Going to spam the finance inbox of a non-psying client with constant payment reminders. The oldest so far 3 months overdue but going to batch send LBAs when they're all overdue which will be about a month away.
I love this, but asking as a parent HOW LONG DOES THIS CRAZINESS LAST??
fesshole 🧻@fesshole.bsky.social · 15h agoWhen I was ten, I wanted to try eating a small bird perched on the neighbor's roof, so I threw cotton swabs coated in glue at it. My grandmother was furious when she saw the countless swabs stuck to the roof, but I remained silent about my reasons for doing it.

It's the season of lights on, curtains drawn for all waking hours. Well, road facing side anyway. Back rooms seldom used and neighbours will have to tolerate seeing me go about my day inside my own home.
This article offers half a dozen reasons why people have stopped having friends and family over, but it ignores the fact that the women who planned parties and kept homes tidy enough for unplanned guests are now working for pay full-time (usually more than 9-5). www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

That time someone dumped a toy house on the cemetery wall and, when I crouched a bit, some ✨ Hollywood Magic ✨ occurred.
Apparently one of the places young teens like to hang out is the children's book section in the local Oxfam. Love that.

This poem sets out the body as wounded and miraculous. It is about survival & reclamation of power There is such depth in the images, there is music in these lines, this is a poem to read out loud and slowly #poetry #poemoftheday #blackhistorymonth
Didn't love the new Carrie. King was always great at portraying abusers; The struggle of the abused to rise up from oppression, and the strength of that fight creating a supernatural and satisfying vengeance. The series isn't any of that. But great acting, great cinematography, and great soundtrack.
Life is constantly making demands of us, but it's ok to ignore most of them until life learns some manners and stops being so rude.
The biggest barrier of entry for creative spaces beforehand was giving a shit about making stuff. Thank god AI has removed this hurdle so now ppl who don’t care about anything can clutter these spaces up
gregor samsa awoke one morning to discover he had been transformed into a sickass beetle. fuck yeah he said scuttling all over the walls and ceiling like no dumbfuck traveling salesman could ever do. this is the best day of my life he said
What has she got against Paddington? Tbf my daughter has never forgiven him for that time he accidentally shaved a man's head and tried to stick the hair back on with marmalade.

"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!" Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.
So many road closures in the Cotswolds I struggled to find my way home 😬
My neighbour George died recently. From the moment I moved in, 16 years ago, to the day he died we didn't speak once, no animosity, just the way we liked it. His sister let me have a look around his house. Turns out George and I shared the exact same set of interests. Damn.
Awww. "We are holding a lot of your people who you failed to love and take care of."

Channel 4 News@channel4news.bsky.social · last wk.377 live exotic animals have been seized at the Sicilian port of Pozzallo. A car bound for Malta was found to have kept the animals inside without adequate space or temperature controls. The animals have since been transferred to an amateur breeder to care for them.
My 3 favourite photos which I'd like framed in A2 size some day.
Realised that I don't know anyone irl that makes good decisions and that needs to change because the second hand stress is immense. By 'good' I mean not repeated high risk decisions likely to bankrupt them or ruin their life.
