    @Binder@petrous.vislae.town @TheBreadmonkey@beige.party @purplepadma@beige.party @astronomerritt@hachyderm.io Just found out an old school mate has been doing improv chilled electronica sessions. Have a listen. https://freqsradio.com/show/tullis-rennie-my-own-devices-30-04-26/

    Nigel Farage ordered the hit on Ann Widdecombe so he could keep his £5 million. Pass it on.

    Wedding next week. What the fuck is smart casual?!

    News have to say “the suspect, a white British national” in relation to the Widdecobe case. So that Farage doesn’t try and wind up all the flag shaggers.

    Well that was a horrible morning. Needles everywhere. Anesthetic in gums for filling replacement. Cheek got caught by drill so more syringes. Off to Drs for blood tests. Trainee couldn’t get a vein, so random stabbing. Then got told I was late for a booster. So another jab in the arm. (B12 HURTS)! Drooling from a numb face and bleeding from a swollen arm Cats have all gone out, so no sympathy from anyone. #CrapMorning

    Boo. Psyched myself up for a trip to the pub and a quiet pint. Forgot about the match. England shirts everywhere. Turned around and came straight back. Lot of stress and effort for nothing.

    @Radgryd@mstdn.games I remember her telling a story that when she wrote the screenplay for Sense and Sensibility her computer died. Stephen Fry came round to recover it.

    RE: https://newsie.social/@TheConversationUK/116613073780345702 I’m sure it’s spelled grift.

    Checked calendar. Drs in the morning. No idea what it’s for. Early to bed.

    You know if you watch the Google IO keynote backwards… It’s still shit.

    Quick trip to doctors. Bumped into the nurse going to the loo so managed to skip the queue. Caught up on local gossip while being stabbed with needles. Stuff went in, stuff came out. Same again next month. 5 mins, done.

    Holy shit! This week in “Who’s in the holiday house next door?” It’s a group of young teenagers singing songs about Jesus. The greaseball catholic religious leader and his wife are going to get absolutely fucked this weekend. PUT THE TAMBOURINE AWAY!

    @BOOKHOUSE@mas.to Loved that book and “the one with no name” buzz buzz. Saw one a few years ago called Ruby. It was about an Austin 7. If you got the registration number right, you could win the car.

    Brother and niece here for the night sister and other niece have called. Aunt and uncle have shown up with dog and wine. Holiday cottage next door arriving for the weekend they’ve let their dogs loose in our garden. The cats have no idea what’s going on and doing zoomies everywhere. I’m having five minutes to myself.

    When it’s miserable outside the cats want more snuggles. BRING ON THE STORM!

    Too much exercise this morning. Not sure if the cat likes it. She’s sat on my lap jiggling around as my legs have gone into spasm.

    Turned down three pub crawls this weekend. What a good boy. (I checked my bank balance).

    Just seen a trailer for a film called Backrooms. Someone played the game Control.

    Just realised a cool thing that happened on Friday. Was out on a walk with old school mates and their kids. One is very much of the age of asking millions of questions. Got onto prisons and people getting separated into different groups. Kid pipes up “Not everyone is a boy or a girl. What if they haven’t decided yet?” Taken me a couple of days to fully realise what this young kid said.

    Went on a walk to pick up meds. Petrol station in town hasn’t had its latest fuel delivery. All pumps shut. There are some very cross people who don’t who to complain to.

    @spytfyre Overheard someone ask if it was because of hummus.

    Had someone round to help explain disability letters I’ve been getting. She’s got an incredibly gorgeous voice. (Think Shohreh Aghdashloo). At one point she said “Can I be harsh with you?” I bit my tongue really hard…

    Piddling around with a “make my keyboard sound like a typewriter” app. Carriage return is really taking me back…
