My name isn't Gordon. Or Nodrog. Takes photos. Of things. And stuff.

'missing out on' That implies that someone was in the running for something in the first place. #KnobHeadPissPrize

Going away for a couple of days, so naturally I have to turn the house upside down first.

Most countries, at worst, have a debate over the morality of the death sentence. USA is skipping all that and going straight to livestreaming executions.

Got served a game add, sound down, so dunno, but it was women losing weight in dramatic ways, seemingly because they were wearing an earing with a spinny thing in it. The ad was from Boots. Like, wtaf?

You can't expect techbros to go coping these days. They just send their avatars into the metaverse while their capitol burns holes in the planet and their cars roam around autonomously as status symbols.

I dunno, maybe the radio playing Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings isn't the best choice for commuters at the end of a day's work. I personally find it the most depressing piece of music I know.

It's quite hard to counter frothing right wing types when the left isn't giving much to point them at.

Listening to a hardboiled Raymond Chandler audiobook but the narrator sounds like Brian, the dog from Family Guy.

Savaged by mosquitos overnight again. In October. On the south coast of England. Surely these things should have flown south for winter by now?

Strange New Worlds S4 has been kinda mid, but my gods, Ep6 is staggering. Everything good about Trek; optimism, friendship, peril, mad science, lost fingers. One scene in particular also had some of the best visuals I've seen in ages.

Even more curiously, the other me is a courier for E*ri, who I stopped using because they can't find a hole in the ground with a bowling ball after they moved his route. So, my problems with E*ri are really all my own fault, in a funny kind of way.

An odd thing today. Gave my name to be told my full name is the same as the guy's dad's, who I not only know because he's a regular courier in my area, but also because we use the same osteopath who regularly mixes us up. My name isn't terribly common, either.

Expensive morning. Grocery shopping, bought a new mattress, and worst of all, had to fill the car with petrol.

The thinking is fine, as far as it goes, but it's so often used to trash anything good that an opposing viewpoint is offering.

Single issue people are so odd. It's like they're stuck in an elevator because they only know how to press one button.

In a fit of wild optimism I just booked an opera ticket for next year. Didn't check with the Vogons or anything.

Just had to take my phone out if its case. I was surprised by what it looks like. All that design work for sales and marketing, vanished for ever the moment I got it. Cased up forever.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

And after an angry evening looking at things, it really looks like the berk is working from the premise that 1 in 4 Saturdays is 12 a year, when it's actually 13. But at least I have maths to tell him to eff off with.

I am FURIOUS with my manager. Messaging me out of hours to say I've got to do 1 in 3 Saturdays from 1 in 4, to 'meet contracted hours'. Pretty darned sure I'm doing that already.

Huh. Pre-internet I had a battered vinyl copy of this, wasn't overly keen on it but had no idea what it really was until it popped up again just now & the internet could answer questions. A popular musical, it seems. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipi_Tombi www.deezer.com/en/album/886...

There is too much in the world for anyone to have seen, read, watched, listened to or even heard of everything. Even if the discussed thing is in a medium popular with you.
