Insomnia and doom scrolling observations: Part 255.

Instagram bands advertising their music have the wildest names.

Today's winner? Nunsofthetundra.

A wimple is not a sensible clothing choice for that environment and has a high risk of 'The Flying Nun' effect in the high winds.

Well, I suppose for UK users of the Google maps app, #Google have taken a suitably British, apologetic approach to being morons.

What? You don't try and take a photo of your eye in the dark at night when you have insomnia?

You're weird...

I know the climate is changing , but... really @metoffice.bsky.social ?

How do I get a Yellow Warning for Rain and Snow with this unseasonably warm outlook? Warning should be 'Careful, umbrellas may turn inside out and hair will get damp making you look a bit wild when ordering a skinny latté.."

Hope you all had a good #WinterSolstice - the countdown to the wild garlic sprouting begins now.

Change a 1905 sterling silver spoon into a home for a cracked amethyst cabochon. Guid days work.

Braved snow. Pushed mum's car out the drive and safely got dad to the football for our first Saints game together since being season ticket holders in the 90's.

Alzheimer's and an essential tremor makes independent living a challenge for dad, but we still love to torture ourselves on a Saturday.

Morning.
After two days in Glasgow having to 'collaborate' my social battery has crumbled into dust.

Couple of days refuge and recharge starting with my fave coffee shop. Friendliest staff ever with a fair amount of geekery.

This closing sentence in @rockpapershotgun.bsky.social sums up the #starcitizen cult very nicely.

Let's have mandated TOIL you can only claim back once Squadron42 ships. Assuming you don't get laid off beforehand. Better sell a tonne of imaginary ships at citizencon for the next 11 years dev..

Back in the day when you needed to be in someone's inner circle.

If ever you needed proof of my happiness with my own company.

Remembering season 5 of The X-Files where it all went batshit crazy.

Good to know this water is fully recyclable. Never thought about it before.. I mean, is other water without this clarification recyclable?! How much of it have I never recycled? Is my gut actually made of non-recycled water?!?!

I feel the bottled water industry needs to come clean... Now!!!

FYI - of you eat the flower of a wild garlic plant as it is emerging...

... prepare to have the power of every garlic clove in the world in your mouth. And your family to be repelled at a distance if 10m.

Good grief. Here, have a look at this bee while I softly weep for my taste buds. 🐝 🧄

I try to avoid going to sleep at a sensible time, way too often for a grown-up.

Today's legendary tactic? Yes, I really must start watching The X-Files from the very beginning, It is the *only* sensible achievement this week.
