thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 19/06/2026So we were looking for a guard dog, and she became available. She was biting her sister, so yeah - she fits the job description. She became an amazing guard dog. But also - sometimes - quite astonishly badly behaved. 000
thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 19/06/2026I'm old enough to not remember Andy Burnham as Health Secretary. Still...he can't be as hopeless as Starmer? 000

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Temp job weeding duplicate 78s & singles from the National Sound Archive's stores. In a disused Tube station in Belsize Park. So we nicked the duplicates we fancied and swapped some for pints at the pub. Hell, I've still got Big Yellow Taxi. 100
thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 18/06/2026Remember what happened the last time you told me to "budge up"? Don't you learn? #dogs 030

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 17/06/2026For the first weeks/months, it hurts. Then, in a very surprising way, you kind of forget about it. 010

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Bullies and enemies are with us always. But we don't have to make it easier for them. 000
thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Also No. Dogs ≠ kinky furries. Where, Bsky, do you get that from? Each to their own, but OMG, no. 010

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026My English teacher was "Thomas Hardy writes like he's swallowed the dictionary and then thrown it up all over the page. But we have to do The Woodlanders because it's the set text." Luckily we also did 1984. Because it was *actual* 1984. 020
thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Awww. Look at that cheeky smile. The one that says "I'm going to live a life of luxury and privilege on your dime"? Bless. 000
thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026He seemed like a slight improvement on Dimbleby for R4 "Any Questions". But since then...oh dear, trust no-one. Certainly not your own judgement. 000

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Street trees at a friend's. She hates the endless fallen leaves and mast. But the council says "These trees are good for you in more ways than you know. So, suck it up." #thicktrunktuesday 030

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Re: water and anything new. It won't be news to anyone, but a farmer put it nicely in a recent interview: "British weather used to be sunshine and showers. Now it's drought and deluge." 000

thursdayschild @alsoatdeathsdoor.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Just this. Don't kick their asses after they're on it. The users, the addicts. Half of them, most of them, didn't know what they were getting on or even that they were getting on anything at all. Just try to keep them, the people, any of us, from getting on it. #booksky P K Dick. A Scanner Darkly 010
