Doodle of an orange cat with a piece of crumpled plastic in his mouth. He is running away quickly, wide-eyed. There is text from someone shouting "WHO IS EATING PLASTIC!!!"

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Still looking for someone, haven't found a single person so far (that I can contact). I have a 46-episode script that I need translated. This would be a paid job!

Completely unrelated to my 2am doomposting but does anyone know an English to Japanese translator, ideally with experience in screenplays?

A few months ago I got Genevieve this little cocoon bed and now every morning, when my husband does his emails or works from home, she takes herself up there like a busy business lady going to the office.

A bright eyed calico cat with ears pricked sits in a pink fluffy cat bed with a hole at the front. Someone had left it out on a fence near us so I took it home and aired it for a few days in case she’d like it, because God knows every new bed I’ve ever bought her has been met with absolute disdain!
