I was half an hour late lol
The people in my team told me I was the best manager they’ve ever had. Put a huge smile on my face.
Because I actually cared about them and not just about myself.
hey fluffy guys 👋👋👋
you deserve all the kudos 🙂
An hour early for my Drs appointment, but it’s better than being late 😂
Edit: ooo she saw me early! #winning!
having to tell people off for having an ad hoc meeting right next to my desk. The looks they gave me I nearly turned around and said “Bro this isnt even your area! If your gonna sit in IT’s section least you can do is be respectful and not shout at each other 2 meters from my desk!”
I have the same problem, especially when I’m on my break though I don’t have the courage to tell people they’re being too loud and disturbing me,
Good time to start humming stuff complete off key.
So i orderd a large carbonara from sunny boys
Turns out that’s like a kilo and a half.
it's on a large pizza box
Oh my! Pig out time. And freeze some for later …
Im gonna feast allll winter
Blink yeah ok carry on
that looks delicious
I really like how this puzzle is not the usual dimensions.
( I’d do the horizon after the edges, then the tree line, then sort top and bottom )
So do I. It’s a Graeme Base. I might keep it.
Nice. 🙂
My sister’s cat does this. And about half the pieces end up with little tooth mark deckles around the edges. Has been known to stash random pieces in his bed. I think he likes the taste of the glue.
Oh I don’t glue. I either give them away or stash for enough years they are new again
I was referring to the glue that holds the cardstock together to the picture - not the glue that people use to frame a jigsaw.
no glue!
CBM GF drop ?? what’s CBM? (though I am so tired I read that as CMB (cosmic microwave background) and was momentarily very confused
oooh CBM cheaper by miles - NO but that’s saturday morning shopping sorted :-)
Yay!
Cheaper by Miles. Did I disremember your interest in such goods?
Helpful Cat is pointing out where the missing piece goes
If he could point out where that one is in the sort pile…
He’s sitting on it.
It’s funny with how cold it’s been these past few nights, that tonight’s 14.6°C (BoM) feel warm and spring-like lol
Edit:
There He sits upon His Throne 🙌🏼
Smiley boy
aww, he looks all sleepy
Unwell and wfh (somewhat) today, but got distracted by a house restoration show and have gone down a snoopy real estate rabbit hole
Meanwhile, the warm fluffy oodie I ordered has arrived at work, while I’m at home where it’s chilly
sigh
The kid has something and I think I now have something too. Still gonna get pissed tomorrow night.
and you too
Thanks. Mines a niggle at the moment.
Fingers crossed it doesn’t get worse. I reckon the alcohol will kill it, anyway
Ummm…yeah.
That’s my excuse for wine atm, lol… it’s taken my mind off it at least
get well soon
Thanks :-)
I’m feeling ok, mainly just sorry for myself now, lol. And I got to do some voyeristic pretendy-spendy on realestate I can’t afford
Can my period, like, just fkn stop. STAHP!
hugs
Drugs, cat hugs, & pho
His Lordship got me a self heating jacket for an anniversary present ohohoho
I never in all my born days thought this would happen. But on reflection, the article makes a good point about confluent aspirations.
There are some episodes of the QAA podcast on the crossover between the wellness industry and conspiracy theories so this doesn’t feel like a massive jump.
When people are already rejecting vaccines and science it’s probably easier to sell them on eugenics
Yeah, just look at RFK jr
All his weird wellness stuff and proposal of work camps for ‘addicts’ (cough fascism) and now he’s trying to find the cause of/cure autism (cough eugenics)
Feels like the progression of the hippie > antivax > cooker > Nazi theme.
yes
this is an advancement
at least they believe in germ theory now
Yeah, the crunchy to alt-right pipeline :( Gotta watch out for that in certain hobbies for sure.
This is especially disgusting though. It’s no longer a dogwhistle but a foghorn. Weird racist cult behaviour masquerading as something wholesome.
Yikes! I knew some wellness products & services were dodgy but this is something else
I haven’t had a bougie bath in a very long time. Aunt’s bath is really nice (resort sort of nice) so I had to tonight was a long day. Lush. Lit the candles, lights off. i’m not really into that that sort of thing but yea… nice.
Last time I used that thing was when I chucked hambam in for a bath when he was covered in mud / fuck knows what else.
Tonight was my night though.
Man, I think I caught a bit of whatever’s going around. No respiratory issues whatsoever, don’t think I even have a fever but the headache came back with a vengeance and I’ve been so fatigued with so little appetite that I only got out of bed for the first time at 9:30 PM - yes, PM, nearly 24 hrs straight in bed - to pee (an unholy dark liquid) and eat and drink something. Feel full after a couple of bites although my stomach is making all the food noises. Managed to keep down dinner, took two Nurofen with an antacid, back in bed and I hope to HELL that I’ll feel better tomorrow.
I have found that sleep is the best cure for this cold
hugs and get well soon 😘
It was an absolutely beautiful afternoon for a walk, I went down to the Mullum Mullum Creek trail. Mr Woof greatly enjoyed all the sniffs and the multiple patches of succulant grass to nibble on. He was less enthused by the mode of transportation to and from. Hopefully I can squeeze in a couple more fun trips for him before he has to go through the long trip to Ballarat.
Power is out for works and that always stresses me out so badly even when it’s just a few hours. It feels like being cut off from warmth, light, and other people.
I have a solar powered lamp and some power packs but they don’t hold much charge and my phone battery drops so fast (especially when I won’t stop using it). Just waiting for things to go back to normal.
I’ve also spent the day really sick.
I’m grateful for everything I have in life. I just wish it was a bit easier.
I am slowly working my way through the Discworld books using my Spotify audiobook hours. About halfway through the new(ish) penguin audio versions and I am starting to get the hype. My eyes get sore after a day on the computer and it’s a nice way to drift off.
