every day my body insists i put water in it and every day my body insists i pee that selfsame water out. basically i don’t think what sisyphus had going on was that bad

Is sedge called that because it's found at the water's edge? I could search this, but I'm quite enjoying mishearing song lyrics.

Went to the optician's yesterday, and she told me my eyes are getting better! Time to buy new glasses. Also, that I'm officially middle aged and might start losing my close vision soon.

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

In today's baffling injury, I messed up swallowing a tablet and it got stuck between the base of my tongue and my throat. Ow...

I have a portable fan that is the best thing in the hot still air at work. It charges on a usb-c... But the cable has to be the right way up.

I flossed wrong this morning and gave myself a headache.

Yesterday my alarm was set for 4.30, today it was 4. Tomorrow, I could get away with 9 o'clock. I'm not going to, but I could.

Being irritable and low spoons. Probably something to do with getting up at 4 for work. Adjusted, I'm up really late.

We have a neighborhood friendly cat who will enter cars and houses like she owns them, and have an explore. I have watched her spend far too long sniffing our toilet.

Had to think of what I would play against Death to win more years, and I decided to go for tic tac toe, and hope they get bored of the endless draws before I do.

Accidentally pda

I’m not like those other men. I love strong women, remember?

You don't get to call yourself a communist if you think it's fun and cool for tech bros to do an enclosure of the public internet spaces in order to steal the labor of all artists to accumulate more capital.

Just got stopped in the park by a man (these stories normally go bad, but not this time!) who showed me a white tailed bumblebee queen taking her first hibernation-drunk steps. She says it's spring.

you were hurt, i say to her it was deep, frightening and now that you are older you are unwinding the spool of all you kept tight and close out of fear it is not clear it is muddy, tangled messy but you have time to let the thread loosen to let the grooves it carved in your flesh heal

Just watched The Substance and, don't. Just don't. 'it's a dark fairy tale' we said through gritted teeth as the body horror somehow amped up yet again.
