Tell me how your week's going without telling me how your week's going.
In other news: big welcome to the first cold of the academic year 🤧

Today's puzzle:
Why do I have 64 reusable shopping bags when I do almost all my grocery shopping online?

Made it 😴

Telegram spammers make me laugh. How needy is this one?! Imagine me, not showing much respect for their time. It's almost like this was...a totally unsolicited spam text.

When you have urgent reading to do so you go to the furthest corner of an obscure library, sit at the furthest table and realise these are on the shelf next to you 🤩 #notgettingthatreadingdoneamI

There's a corner shop near where I stay for uni and it has a cassette tape for sale. It is that kind of shop that sells pretty much everything you might need but this is fascinating.
I've been visiting it every time I come to Oxford to see if it is still there. Nobody has snapped it up yet.

More from y13. I didn't see this one but a colleague sent me a picture 😂 this was me getting my @histassoc.bsky.social fellowship, have some respect!

Y13 have been busy with the tribute pictures that are all over the school for their leavers' day. I'm honoured, obvs, but mildly concerned about my association with this book. At least they used a decent picture.
Also I might like my own court tbf.

I'm also absolutely raging that this one, Erdo, opposed the church taking in migrants. This is the complete antithesis of Christian values as far as I'm concerned.

This chart is saying something helpful for the report I'm currently writing for uni, but the scale on the X axis is making me deeply uncomfortable.

These spam contacts always make me laugh. Please no, no more work, please. I have enough employers.

Fancy dinner at college tonight 👩🏻‍🎓 I'm back for the second week of my MSc in Ed Assessment, so interesting!

Team Hums had a great cleaner last year. She didn't speak English and we don't speak Portuguese but this proved no barrier. We showed each other pictures, me mostly of Lenin (cat, not Bolshevik).
Today she brought in hand painted tea towels for all of us and mine has Lenin on it 🥹🥰 so lovely.

Is there anything more 'I'm speaking at an online history conference' than this? #iykyk #shpdtc25

@teachertapp.bsky.social just trolling all the grammar pedants today #FEWERTHAN

Yes, Lenin does this too. He is very annoyed about the rain continuing even when he has made it clear he would like to go out. I have told him I don't control the weather but he has seen me turn the shower off so he therefore knows I must be lying.

Thanks, Facebook, for this ghoulish recommendation as we draw a year to a close.

My colleague Becky came up with the genius idea of a tea trolley around staff classrooms on the last day of term. The SLTea Trolley, if you will. Funnest job ever.

It's beginning to look a lot like the end of term.
This is a dauphinoise danish 😍
