I've lost count of how many of these social media platforms I've signed up to now.
Not the best time for my workplace to get onboarded to GitHub :-S

Like our Jira Cloud subscription, setup under our main org, but users can setup products outside of it (same domain), self-admin. We can’t support them, and we can’t turn the option off. 🤦🏻‍♂️

This was me in film meetups in Edinburgh. “Such and such is an amazing director but this wasn’t her finest work” and I sit quietly, thinking “I actually quite enjoyed the film because it succeeded in making me feel X emotion but now I’ll stay quiet and munch on this croissant” 😅
sometimes when people say oh the costumes were so bad and so and so’s performance sucked I’m like wow how could you tell I was distracted by The Events

Less than two hours to go before the Red warning expires. Lots of bluster but folk must have done their prep on my side of the neighbourhood. So far this is the only casualty to report.

(Also, someone's potted plant got blown over)

I'm aware there are already *those* types of trolls on here. But they've also got moderation and blocking on here unlike X, so what the hey, I'll give the place a chance.

One thing I find about life with one balance nerve is I kinda don't trust my balance and think I'll fall more often than I do. Walked up and down the breakwater at Granton Harbour and had a few moments where I thought I'd trip, stumble then tumble into the water but i survived 😅 #acousticneuroma

So happy I caught sight of that Massy shopping bag in the baggage hall in Glasgow airport a week ago. Now I’m in a WhatsApp group of Trinidadians in Scotland. A month ago I could count the Trinis I knew here on one hand.

Plus I got to eat this today. #macaronipie #trinidad #scotland
