We used to do real science
Just back from the football, where the six-year-old behind me shrieked "FKN PASS IT":
• every time we touched the ball
• every time they touched the ball
• during every break in play
Until about the sixtieth minute when he switched to "THAT'S SHOCKING", and in the last five minutes just "REFEREEEE"
• every time we touched the ball
• every time they touched the ball

Piano-playing neighbour usually treats us to a Saturday morning medley of early-Nineties AOR and the occasional jaunty soap theme
Today she's joined by a flute and a recorder for an extended fantasia on I Know Him So Well

Big band nite at the place
Somewhere Over the Rainbow is not naturally a sleazy song, but that reading had a leopardskin posing pouch, a cigarillo behind its ear and visible cilantro stuck between its yellowing teeth

I've been collecting pandemic era signs that nobody can be bothered to take down or remove. There's something grimly fascinating about this. Putting them up was urgent and important; removing them is nobody's job. How long will some of these hang around?

Sitter i et mikrobryggeri taproom i et tidligere jernstøperi. Acid jazz og oldemors stuemøbler
En tosk i logo-skyggelue skrur stadig lysnivået brått opp og ned. "Er det atmosfærisk nå? Nå? Nå?"

The first (1955) Danish edition of Ray Bradbury’s FAHRENHEIT 451. Later editions did not convert the title, so this is the only SI-compatible edition! 🎢

If you're having a hard time, if things seem impossible and grim... just remember that World of Sport once covered the International Clown Diving Championships.
It won't help with any of what we're all facing but god, it's a good thing to have in your head.

In the pub
The bloke adjacent is also in the pub
And there has he been for several hours
That is about the nineteenth time
He has used the word "myriad"
To mean "any number larger than one"

i’m terrible at chess but there’s no point in getting good because i already look like i’d be good at chess. you see me at the park and i tell you i’m actually a grandmaster you’d be like “no shit.” it’s only worth getting good at chess if you’re a big buff guy or super hot girl or maybe a child
