Saw Bluesky described as where elder millennials go to retire from the internet, and immediately felt the peace that passes all understanding wash over me. None of have to struggle any longer. We completed our time.

Managed to put my back out shoving my suitcase up into my roof-space. I don't seem able to go a month without hurting myself. So annoyed at me right now.

Stop for a second. This is important. ⬇️
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

My new flat has one of these old-fashioned doorbells that is really really loud and abrasive. Any ideas how I might muffle the sound a little?

Artists! The US Copyright Office has changed the rules, starting in Feb. we can register up to 20 published 2D works of art in a single application, making it way more affordable!
Important as registration is needed to fight theft in court or the CCB.

ALL of this
The autistic tendency to stay up late because:

- nighttime is when the world finally slows down (quieter, fewer demands, less sensory input)
- you’ve been randomly hyperfocusing
- “do not perceive me”
- SPECIAL INTERESTS! ❤️
- transitioning to bedtime can be hard
- your circadian rhythm is chaos 🫠

To be fair, not being a nazi is pretty fucking sexy.

One of the funny things I have discovered since setting up my new home in this 150-year-old house is that none of the walls are straight. Not a since piece of furniture sits flat against a wall, it's so quirky 😂

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

I'm cheating because it does feature 3 of those, but it's a compilation so also has many other artists!

I would go so far as to say we all got wiped out in 2012, in the Mayan end of the world thing, and since then we've been in a massive mass-hallucination. One that's getting more and more ridiculous to see how far we'll be pushed before realising. Change my mind.
We are all dead. We died of Covid in 2020 and are now in hell. It's the only possible way to explain why everything in the world is so fucked up now.

With Bardot's passing, the only named individuals in Billy Joel's We Didn't Start The Fire that are still alive are Bob Dylan, Chubby Checker, and Bernie Goetz. The last one standing will claim The Prize.
