Weird how the media are telling us today that Sandie Peggie might appeal the case that, according to them yesterday, she won.

Trump: "It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. As you probably know, we've just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela. Largest one ever seized actually. And other things are happening."

Christmas dog-sitter fell through, mainly because I self-sabotaged and didn't confirm in time.
I hate going back to Ireland for Christmas, it's such a stress and expensive. I want to curl up with my dog and watch crap movies instead.
I have to go though so I'm scouring the internet for someone 😬

Going through the Black Friday deals on PlayStation Store and just had the most massive nostalgia about getting free demo games cassette with some computer magazine.
Loading that cassette up on a Commodore 64 - best afternoon ever

Having an absolute dog-shit time with my mental health combined with a heavy work load plus trying to find time to visit a friend in hospital is really not great.

Absolutely zero sympathy to people who have 'paid millions in tax' now crying poverty. Fuck off.
I've got no chance to retire and I'll be renting for life as there's zero chance of me getting on the property ladder as I approach 50.
If I can get out of debt before I die, that'll be an achievement.

This house tax pretending is making me more insane than usual because as a renter I’ve had to move every 1-3 years just as standard because rents always rise. And no one cares. House owners get a tiny fraction of that precarity and suddenly it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened

Imagine being on a train that has no driver, is cancelled, and the doors won’t unlock and the train manager can’t manage to open them. Terrifying - what if there was an emergency? Fire, heart attack, lunatic with a knife?
Still waiting for a driver. Still stuck on a locked train. Missed next train.

My mother opening up about all the 'family secrets' in her later years has me wondering whether it's time to go back to therapy.
Then I remind myself that therapy costs money so I'll just have to trauma dump on people I meet in the dog park.

I lost my best mate 13 years ago today. It was one of the most awful days of my life, I'll never get over it. She was days away from being 32.
We should still be prancing around Soho and gossiping and talking about our hips aching.

Just rescued a pigeon that had a plastic bag attached to his neck.
He could fly but it was like had had one of those resistance training parachutes attached.
Grabbed him, untwisted the handle of the bag and set him free.
Presumably he felt a lot quicker after all that training.
Good deed: ✅

The owner of X is now a trillionaire and repeatedly foments civil unrest in the UK. Not only does our government stay quiet, they post on his platform, which an excellent piece of Sky journalism has shown deliberately amplifies far right content. Insane.

A man who has never had to lift his finger in his life, doesn't care to. Saw the cameras, narcissism kicked in. Totally vacant.
