Flexing chaotic kitchen draws...
Ok. I hate this. Knives. Forks. Spoons.Where are the soup spoons you animal?
Also very envious of the space you have.
I'm jealous too. I would kill for drawers wide enough to have multiple different knives all in their own compartments alongside various little utensils without anything being on top of or obstruction (or obstructed by) anything else. I've got a bit of space at the back of my drawers not ordinarily used, but the drawers don't pull out very far, hence the unused
I see your perforated ladle (far left of bottom drawer) and raise you a pair of herb scissors (surprisingly useful and a bit of a fave). Now if I can only find them under everything else ...
I won gin rummy. 5 to 2. Second complementary cuppa in the morning coming to me.
yesss
I know 👏 👏 👏
Ah man, I think I need to stop commenting on anything divisive on the internet.
I’ll post something that’s intended to be a fun fact or a conversational tidbit (or a smartarse little joke to get a laugh) and someone will take it really seriously. Like they think it’s a political endorsement or a personal challenge or something.
It isn’t. I don’t want the stress man. I’m mostly just interested in hanging out and chiming in with something vaguely related to the topic
Ditto
I find it much worse on Reddit, but even here there's a fair few people who like to be intentionally obtuse
I get so excited to share a cool fact or off the cuff joke that I don’t realise how it comes across
It says more about them than you
I watched a video on this modern pc that runs Windows 98, but it's like 500 Euros.
Then I looked up how to install windows 98 on an old thinclient. But it's complicated and you could lose Bluetooth, WiFi, and USB ports.
If you want a computer for authentic retro gaming you could put WINE on a cheap thin client since WINE runs old programs better than windows

Apparently new meds mean Lifeblood can no longer take my blood. Oh well. Still got a honeycomb Nippys.
You gave it your best shot. Thank you.
Have been talking to the bank. I threw up.
Don't give up. We bought a shit house in a shit house suburb while working shit house jobs with shit house pay driving shit house cars but it's our shit house and we will grow old together giving each other shit. Hopefully soon you will have that and not have to put up with shit house landlords. Best wishes.

Half an hour’s airing on the balcony with a cup of mint tea.
I’m going back to bed
Bought a nice birthday card, spoiled it with my crap writing. Ugh.
Don’t know if anyone else has that problem, but if I don’t write regularly my hand writing goes downhill and I can’t seem to write half decently unless I’m seated.
People who have effortlessly beautiful handwriting give me so much envy.
effortlessly beautiful handwriting
Gramps always used to say "good handwriting is a dunces accomplishment". He was a doc so checked out.

Hello, I am here. Never left just stopped posting. I was quitting smoking, since new years. I've been withdrawing, and all the lovely symptoms that go along with it have been wrecking me.
I made it to today and relapsed.
I don't want to die of cancer.
I WILL try again after this pouch. 💪🏼
Good to hear from you, Spud.
The first step to change is realising that it would be good to change something. You can do it. Don't give up 💜
Saw the phrase somewhere, "I will one day, but not today."

I don’t even recognise myself in it.
