Nah. It’s no problem at all, we can handle nuances. If I need to be specific I use 24hr. If someone invites me over tomorrow for a cup of tea and I say I’ll be over 2ish they know what I mean. It’s all about context.
Madeira is pretty cool. The runway is on stilts, the approach is tricky and requires training, the cafe has a big balcony so you can watch the pilots do a tricky landing on a stilted runway with a beer.
- Should also add the question 21- legally smoked in every conceivable fucked up place including on planes and underground trains made of wood.
Incontinentia… Incontinentia Buttocks.
This is a distinct symptom of dementia. Really upsetting to see.
Miniature gm giraffe, about waist height. Cantering about with its tiny blue tongue. I love that little freak.
When I’m running out of books I start asking anyone interesting that I’m talking to what they are reading. If they are into that book I buy it on the spot, while we’re still talking. Occasionally they are reading something completely shit, but I’ve hit some gems. Then you have something in common with that person which is a bonus.
I taught my daughter to read during covid when the schools were closed. ‘The’ was the first word she learned to read, and I did exactly what you suggest, pausing for her to read it. It really helped. When my workshop reopened I made her a silver badge of the word ‘the’ to celebrate.
I call for opening up Trump and removing his windpipe

Do crazy slutty makeup sometimes, just to feel crazy and slutty.
Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake. So fascinating. https://www.merlinsheldrake.com/entangled-life
I once watched him talk to a group of 16-19 yr old students. When asked why he wasn’t backing Corbyn he said he wouldn’t back an ‘old white guy’. Discriminating based on three protected characteristics is no way to talk politics with young people, I found him disappointing.
I have a cube of tungsten at work that is 40mm x 40 mm, it is comedically heavy. This thing would be nuts.
This is known as a thought terminating cliché. They can be more than just annoying. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought-terminating_clich%C3%A9
This is such a shame, I love Neal’s Yard. You go in there, and they just keep handing you little pieces of different delicious cheeses until you crumble and give them all of your money. It’s such a charming way of doing things, I overspend every single time, and never regret it.
Imagine thinking that you’re tougher than context.
