TFW, you've had a slightly frustrating disrupted week jumping around between bitty bits of work & feeling unproductive, so you settle down to do some nice, straightforward #lexicography & the next word on your list is "waggle" 😊

Today, I'm joining @societyofauthors.bsky.social protesting against the use of pirated works by Meta to train their AI models.
According to LibGen, 8 of my books have been stolen without permission or compensation. This is illegal - it's plain and simple theft.

A frustrating #StetWalk this morning, took my glass bottle to the deli to get a milk refill ... only to find they'd run out. Had to resort to plastic milk from the supermarket but then argued with the self-checkout about the empty glass bottle in my shopping bag!
At least there were magnolias ...

Banning swearing in Formula One could be bad for drivers – a linguist explains
