Insomnia and doom scrolling observations: Part 255. Instagram bands advertising their music have the wildest names. Today's winner? Nunsofthetundra. A wimple is not a sensible clothing choice for that environment and has a high risk of 'The Flying Nun' effect in the high winds.

Well, I suppose for UK users of the Google maps app, #Google have taken a suitably British, apologetic approach to being morons.

What? You don't try and take a photo of your eye in the dark at night when you have insomnia? You're weird... 👁️ 👄 👁️

Urgh. 50 series cards horribly expensive (no idea why I expected anything else). 4070ti Super ordered to satisfy my gaming (and heating) needs.

Sat in Nero's in Glasgow: Woman: don't want to leave my bag unattended Man: just leave it, nobody will lift it. Me: imagining grabbing the bag, waiting for them to return and standing, waving the bag and shouting TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS! DON'T LISTEN TO HIM! So, coming off the meds is going well.

What timing... anyone helping to prop up the platform want to adopt the Elongated Muskrat method of excitedly engaging their audience? No?

Interesting to see people who decamped to #bluesky en-masse but can't...quite... stop shelving their morals to post on Twatter. Hardly surprising. When you work for billionaires (whatcha going to do?) but saddens me. Will the TikTok debacle wake people up? When will this place get a bit Musky? 🤔

Lol. People losing their minds about the #tiktokban on both sides of the argument. Imagine if everyone concerned put their energy into something fun and worthwhile - the possibilities! :D

Painters and decorators out there. Is there an unwritten rule that any quote that includes painting a white ceiling white is automatically doubled cos fuck trying to complete the job without missing a bit? Because you should. Rant completely unrelated to painting the ceiling yesterday, of course.

I know the climate is changing , but... really @metoffice.bsky.social ? How do I get a Yellow Warning for Rain and Snow with this unseasonably warm outlook? Warning should be 'Careful, umbrellas may turn inside out and hair will get damp making you look a bit wild when ordering a skinny latté.."

Enjoying being in my own #indianajones movie playing the game. Trying to see how far I can get without using my revolver - so far, stotting fascists over the head with brooms, candlesticks and wrenches is doing the trick nicely. Good fun game.

After a spectacular drop off 5ft, landing perfectly flat, screen up, my Google Pixel 7 pro is living in borrowed time. Its rattle confirms a loose board inside and anything remotely exciting causes it to heat up and shut down, like me trying to run to the chippy. Amazing.

Loved the characters I spoke with at a craft fair yesterday. Young store holder beside me a very quiet, aspiring illustrator. Bought a couple of their prints. From Odessa. Can't begin to imagine. Had some lovely conversations and completely ignored the obvious.

Last night, I decided to make a list of 60 things I want to do before I am 60. Work has been so busy that, so far, my list is at..... 1. That's to own and wear a Vivienne Westwood jacket. The brighter the lining the better. Bizarre number of pockets. Whatever. Anyone else have a bucket list?

Braved snow. Pushed mum's car out the drive and safely got dad to the football for our first Saints game together since being season ticket holders in the 90's. Alzheimer's and an essential tremor makes independent living a challenge for dad, but we still love to torture ourselves on a Saturday.

When you're at your busiest at work, what you REALLY need is a visit from the insomnia fairy, sprinkling Red Bull in your eyes. #insomnia 🙄

Woke up this morning and mashed up the lyrics to "Bed of Roses" and "Blaze of Glory" by Bon Jovi in my head. " I want to lay you down in a blaze of glory" Was an odd moment.

Scrolling bluesky is actually fairly relaxing. Still an enabler for my procrastination - but far, far fewer Reich vibes.
