I don't really care, but I always find it funny when someone blocks me and I investigate only to find they have no posts, no replies and only follow 30 weirdly random people. How did I even get on their radar to offend them?

I know I've likely mentioned it before but the song has just come on and I still think it's so strange that Patrick Stewart's animatronic head was used in Duran Duran's Wild Boys Video in 1984.

Ok... I get it now. Super sniffers make quite the difference.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my US people!

Given we don't celebrate here I'll have to receive your thanks rather than give it. This can be the form of *** deposited in my ***

Please fill in whatever is most convenient to you

I can't sleep and I have to be up and out the house very early tomorrow to head to our other site, AND collect someone to give them a lift.

Time to bring out the big guns from yesteryear to drift off to.

Wow - Stranger Things still going strong. That must be 10 seasons and 240 episodes or so by the time these ones air. Impressive.

Thank you all for not pointing out the typo thing thing
Everyone doing the "first 3 words thing" thing. The first word I saw was "crabs" so I just stopped before it got worse.

Way too many memes of that man as a pig.

Let the kink pigs of all persuasions keep their identity without it being sullied!

Just realised my perfectly tagged FLAC "Now" album series is horribly out of date, stopping at Now 99. It's up to 122 now.

For years I was just doing it for completeness and a weird compulsion thing - I didn't care about any of the music at all.

So... do I move on and forget about it, or fix it?

Hey fellow LGBTQIA+—

The movie “Small Town Gay Bar” was a critical part of me understanding the importance and resilience of queer spaces.

It’s an important film to Queer history and the original director is trying to re-release it.

If you can’t contribute, please boost the signal.

Well, I was going to put on a film for a couple hours (as I let a foot peel soak in).

Meet Joe Black popped up and I realised I'd never seen it so thought it would do.

3 hours?! It's 3 hours?!

Reminder that trans identities are valid and deserve respect. Our trans siblings know who they are better than the cis people trying to legislate against them, and they deserve our respect and unquestioning support.

Empathy is a verb. It’s never too late to start practicing getting better at it.

I'm having to say "phenibut" too often today. I don't seem to be able to do it with my serious face on and I'm very worried I'm going to say "furry butt" by mistake

The heating isn't working today at work.

I've just got an email saying that as part of the investigation into the boiler there will be a fire alarm test at 930am.

Just been sent a photo of a sweatshirt by someone and asked if it was mine and I'd left it at their place by mistake.

Not mine, but even the label at the neck was unrecognisable to me. It had "M" on it. I don't think I've ever seen that before...

This week is draaaagging! It's been feeling like it should be Friday for days now.

I don't have much hope that a 3 hours perfomance meeting this morning is going to speed it up either 😭

After being very complimentary about how I looked, after finding out my age a straight girl at the bar has just taken a selfie of us and sent it to her gay grandad.

To be fair he's only 8 years older than me but I'm feeling complimented and then slapped.

I might be into it though so all good
Well this is lovely after the train. Y'all know the e's in Heineken are upturned so that they look like smiley faces, right?

Choo choo! Off to Edinburgh *again* for the evening. I've been more sociable in the past few weeks than the past few years.

And if you want books about magical schools, the lovely @craigschaeferbooks.com has a recent series with two books out now. She's also trans and has lots of LGBTQ+ characters in her books - so is a perfect author to try (not just this series).

Gay drama coming out of a club on Halloween with an axe murderer pissed off and yelling at Mario for having his tongue down captain America's throat is hysterically funny.

No reading glasses so can't tell if typed ok but what a hoot

I'm off for a shag
