Glad to hear they're letting you WFH! This was me in one of the buildings I work in a fortnight ago 😂. When I retrained, I didn't realise saving old paper things was going to be so full of adventure!

Very much this (although I don't get sent home, I have to rescue things from the leaky/crumbling bits).

Hope the move goes well! I don't know what to do with myself today!!

Hello, you're very welcome to use my anti-AI bookplate any time if useful bsky.app/profile/clai... (at some point I'll get round to drawing and printing more bookplates against AI!)
Grateful to my union @societyofauthors.bsky.social for fighting the UK government's plans to gift the work of writers, artists, musicians, filmmakers and more to AI companies (on top of the work they've already stolen) #MadeByHumans #PayTheCreator #BookplatesAgainstAI
