I've been really lucky - I've had just one dud NVMe among the several I've bought in the past few months, and CEX just immediately refunded me with no quibble at all.

right, my Asana to-do list is cleared and it's a bank holiday in India tomorrow so I am assuming that very little, if anything, is going to land on my desk tomorrow so I am going to start gently winding down to the weekend

yeah, that's the only sane way forward at the moment. And it's not as if you need bleeding-edge graphics on a server, eh

She would certainly appreciate significantly more chicken in her diet, but I'm not sure she'd like it fried in used-man-times-oil. Her Majesty likes freshly cooked and served chicken breast.

I will be quite glad when it's not warm enough to need windows/back door open so I won't be able to smell the chicken shop out on the main road throughout my flat😑😑

Rats are really smart, aren't they? Sausage knew he should be able to smell the human he was seeing!

RUDE. Fortunately my team is well aware that Daphne being on a call means they must say hello to her and send me DMs about how beautiful she is.

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 4h

yeah, this happens all the time.

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 4h

She's already approved that...

Daphne has some contributions to make to the all-paws meeting

Noted, thanks for the intel!

That sounds awful. Starting to slightly dread my visit next week

Cats are such dicks. It's a good job they're cute.

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 6h

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

yeah, they're far more focused on rooting out Zionists than on actual green policies like net zero, decarbonisation etc

Anyway, quick scan of their account and it seems they're rather obsessed with "Israeli false flags", so instant block.

"kindness" in a bio is such a red flag these days

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 6h

Absolutely fuck these disgusting people

I take it you've never heard of the extremely common practice on airlines of deadheading jettly.com/post/deadhea...

now that's what I call a birthday present! Happy birthday!

They're completely appalling. Never ashamed to absolutely scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 7h

urrgggh, fingers crossed they've got their shit together in time for half term!

010

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 7h

good. Hope it's finally toast.

100

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 7h

fingers crossed! I will report back next week. I was hoping it would just be a couple of hours out of the house away from my desk - 45 minutes there, half an hour in and out, 45 minutes home - so I could claim it's a very long lunch break.

13.10. Which I guess means the queue will have acquired an enormous backlog by then 🙄

... which is five minutes in terms of doing anything in government, never mind doing really big things! And some of that time was August.

The Canary is absolutely vile. Not one single redeeming feature about it.

I miss the days when the Greens were campaigning about trees and the ozone layer and cared about the environment

tbf, he's only been prime minister for five minutes

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

I'm going next week and they had better not do this to me then

190

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

yes, quite. They are truly vile.

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

I see the Canary, never afraid to stoop to disgusting lows, is at it again

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

I'm just astonished they haven't been beating a path to your door

010

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

it's weird how we react to things under immense pressure, eh. Not sure it would be my priority, but then hopefully I never have to find out

Kate Bevan @katebevan.com · 8h

in any case, you have your own specialism: you are an expert catcher of apples

thank you, Abbey *gives you a belly rub*

Everything about this is just completely terrifying - thank God for the brave passengers who dragged the attacker off, and thank God there were a couple of pilots deadheading on the flight who could take over flying the plane
