Oh no! My chill yoga class normally filled with oldies has gone far too sporty. I missed the last two weeks and my head is still spinning from all the fast poses.

I knew a writer who was “offered” a gig there and quit their day job only to find out there was no gig. Be careful out there.

Ugh, every time some loolaa, or Lula for that matter, says Ukraine should give up land, I would like the reporter to ask “What part of your country would you give up?”

I am merely aiding the police in their inquiries, it is simply a way of passing the time for me, and the constables, they are gracious enough to accept my assistance, all unpaid, of course. If you, too, will humor me by joining the other guests in the parlor I would like to share some of my findings

Plus one French agency has already decided that I have the same surname as my kid (no thanks), and want me to provide proof that I changed it when it’s always been the same.

Trying to assemble info about employment in Ireland for retirement info (not yet but it’s all complicated so needs to be done in advance) and I realised that the tax office and all my payslips have a misspelling of my first name.
Oh the French are going to love this.

My 14-year-old self would never have guessed that, in 50 years' time, all the world's music would be available at the click of a button, you'd navigate the globe by carrying a tiny computer around in your pocket, and the US President would post a video of himself shitting over American citizens.
