This book Tells you how to handle this, along with everything else you need to know to rebuild all systems in society from scratch should there be some sort of time machine based accident. It’s a good read!

I used to work for a general builder we all called Nick The Freak. We were in our mid twenties and having a pretty good time of things off site. I used to call up the gaffer and say “Nick man, I can’t make it to the job today, I feel like shit” and he would say- yea Squeezer, Mars is in alignment with Saturn this week. Understandable. I’ve never appreciated bullshit so much.

See, I’m not a fan of the royal family, but I’m pretty sure Charles would never talk to that cunt for a second, and for that I give him a tiny shred of respect.

Followed government pay guidelines and froze pay for 12 fucking years.

I’m an artist, maker and workshop technician. Apollo refugee.

Not just globally, also locally. At my house.

The man is in the wrong shoes both figuratively and literally. Literally just seems funnier sometimes.

I broke my toe by dropping a medical kit tin on it.

That I needed a little validation as an artist. I’ve been making things all my life, and always felt like a bit of an imposter. I didn’t really care, or thought I didn’t. I recently entered some work to the Royal Academy show, which was accepted, then quickly sold for £1000. I have to admit it felt pretty good.

Wtf Jacob.

Alzheimer’s/dementia in general. I’m not dealing with it.

Watching my father slowly disappear has made me hyper aware of the temporary nature of my own consciousness.

Have you listened to’The Retrievals’ the Serial podcast? Terrifying systematic denial of women’s pain.

I went to a party in the top bit once. It’s just a sort of empty corridor that you can hire. Amazing views down the river.

The shit we caught when the babies went to nursery was mad. I’d never even heard of these things in humans! Slapped cheek, hand foot and mouth, noro and rota viruses? All that stuff was coming in to the house suddenly. Yikes.

We were standing in the pub, and I’d just bought a round. I gave my mate a fresh pint, and like a complete piss head he let it slip through his fingers. It landed on the floor between us with a thunk, not a single drop spilled. It just nailed the landing, completely solid. Fucking witchcraft.

“Deny thy counter and refuse thy knife”

I’ve had a couple of women follow me in to public toilets and commandeer aim. I had to muster unbelievable levels of concentration to get it done. Some bit of my brain has never worked at that level before or since.

1 & 2 - as CEO of The Happy Oyster company and Gravel Unlimited lI’m absolutely smashing it financially, even with the terminal lamentations of a million misled oysters in my ears.

Now I want Katsu

Portishead - Glory Box & Wandering Star Both bangers, both slow.

Channel name is Geowizard. Such a great guy.

I love a simple Shepherd’s pie, but once I had Shepherd’s pie at Heston Blumenthal’s restaurant/pub thing, and fuck me blind, it was the absolute tits.

That looks fascinating! Pricey on the second hand market it seems. I’ll have to shop around. Thanks, great counterpoint.

This reminds me of when we found we could bulk buy ephedrine over the counter from chemists in sub saharan Africa and go to uninhabited islands off the coast and get messed up. Happy days.

Seeing that you’re in the UK I recommend Facetheory. Good products and there’s always an offer code for 20% off. https://www.facetheory.com/

How can you be so bent out of shape as a human to think that fucking over kids at the Evelina is the way to spend your day, to make your daily bread.

My father said the same thing, often. I say the same now. The reality is more complicated, horribly so.

Feels like a super power when you’re scuba diving and you see all the other divers holding their noses!

I love watching BMX videos. I’m old and don’t ride, but hey, plenty of people watch sports that they don’t play. I just happen to like BMX.

Human nits.

Skate 2. So many bangers.

Probably on YouTube then, I’ll track him down :)

Sounds great, have just downloaded. Does it outperform the recognition of iPhone photos for plants etc?

I’ve preemptively taken your advice on board, and the sad reality is that the glut was short lived. Looks like I’ll be going up the road again…

I’d add Hey Duggee! It’s a BBC CBeebies thing, me and my kids loved it pre - Bluey, and it still hits a spot.
