Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 08/01/2025Hope you're ok with all these fires going on @larand.one 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 10/08/2024No indeed. They are interesting. I love that YouTube has so much wisdom like this, in amongst the garbage. And who knows, these things spread by word of mouth. Very much from below. You can only try to lead by example, nothing else works. 010
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 10/08/2024Really good. I’ve been working my way through a book about humility recently. It’s taught me a few things and has reframed my thinking on quite a lot. Always a work in progress. 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 22/02/2024Urk, Finnish! Not a language I ever plan to attempt. 😱 010
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 23/12/2023Schnauzer? I have one like that. Denial of food is the worst crime. Ever. Even immediately after she’s had her dinner. 🙄 130
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 23/12/2023The dog is clearly not particularly excited about Christmas. 011
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023There were & I don’t envy the governments having to make them. Though failing to realise that some people lived alone was pretty basic stuff. Collateral damage. And now I’ve just spent 10 weeks getting over my first Covid bout. It destabilised my asthma badly, but I’m definitely on the mend now. 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023Well, there was that thing of having to get used to complete solitude (in my case). Though not sure having it illegal for me to have physical contact with another human being for 4 months exactly did me much good. I’m not the most affectionate of people and I found it soul-destroying. 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023I’ve never heard of him. Guess I’d better take a look/listen. 200
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023Oh that’s kind of good to know. I sometimes wonder if I’m just thoroughly antisocial, as I can find people so draining. Even people I like. So much noise! 😂 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023I don't think my dog would ever forgive me! She starts the count down at least 30 minutes before dinner time as it is. Little does she know she's going to get it an hour early today as I have a long rehearsal right across her usual time. She'll probably try to get two dinners out of me, mind. 🙄 000
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 24/11/2023Not something I have to deal with - even back in the day there was usually just the four of us. I went to a friend's for Christmas in Covid - 9 people was too much for me, I found it exhausting. Fun, but sooo tiring. 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 31/10/2023It’s that time of year again. No doubt the storm forecast for the next couple of days will see these all on the ground. ☹️ 011
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 30/10/2023Oh is she now! 😂 They are the classic. I have a couple of smaller ones & I like them well enough, but I don’t love them. I have a couple of Hongdians with the “long blade” nib - which is in effect an architect grind. They are great for the money. Still like Onoto or Graf von Faber Castell best. 000
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 30/10/2023So he said. Interesting, given we all think he has little girly hands. 😈 I’ve suggested a Montblanc 149 & some significantly cheaper ones - Pelikan M800 & my current favourite brand: Onoto, which are at least British. And make stunning pens. 110
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 30/10/2023He messaged the other day, then accused me of being a pen geek! 🤷♀️ I made a few suggestions, having assumed he had a decent budget. 😂 We're still on brand/model - nib size is yet to be discussed. Such fun spending other people's money. 110
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 29/10/2023Apparently sufficient treats hadn’t been handed over. 🙄 000
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 07/10/2023To be fair I never liked the colour of the EU ones - clashed with my hair. #goodreasonsforBrexit 110
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 20/09/2023Yeah well I don’t have the means to pay for it - it’s all part of a bigger plot to stomp on the plebs. Make us pay & they carry on with their private jets etc. I wish the last decade had been Tory rule - this lot are unrecognisable, but so is Labour. All rotten. 000
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 20/09/2023Oh. Well, there was this lockdown thing, so what else was I to do? Of course, I could’ve learnt a “proper” language instead of a created one, but nope, Esperanto it is. 000
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 20/09/2023I actually think it’s the only decent thing he’s done. Given that the UK being net zero makes sod all difference unless China, the US etc are, why impoverish hard working people who simply can’t afford new cars, or different heating systems. We need a break, life is shit at the moment. 100
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 13/09/2023That's just a bit bonkers! *Heads off to investigate possible new musical instrument. 010
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 06/09/2023True. I permit myself one peek a day at the headlines & follow up anything especially interesting. Generally I can guess most of the rest. 110
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 06/09/2023I don’t know how you can bear to watch these things. I try to avoid any news/politics. They all make me sick, both main parties. Rotten to the core. I expected better of supposedly intelligent men. Utterly spineless. 110
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 06/09/2023Heather still hanging on under the trees. Doubt much else is in the heat. Far too hot & humid for a Celtic Brit. 🥵 030
Vanessa @hazardwarning.bsky.social · 05/09/2023Trouble is no governments since around the 1980s have done anything about it. Typical of the short-termism of politics. We are led by idiots. No integrity whatsoever. 020
