This is it. I'm just so *tired*.

they are SO HANDSOME!

Guys, I mean... *slightly hysterical laughter* How do we fix this? How do we fix publishing?

Him: What would be your dream job
Me: Oh that's easy. Sitting on the back of a motorbike on the Tour de France pushing idiots into the ditch
Him: Oh come off it there's no such job
Me:

I knooooow, but I really love going to movies in the theatre. :)

Yeah, on both counts. I'll 100% go see it again in the cinema because I loved it, but I'm annoyed they're doing some kind of Doomsday tie-in.

*dances you happily*!

I wonder if the Democrats would have the brass tits to do this if they got a 2/3rds majority in Congress.

I am SO HAPPY FOR YOU, OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

Stupid humor is by no means the sole proprietary realm of dads. :)

no, altho man those hit hard

A trope map of The Purloined Poodle. It says: Why pugs are the politest dogs in the park. The Irish wolfhound is the detective. The human just helps because he has thumbs. There is nothing more important than poodle recovery. Fights crime, eats sausage.

If you like dogs, I wrote four meaty mysteries featuring Oberon the Irish Wolfhound. His lil’ buddy Starbuck and his Druid, Atticus, help out a bit, but he’s the brilliant crime fighter and he deserves a snack. So start with THE PURLOINED POODLE!

That should take care of you.

I mean given how much CEOs get paid surely it would be by far the most effective cost-cutting measure available?

I...could do more, but I'm not going to. :p

That is truly amazing and an insane coincidence. What!!! 😍😍😍😍

WHAT!

Landlordism is a scourge & a crime against humanity. The few good landlords do not excuse what is being allowed to happen in Ireland (& the rest of the West). Nationalise all rentals, including Air BnBs. Once everyone is housed decently, calculate rents based on income using the formula councils use

Does it help if I promise I will not be getting through all, or perhaps even half, of it today?

My mom holding an embroidery of a trilobite wearing a crown of flowers.

My mom - a geologist - gets out the embroidery that I made her every spring. Because trilobites wearing a crown of flowers are a harbinger of springtime.

Still morning in Brisbane.

Resplendent in purple hues, Brisbane city by the river.

I need to update this as the newly built Kangaroo Point pedestrian bridge crosses this scene.
