Wind in Sea Point blew out the glass panelling of the entire top floor apartment. Firemen trying to reinforce the remaining glass and window frame so that it doesn’t crash to the street.

Got a couple more Bluesky invites to share if you want them - it really seems to be taking off as X declines

[David Meyer @superglaze]

Very excited about X's incoming paywall because it will trigger my definitive break with the platform. See you on Bluesky https://t.co/sWMhp9H8vP and Mastodon https://t.co/HbB7YxceBa

Stunning

[Bayt Al Fann @BaytAlFann]

The Sultan Qaboos Mosque of Sohar in Oman is an exquisite architectural wonder. The colour of the Mosque changes, depending on the position of the sun and the time of the day, reflecting the light of the sky.
