A Scots toast: Lang may yer lum reek. An Irish Toast: May you live as long as you want and not want as long as you live. A French Toast: Cinnamon, eggs, bread and maple syrup

Fool me once, Shame on you. #Fool me twice, End up as an unsolved missing person case #vss365

“We’re lost!”, Sarah wailed. “Will we ever escape this #labyrinth ?” Um, actually, this is a maze,” Hoggle replied. “Labyrinths only have a single path with no branches and are designed for contemplative medita—“ “Forget you!” she said, pushing him down an oubliette. #vss365

#vss365 1/2 #Dust Virtual Malcolm continued to work but no one could figure out where the software was running. They switched off everything they could find until there was only one green light still blinking on the switch. They followed the network cable, through the plenum

7 things every child needs to hear 1. I love you 2. I am proud of you 3. I’m sorry 4. I forgive you 5. I’m listening 6. Capitalism is a tool of the rich designed to keep the poor struggling, oppressed, divided and docile 7. You have what it takes

‘part from me, Maw n Paw had four chilluns. Chastity, Verity, #Purity and Peaches. Peaches really hated his name but he got real good at fightin’ #vss365

Levels of #creeper 1. Online contact 2. Send unsolicited pics 3. Know where they work 4. Know where they live 5. Send unsolicited “gifts” 6. Visit work 7. Visit home 8. Enter home while they’re out 9. Enter home unobserved while they’re in 10. Arrested or Killed #vss365

I did it daily for two years, then took a break. Now I dabble when the prompt word sparks something in my brain. My lack of #devotion to #vss365 is why there was no story yesterday.

Is it me or is it the fungus that thinks it’s me because it invaded what was me? How long have I been here? There’s no way of knowing. What are the #parameters of my new consciousness? I can think, I can’t see, hear, taste or smell. Reminds me of that old computer game. #vss365

Can we stop making live action remakes of everything and start making muppet remakes of every film and musical

It’s odd that I can still think. It must be the hyphae of the #mycelium from the black mold here in the cellar mixing with my nerves and neurons. I wonder how long it will be before someone finds what’s left of me. #vss365

Today I learned that the character Paul Stamets, in Star Trek Disovery, who communes with the #mycelium network to pilot the spore drive is named for the Mycologist Paul Stamets, author of various books and who has a magic mushroom named after him #vss365

We are neither #Citizen nor #Denizen of Earth but rather, Stranger and Foreigner. The thing that is us, our “soul” is made of more refined matter, albeit clothed in flesh. We came from the stars and to them we shall return when our brief sojourn in mortality ends. #vss365

This is it, humanity’s last stand. Alone we’re doomed, our only chance for survival, ally with The Cockroach or The #Tardigrade. Both had hundreds of millions of years of evolution, massively accelerated because of our nuke wars. Which to choose? Either way we’re screwed #vss365

Montell was robbed #strictly

Saying #yes to everything is a recipe for disaster, just look at Danny whatsisname. Sure, say yes to a lot more than you do now; open yourself to wild possibilities, live life and have fun but remember, “No” can be just as, if not more, powerful. #vss365

After Jean came home from hospital following a near death experience her left fist remained tightly closed for the rest of her life. When she finally passed, and her grip released, a large golden pearl fell to the bed, a #souvenir of her previous journey. #vss365

I didn’t come into this world screaming or crying; I was delivered by caesarean section and when it’s time to go #home to that God who gave me life, I want to have the legal choice to go on my terms with medical assistance, lawfully and with no stigma #AssistedDyingBill #vss365

“How do you #train to be a guru? Yoga, meditation, deep pondering on the nature of the universe?” “Exactly, but most men have it within them,” the guru said, while thinking, sit on your a$$, have an empty brain, and whatever you think of in the shower. That’s what I did. #vss365

“Mustn’t grumble, can’t #complain, not too bad.” Jack had heard old folks use words like that all his life. Now in his forties, everything ached, knees creaked, the slightest wrong move made something new hurt. How could they have been so upbeat and not constantly gripe. #vss365

Bitter sweet memories Keep me awake Sweet like strawberries But not quite Tart lemon mornings Await my arise So i’ll #delay A little while longer Remembering Your used to be Apricot soft peachy face #vss365 #pic Freepik

The speaker crackled and a voice we’d not hear before asked, “Has anyone got a screwdriver?” Jim thought he’d heard all the excuses for #delayed trains: leaves, sheep, even a balloon on the line, driver slept in, floodwaters, but this one was new. #vss365 #TrueStory

Piloting his small fishing boat among the #skerries, Donald smiled as a solitary gull kept pace alongside, coasting in the wind. Soon there would be dozens, squabbling noisily for scraps when he hauled in his catch and gutted and cleaned them on the fillet table. #vss365

Publisher: Do you want to put an LLM clause in the copyright statement? Me: Definitely. How specific can we get? Publisher: As specific as you like.

You’d think that you’d get used to seeing the sunrise every 90 minutes working here on the ISS but no, every chance we get, most of the crew spend time in the cupola just watching that big ball of flaming gas appear on the #horizon. I love the thrill, every time. #vss365

Deputy headmaster and technical drawing teacher, Mr Blood, had a reputation for being tough. After teaching gym when the regular PE teacher was sick he told us to get in the showers and #hop to it. As one, 30 boys hopped all the way. The look on his face was priceless. #vss365

They sat looking at the teeming #rain. It’s beautiful back home. We’ll have to pack up a wet tent, it’ll rot. I could’ve been golfing but no, let’s go camping you said. Now the kids won’t stop arguing. Dave stopped for a breath. Sue interrupted. Let’s play murder. #vss365

The cave was warm and dry and sound of the #rain on the rocks outside was calming and helped the guru meditate. He loved it. As an added bonus, it usually meant no visitors, well, no human ones at least; the occasional furry woodland creature sometimes sought refuge. #vss365

This is the story I wish o could have written for yesterday’s #vss365 x.com/chaofarrell/...

I don’t know who needs to hear this but today I realised that cats and dogs are fidget toys for neurotypicals
