Honestly thought I'd never hear the word "usborne" again. My mom used to live and breathe that company, and while I certainly don't regret a fair chunk, I do find it amusing as I look back now. I legitimately thought it had fallen off faster than Juice+.
In reference to a post where i mention my kid has the usborne “see inside germs” book.
So if people don’t know, usborne is a weird publishing company that has done indispensable books for British children for generations; they’re in every library, school and nursery, and have shelves devoted to them in every bookstore. They are how many people learned to read, and are the originators of many hyper focuses. They’re famed for doing educational lift the flap books for all ages, like “see inside your body”, as well as as the ubiquitous touch-and-feel series, “that’s not my….” In which a mouse comments improbably on various creatures not being their creature. “That’s not my dragon,” the mouse says, inviting you to stroke a dragon with a patch of fur on it, “its tummy is too soft. That’s not my dragon,” on the next page, where the dragon’s ears are lined with textured paper, “its ears are too bumpy.” This seems like such an inefficient way to find one’s missing dragon, a fact that simmers underneath you through endless repetition. Why does the mouse own so many things (pirates, ducks, polar bears) and why is it interrogating other people’s pirates etc by feeling their legs.
At any rate, turn a parents’ house upside down and these books fall out.
Which is why it’s completely hilarious that they are also an MLM.
Well. Kind of. In the old school sense. It’s less about signing up a pyramid scheme and more about getting a random citizen to buy a crate of perfectly popular books and try to sell them on from their home. It’s very traditional for Mums On Maternity Leave to do this. Pre-social media and online ordering, they’d hook up other mums at toddler group. Today, they post awkwardly on social media. The idea is that buying from another parent is cheaper than the bookstore, and they get to keep the markup. They get intense about things, and I believe they attend conferences. Nobody makes a huge amount of money and it’s unclear how undercutting local bookstores is helpful; it’s also basically the same RRP as Amazon I think.
And the books are perfectly respectable and sell perfectly well in bookstores.
So. Like. This marketing scheme is completely weird. Why?? Why does it still exist? People buy the books normally! You don’t need to promote them aggressively! You don’t need elaborate independent local middlemen schemes! You can just buy them! I have never understood this. I just file it under one of those weird mat leave hustles.
But don’t worry OP. They’re still going. They’ll never stop. The thing is that your mom got bored and online sales probably ate whatever residual profit margins were left and it’s probably very liberating for everyone to grow out of the “that’s not my cow” stage, but Usborne books are going strong.

This Place is Not a Home
Tommy meets Puffy, and a deal is made between the two. In exchange for shelter and protection, Tommy will need to do a little farm work.
CW: Religious themes, religious trauma
crossposted to ao3 || Ch 2 || Ch 3 || Ch 4
~+~
Ch 3: A Promising Deal
When Tommy awoke, it was a slow process. He was warm for once, the midnight chill never once reaching where he laid. There was something messing with his hair, he noticed with a blink, tugging on matted curls. It was wet, but gentle, and strange deep breaths moved the strands. It was strange, the soft interaction. He wasn't used to it, but he wasn't going to complain.
He made himself comfortable in the warm atmosphere, so comfortable he was content to let himself fall asleep again, huffing as he turned to bury himself against the hot-running body next to him, small form curling underneath the cover of his wings. Tommy wasn’t sure how much time passed. It could have been twenty minutes or hours, Tommy didn't care. All that mattered was the warmth surrounding him and the noises of strange animals lulling him to sleep.
The next time Tommy wakes, it’s to the animals excited snorts and calls as the wooden door opens, sunlight close to blinding him from where he was hidden. “Good morning you absolute menaces,” a voice greeted the animals. Based on the sound of something being poured and the ruckus as animals either rushed to eat or went to graze somewhere else—probably the meadow based on the sounds of gates being open, Tommy was able to clue in it was feeding time.
Despite this, the animal that was keeping Tommy hidden refused to get up, choosing to shuffle around as Tommy stayed tensed. Tommy prayed that the animal was big enough that he wouldn’t be noticed, or that maybe the owner wouldn’t question why its creature was still laying down.
Tommy couldn’t afford to be found. It would resort to disaster; he could be captured and treated as a pet but live in a cruel and inhumane cage, he could be sent to the government to be experimented on, he could be sold through the black market, he could be killed—or worse, his wings…his precious wings, despite their damage, could be taken away from him. After all, fallen or not, banished or adored– an angel's wings would cost a fortune. If not for the proof of the existence of divine and mystical beings, then for their magical properties they might still possess.
All these possibilities were Hell to be waiting, but the last one terrified Tommy for there was no predicting what it would mean for him. Best case scenario, he would be put in a cage while the human took his feathers and sold them for millions. Maybe it would blend in with the exotic pet road, maybe he would be treated like a circus animal, put on display and forced to perform tricks. Worst case scenario, he’s killed and has his wings stolen from him.
He couldn't afford to be found, and so he stayed curled against the animal, shuffling bedding over him, hoping the noise was muffled over the animal's noises. He stayed silent, and still. He watched as a woman moved about, grabbing buckets and a shovel, greeting animals and caring for them.
When she approached the stall he was in, he heard her let out a fond breath, “you still sleeping Duffle?” Tommy didn't dare to breathe, hoping that if he stayed low, she would pass him off as just a simple strange lump made by the animal.
But then there was a gasp, sharper this time, and he froze as she banished the shovel as a weapon. “What do you think you’re doing,” she demanded. He couldn't move, couldn't speak. All he could do was watch as the animal–a cow– got up, and nuzzled his head, a soft moo making the women hesitate her approach.
“Oh,” she mumbled. “Oh, I see.” She slowly approached him now, gently rushing the bedding off until she could make eye contact with him. He didn't move as her eyes swapped over his face, studying him for something . Her eyes raked over to his wings, and he tensed even more, not knowing what to expect. He couldn't run, he was already done and she was looming over him, and the entrance was too far. He could fight, but in his weakened state…
Before he could panic more, she stepped back, and sat down in front of him. The shovel was tossed aside, and she had her hands facing Tommy, palms upright and flat. She was trying to seem less of a threat, and Tommy’s head titled in confusion.
“I’m not going to hurt you,” she promised. “I know that’s hard to believe, but I'm not. How about we go inside, yeah?” Tommy knew he couldn't say no, he wasn't in a position to protest. He nodded reluctantly, and followed her to the house he saw earlier, wings poofed and fluttering the whole time.
(He noticed her questioning stares. Despite knowing the risks of having them out in the open, he couldn't…he didn't really care. He was so tired, and he didn't feel like fighting anymore. If she took his wings, then that just a sign that Tommy never was redeemable, not anymore.)
=+=
The lady led him to her living room, a small beige room whose space was taken up by the couches and boxes and bags scattered about, pictures here and there with books. There was a yellow carpet with orange designs, it reminded him of the sun.
With a mutter, she said she was going to be back with something called hot chocolate. Tommy watched her leave before roaming his eyes around the room, at one point eyeing the picture frames. From where he was sitting, the window casted a glare that made it hard to distinguish what was in the photos, but whoever was in it must be loved. There were a lot of photos, and Tommy vaguely remembers from his past life how much he loved photos for the reason that they would capture joyous moments with those he called family.
(Tommy wondered if the woman had a scrapbook, full of little moments with her animals and those she loves. She looked like the type to keep one.)
His train of thought was interrupted as the women came back into the living room, handing him a red mug with a soft “Be careful it’s hot” before sighing as she sat on a couch in the corner of the room. A window was behind her, and the rising morning sun painted her in such a soft light that, briefly, Tommy had the urge to ask if she was an angel herself. But that was impossible. Heaven would not have sent him anywhere remotely close to another Fallen—if she was one—and one living without their wings was unheard of.
They sat there in silence for a few minutes, the women still as she stared down at her hands, deep in thought. Tommy, when he finally took a sip from the drink, was surprised by how sweet it was. It was soothing in a way he wasn’t familiar with, and he liked the white masses that were in it. Marshmallows, he thinks they were called.
“Thank you for the drink”, Tommy told the women when he was done. “You didn’t– you didn’t need to do that for me.”
The woman looked up at last, clearly mulling over something despite her friendly smile. “It’s no problem.” She paused, hesitating with her next sentence. “You look…you look like you need help,” she made an abrupt gesture to Tommy’s wings before quickly dropping her hands again when Tommy tensed, wings curling further behind him in an attempt to keep the extra appendages hidden. “It would be cruel of me not to help,” she softly continued. She didn’t mention the wings, and Tommy wasn’t sure if he wanted her to or not.
“I have an offer for you. You can stay here, free of charge, free of–” a glance to his wings before focusing back to him ”–well, you know. I live alone, far away from the city. You wouldn’t have to worry about people coming for you, or have to live in a life constantly worried about what danger is lurking around the corner. All I ask is that you help out with the animals and contribute to the workload,” she explained. “For now you won’t do any heavy lifting, but it's just something to keep you occupied.”
Tommy looked down at his hands as he fidgeted in his seat, wings rumpled from where he was sitting, white and gold feathers gliding down to the floor. It was a tempting offer, but he was still cautious. He didn’t think she would harm him, already having enough opportunities to do so, but haven’t. If she was right about being far from civilization, he wouldn’t have to worry about hiding his wings or staying hidden. Maybe, and this was a big if, maybe she would even let him fly from time to time. Well. If his wings ever recovered enough to take flight again.
Tommy was tired, but he couldn’t deny how perfect her offer was. But that was part of the problem: it was too perfect. Not even Heaven was this perfect, nobody was this kind, especially down at Earth.
There had to be a catch, but what? “What do you want from me?” Tommy asked her, making direct eye contact in hopes that will allow him to detect any lies.
The women looked taken aback, sitting up straighter at Tommy’s words. “What? What do–” a tense laugh– “what do you mean by that?” If it weren’t for the alarm in her voice, Tommy would have thought he caught her in an attempt at an obvious lie. But the fear in her eyes, it wasn’t for herself, but for Tommy.
“Well I just,” he waved his hands around, eyes flickering around as his anxiety started to take further root, “I just thought there was a catch. There has to be a catch right, I mean, no one is—there’s no way you’re that kind. Nobody is like that.”
And I mean, look at me,” his feathers raised up, “I know these don’t look that appealing, but they,” his voice stuttered, not sure if he wanted to point out the potential his wings hold, “well I mean—surely you know what these are right?”
The woman stayed silent, an unrecognizable look in her face. Tommy couldn’t help but to tense at this, already sure of the worst possible outcomes. He had hoped that maybe she was kind, that maybe she was different, but he was wrong. He was wrong, and oh , did he just ruin his chances of survival.
Tommy’s thoughts were interrupted when the woman sighed, wood creaking as she shifts on the couch as her face turned more serious, more stern. “Listen kid, I know what those wings are, I know what you are, but I don’t... Even if I had ill intent towards you–which I don’t–those wings don’t hold much value.” Tommy stared down at his hands at her words, thoughts freezing. They don’t hold value? That’s, that’s impossible. Sure they’re mangled and don’t look amazing, but they were angle wings. Fallen, sure, but at the end of the day they were proof the divine existed. That Lady Clara existed.
“I don’t understand,” Tommy muttered, wings circling around him. “How could��why would they value so little?”
���Times have changed,” the woman explained. Tommy wasn’t sure how much time has changed since he last set foot on Earth, but it couldn’t have been that much time. At most, maybe a century, but even then, surely a lot hasn’t changed…right? The woman continued, “it’s so easy to fake contraptions that look like wings. Sure, maybe some people would take your wings as proof of supernatural beings, others would just call me a fake.”
So, I have a proposal for you. I live alone out here, which isn’t a bad thing. I need the space for all the animals, and the outskirts of L’Manburg is a perfect distance for us out here,” Tommy assumed ‘us’ was the animals. He wondered how many she had, if he already met all of them last night when he took shelter, or if she had more.
“I could always appreciate a helping hand,” the woman proposed again. “I wouldn’t expect much from you, just help me around the house, maybe take care of a few animals here and there. In exchange, you can live here for as long as you want.”
Tommy was tempted to take the offer. The lady seemed empathetic, and if she wanted to harm him, she would've already. He needed a place to recover, and the idea of having shelter and a constant source of food was undoubtedly better than where he was hiding previously. “You promise you won’t hurt me? Swear it on Lady Clara and your soul no harm will come to me?”
“I promise, as long as you stay within the fences of the farm, not a single feather of yours will be harmed.”
Tommy nodded, wings relaxing at the words. Call him naive, but he believed in promises, believed that people would stay true to their word. The other angels said this was the reason he died in his past life, he had allowed others to take advantage of him until they couldn’t anymore. Tommy refused to view this as a weakness however. He refused to believe that compassion was something to second guess, refused to see kindness as a flaw.
(Maybe this was just another thing that separated him from the other angels)
“Ok”, Tommy mumbled. “I would..I would like that. Staying, I mean.”
The woman just smiled at him gently, relief in her eyes. “That’s good,” she hummed.

Story about the Story
Echo in Time: Winter 1307-1309 Part 1
I hope that was painful to read because it was heartbreaking to play. I have never seen a sim so far in over his head as Nash was trying to handle the farm and two kids. Nothing was staged.
This chapter features the wonderful Make a Mess mod by @flotheory. It makes raising toddlers a lot more interesting and immersive. I’ve raved about it before. Making toddlers cause constant age-appropriate trouble really makes the life stage come, um, alive.
So, Nash had to drop everything every few hours to go feed the baby. He was required to feed the chickens and milk the cow. A bunch of garden plants still had harvestables they needed for the winter. Every time he turned his back, Alair made a mess, which he had to clean up. The “chamberpot” broke and spewed water all over the outhouse, and he had to fix that and clean up. There wasn’t enough time in the day. And then, right on cue, he got sick. Gotta say, I’m pretty proud of how Symptoms for Seasons turned out. Nash was not so thrilled.
Also featured is @zoeoe-sims‘s Toddler Food Bowls. Since there was no mother to breastfeed, Alair needed solid food. Nash was already working himself to the edge of passing out every day. So I used the food bowls to feed Alair. But Nash couldn’t get into town to earn any money selling at the market, and the §25/meal hit their savings hard.
I spent a lot of time dithering about whether or not to retcon Emmaline’s death. If I ever play a challenge like this again, the foundress will get an exemption from death rolls until she’s at least into adult life stage. But I played for a while assuming the death would stand, and Nash’s story was just so intense that it made the decision for me.
So Alair and Emma are officially charmed because they’re going to have to produce enough children to make this a viable challenge. RIP Emmaline. She’s totally going to be a townie in my games from now on, though.
I’d say the current rules are a pretty good difficulty level -- this should have been almost impossible, and it was.
BTW: The idea that Nash would become religious after Emmaline died was my kid’s. I thought it was a brilliant idea, and it gives Nash’s story some real depth I think.
A few outtakes:
Since the babysitter did that useless babysitter thing, I had to send Nash home from the funeral early to feed the poor kids. Sitter had strong opinions about the diapers she failed to change.
Nash is not impressed.
(Her bodice is not the correct period. Whoops.)
Nash tucks in Alair (Napping Mat, by Arsil adapted to TS4 toddler bed by ATS3 ). The animation doesn’t sync on this action, so it had to be two pictures, and I couldn’t figure out how to use them.

UK Tech Market Updates
Are you new to the newsletter?
Each week, I delve into the latest trends and developments in the UK tech market.
Let's explore what's new.
Farm Charm: How British Farms Are Thriving in the Instagram Era
Farms in Britain aren’t just about cows and crops anymore—they’re becoming wellness hubs! Think wild spas, yoga in Mongolian yurts, and outdoor cinemas, all ready for Instagram. Over 70% of English farms are jumping into these quirky experiences.
Take Peterley Manor Farm: they’re offering more than veggies, with yoga mats and yurts for a memorable visit. Farmers are smartly using glamping and festivals to tackle rising costs, earning more from these fun ventures than traditional farming. Farm life just got a major upgrade!
Yes, you read that right!
It’s a bit like when grandma decided to start selling organic sauce alongside her veggies and suddenly became a local celebrity! These farmers are evolving, and we are here for it. They’ve gone from muddy boots to spa slippers, and it’s working.
Next time you're craving a weekend getaway, forget the city and head to a farm! Who knew a wellness retreat could come with a side of fresh strawberries?
Netflix or Nation? Why Not Subscribe to a New Citizenship!
Instead of just choosing your mobile plan or Netflix subscription, you could choose your citizenship. Sounds wild, right? Well, tech entrepreneurs, led by former Andreessen Horowitz partner Balaji Srinivasan, are pushing the idea of "network states"—startup nations that start as online communities and eventually turn into physical territories with their own laws.
But wait, it’s not all smooth sailing...
Critics say these new “nations” might just be dressed-up corporate takeovers, with some events even talking about “moral dictators”. Others are concerned about alt-right symbolism and neo-colonial vibes sneaking in.
This whole idea feels like something straight out of a sci-fi novel. It’s fascinating to think about choosing citizenship like we pick our favorite streaming service! But let’s be real: it raises some eyebrows. Are we heading into a world where corporations might have more power than governments? That’s a bit unsettling.
Google Dodges a £1.3 Billion Bullet!
Big news in the tech world! Google just overturned a £1.3 billion fine from the European Commission, which accused it of using AdSense to keep rival ads out of search results—like a club bouncer saying, “Sorry, no competition allowed!”
The General Court found the evidence wasn’t strong enough to support the Commission's claims. This is a huge sigh of relief for Google, especially with European regulators tightening their grip on big tech.
It’s like watching a reality show where the contestant narrowly escapes elimination. Google may have dodged this bullet, but the regulators are still watching closely. It’s kind of like when your mom says she’ll let you off the hook this time—but she’s still keeping an eye on your snacks!

Digital weighing scales for dogs in Kampala Uganda
Digital weighing scales for dogs are specialized scales designed to accurately measure the weight of dogs in veterinary clinics, pet hospitals, grooming facilities, and homes.
Animal weighing scales provide an essential tool for monitoring the health, growth, and dietary needs of dogs. Here are some key features and characteristics of digital weighing scales for dogs:
Size and Weight Capacity: Dog weighing scales come in various sizes to accommodate different dog breeds and sizes. They have weight capacities ranging from a few pounds to several hundred pounds, depending on the scale model.
Digital Display: Most digital dog weighing scales feature a digital display that shows the weight measurement in a clear and easy-to-read format. The display is typically large enough to be visible from different angles, allowing for convenient weight monitoring.
Platform Design: Dog weighing scales often have a flat and non-slip platform for dogs to stand on during weighing. The platform may be made of durable materials, such as stainless steel or reinforced plastic, to withstand the weight and movement of dogs.
Tare Function: The tare function allows the scale to be zeroed out when a towel, mat, or container is placed on the scale. This enables the scale to measure only the dog's weight, excluding any additional items.
Hold Function: Some scales have a hold function that freezes the weight measurement on the display, even if the dog moves or becomes restless. This feature allows for accurate and stable weight readings.
Units of Measurement: Dog weighing scales typically offer units of measurement such as kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), ounces (oz), or a combination of units. This flexibility allows users to choose the unit that is most convenient for their specific needs.

With around 14 million annual visitors, Niagara Falls is already a potential cash cow for the many area businesses serving tourists. But at some of them, visitors contentious fees added to their bills — and CBC Marketplace has found they're growing. If noticed at all, tourists typically see them next to provincial sales tax or the city's Municipal Accommodation Tax.
Tourists and critics say that placement on the bill gives the appearance of a government-mandated charge. But that is not the case.
Just as there is no consistency in how much — Marketplace found they ranged from three to 12 percent — there is no single name for the added fees. They go by NFDF, Niagara Falls Destination Fee, TIF, or Tourism Improvement Fee. There's even an LF, or Luxury Fee, among many others. While they are at every hotel, restaurant or attraction, random spot checks conducted by Marketplace over nearly a decade show number of businesses adding fees to customer bills is growing, as is the amount.
For instance, a $150/night hotel charge would see up to an additional $18. "It's a total cash grab," a server at Milestone's restaurant told an undercover Marketplace producer. When asked by customers, she says she "cringe[s] every time I'm about it because that's what it is."
The restaurant charges a six percent "Luxury Fee" at its Niagara Fallsview location, a charge that exists at most others of the chain, according to the restaurant's parent company, Foodtastic.
Critics of added fees say they lack transparency when an array of names is. Many visitors may not know the Marketplace spot check. In a hidden camera spot check of hotels and restaurants, journalists asked for an explanation of the added fees and misleading from front-line staff.
At the Days Inn, a staffer described it as a Tax before correcting herself and calling it the Mandatory Charge, which the hotel combines with the recently instituted Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) of the only fee collected by the city. The Radisson front desk described it as an environmental fee: "It pays to recycle."
The Skylon Tower overlooking the Falls charges the lowest figure documented, an added three percent on top of the admission price. Staff explained Attractions and Promotions Fee pays for renovations and landscaping, among other things, but could be if requested.
At a nearby TGI Fridays, a server said the NFDF, or Niagara Falls Destination Fee, "goes towards improving the tourist experience" at IHOP server said he had to explain the 10 percent NFDF as "mandatory" and going toward "maintenance and fireworks." The city's famed fireworks are paid for by a separate fund, which receives money from the MAT.
Ching opposes fees that could as taxes and is concerned by front-line staff providing false information. "I would say this is very problematic," he said.
The server at Milestones was upfront about the Luxury Fee. "I always joke that it should be called the BS instead of the LF," she told Marketplace journalists posing as tourists. She described the fees as "insulting because the prices are jacked up in tourist areas already."
The Ontario government has allowed destination marketing fees in tourist communities since 2004. Multiple communities adopted such fees, including Niagara Falls. The city also now collects the MAT from hotel stays. The money funds tourist initiatives in the city.
But the fees to the MAT are collected by a third party, like a tourism authority is solely another revenue stream for the businesses that them, according to Thomson.
While hotels show the added fees when a reservation on the Marketplace visits does not provide notice of the menus or signs.
Marketplace reached out to all 12 establishments we visited. The parent companies of Days Inn, Milestones, Embassy Suites and Starbucks sent us statements, saying they don't control the pricing and charging those extra fees is unique to the independently operated locations in Niagara Falls.
The Radisson said it is four percent resort fee is on the low end compared to its competitors and goes toward amenities guests can enjoy while staying at its property, not an environmental fee Marketplace was told.
The company said it's working with staff to ensure the messaging is clear moving forward. In 2017, Ontario's then-Tourism Minister Eleanor McMahon told Marketplace: "If businesses in Niagara are not being transparent and they're not telling people what the fee is used for, then not only am I concerned about that, but we'll engage and do something about it."
And yet there is no indication the government took any action. Marketplace shared its latest findings with the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture, and Sport and asked if it would investigate how the fees are marketed and collected. Instead, it directed us to Ontario's Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery, which said businesses cannot misrepresent consumer fees as taxes, and any misrepresentation about the purpose of a fee may be considered a violation of the Consumer Protection Act.
The ministry also said any corporation convicted of an offence could be fined up to $250,000. Ministry investigations can begin, but there is no indication the provincial government plans to investigate or engage in enforcement.
Longtime Niagara Falls Mayor Jim Diodati believes businesses should be transparent and inform customers about the fees before they purchase them, as well as explain why they are necessary.
However, he claims that the city is powerless to effect change. Diodati is calling on the province to use its powers to "investigate to find out if it's allowed, if it's legal, and the question is if it's a good idea."
He does defend the addition of fees for these businesses, especially with the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic across the tourism sector.
Though he acknowledges that restaurants and attractions could take a different approach, such as raising the cost of their rooms, meals, and admission fees rather than adding fees that many tourists don't understand.
Diodati has advice for tourists. "I always tell people, first off, make sure [it's] buyer beware, and if it's on a hotel bill, you should have received an email confirmation. You should have read it, right? Do your diligence, do your homework, right?"
And if it's not on the bill, he says, "Well, then you don't have to pay it."
