIF metadata analysis function, and a sanity-test loop returns an array with one photo's 'date_created' field set all the way back in 2016, and you suddenly think...
holy fuckin hell it's been nearly a decade?!
nine years and nine pounds, no more straightening my hair, no more size four, but that's life. getting older is never anything new, and I felt similarly the prior decade before. all throughout there's rarely been a dull moment, but nine years ago was just before the neuro-endocrine functions changed, before Tokyo, Fiji, Costa Rica, Victoria, and so very many places in-between.
I shared an introduction on social media, twitter and mastodon a few months apart in 2022, discussing whether I'd make it to this year, whether my diagnosis would find resolve. I really didn't know how any of it would turn out, didn't live with expectations or engage with hope; and so this year when treatment finally completed — after all of the trials and scans and tests — it's done. finally, finally done.
I don't have to worry about those things anymore, which is a beautiful thing, and an entirely new spectrum of emotion that's impossible to convey. now life can return to normal, however that's defined going forward. 💝

China and US agree 90-day pause to trade war initiated by Donald Trump
Countries to lower reciprocal tariffs by 115% as US treasury secretary says ‘neither side wants a decoupling’
China and the US have agreed a 90-day pause to the deepening trade war that has threatened to upend the global economy, with reciprocal tariffs to be lowered by 115%.
The 90-day lowering of tariffs applies to the duties announced by Donald Trump on 2 April, which ultimately escalated to 125% on Chinese imports, with Beijing responding with equivalent measures.
China also imposed non-tariff measures, such as restricting the export of critical minerals that are essential to US manufacturing of hi-tech goods.
Panic? The resilient, even-keeled Capitals aren’t ready to go there.
