It's pretty much fallen out of fashion now in favour of just saying "at," which I think is a shame, but the Dutch for @ used to be "apenstaartje," which literally translates to "little monkey's tail"

As ever, do with this information what you will

No harm, but at what point did anyone think Sharon Osbourne was an arbiter for good or rational thinking.

Mentally extremely normal thanks, but driven to distraction by these misaligned bullet points.

I wasn't allowed a Baby G watch or those Adidas tracksuit bottoms with poppers, because these are "common". I also wasn't allowed to call chestnuts conkers, because this is common too 🤷‍♀️

My friend just had a baby after lots of heartache, so that's nice innit. Having a small cry and then I'll resume normal snarky business.

My photo shows a wall carving in low relief of a hedgehog emerging from its burrow or shelter. Detail from a wall relief of a hunting scene in the Tomb of Mereruka, Vizier of King Teti, Sixth Dynasty, c. 2330 BC. 

The hedgehog is depicted in profile facing right with the front portion of its body emerging from the somewhat triangular-shaped burrow or shelter, perhaps a mound of soil. Its body is rounded, with two short forelegs. It has a narrow face with a pointed muzzle, an almond-shaped eye, and a pointed ear. A horizontal line across the middle of its body shows the delineation between its soft underbelly and its spiny back (spines not depicted) On either side of the hedgehog and its burrow there is a low mound topped by vertical wavy lines representing desert grass. Ground level is represented by a horizontal line.

In ancient Egyptian art, hedgehogs were sometimes associated with protection and regeneration, likely because of their defensive spines and habit of curling up, as well as being nocturnal animals with the ability to see in the dark (perfect for the underworld). They were also hunted for food. This little hedgehog in Mereruka’s tomb may carry two meanings at once. A hunted food offering to provide nourishment and also magical protection for his rebirth.

Some 4,300 years ago, an Egyptian artisan carved this little hedgehog emerging from its burrow! 🦔❤️

Lovely naturalistic detail from a limestone wall relief in the Tomb of Mereruka at Saqqara. Old Kingdom, Sixth Dynasty, c. 2330 BC.

Earlier I found myself thinking I could bring slippers into work, seeing as nobody sees me being a dolly bird all day. Slippery slope though innit.

Not to be hyperbolic on main, but I've never seen as big as one as I let out the window earlier. Incredible racket from my guy as well.

I'm reading here that for the 40 minutes that Artemis II was out of contact, the astronauts talked about how much they were looking forward to the Louis CK Netflix special while listening to Morrissey's solo albums.
