When I see a Swasticar with an "I bought it before we knew he was crazy" sticker I want to add a "but I kept it once I found he was a nazi" sticker. Buy them on my Etsy shop.

Someone called the Democrat party the Vichy government and honestly it's the best description I've heard in a long while.

As we move into a kleptocracy, I've been wondering how I can get my slice of the pie. Become a slumlord? Start a pump and dump crypto? Nope. New business venture starts tomorrow. Designer. Bespoke Guillotines by Gainford.

If Duolingo has taught me anything, and it hasn't, it's that America is feminine in Spanish and Mexico is masculine. So this name change from Donald is really a huge affirmation of trans rights. #Gulf

When I am drafted to expand his imperial majesty's empire, I hope it's Panama. I can see myself in a Panama hat with a cigar. Preferably on a beach with a rum drink. Not freezing my bollix off in Greenland. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

We learn so much from children. Like how to preemptively wake up at 1am and not get back to sleep because for the last 3 nights, she's demanded a bottle at that time. And is now sleeping though the night again.

I made Joel Robuchon's “purée de pomme”. Which didn't have any apples. But did have a ridiculous amount of butter. I think I've used up my butter allowance for the decade.

Social media needs a "Report for being fucking stupid" button. Instead of reporting an account for hateful content, for fake content to try to scam you or whatever, sometimes we just need to report them for being so fucking dumb that we want to save others from seeing that.

I hit my 100 day streak on duolingo and still can't speak any more Italian than ordering a coffee and a croissant. Which I used to be able to do by pointing and saying "coffee and croissant please." But loudly and slowly because louder and slower is like a babelfish.

Schrödinger’s invention. At the same time one of the most ridiculous things ever while being the greatest piece of genius in history. A stand to hold a kindle with a remote for turning the page. Stupid idea. But then there's lying in bed without dropping the kindle on your face for the tenth time.

Just over half way through Nanowrimo and only at 15k words. A little behind. I did discover a lot about this story though and with a few year's work can be an actual novel. #amwriting #NaNoWriMo

I knew the price of avocado toast couldn't stay low forever. This is a conspiracy by big toast and big avocado colliding to stop me buying a house.
