If your Granny didn’t have a nickname did you even have a Granny?

I also adored her performance in The Remains of The Day.

Queen!

Holy Thursday Batman!

Yes! And yes!

A recipe instruction that suggests I’m barely keeping it together

Irish Times recipe uncannily aware of my emotional fragility

Yes,but what about piranhas 😱?

Picture of the staff who operate my account:

I am so sorry this happened to you. You describe the exact feelings I had when I broke my ankle. I had surgery and the best thing for me afterwards was a knee scooter. It gave me a lot of independence. Being non weight bearing for 3 months the scooter gives you a little dignity back.

Are you effing kidding me with this shit?

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.

Beautiful sentiment 🥰

Agus mise, although not so notable.
