Even a malignant narcissist of his level must know deep down inside what a small, petty, miserable excuse for a human being he is. Why else would he self-aggrandise and seek to belittle all those who were so much better, and popular, than him. Rip all of this shit down when the time comes.

Glad my druid is a hopeless herb hoarder while simultaneously weeping that I had to buy an extra warband bank tab *wince*. Still, at least she can make loads of dye I guess. #WoWHousing #Warcraft

Arf. Tried it. Not a single one of my phone contacts is on here. Which is odd, as my husband is and he's definitely in my contacts.

/drops in Oh no! Mick Foley /reads trending Yay! Mick Foley Took his time, mind.

Glad to confirm that Cleo is recovering from her surgery and lives to fight another day, albeit with one segment somewhat lessened in volume. No idea where that's all gone. 1/2

open.substack.com/pub/jonty/p/... My old colleague Jonty Bloom makes the point well - live your life so that Trump celebrates your death

Ooh such a surprise. I guess that ass-kissing state visit was a bit of a waste of time then, while Trump also tries* to sue the British taxpayers for $5bn. GTFO. *heavy on the 'tries'. Good luck with that, Chump.

The couple who live in the cottage at the bottom of our road always decorate two bicycles for special occasions. One outside the day centre (video) and one on the wall at the side of the Esk. Always cheers me up to see them (and the local yarn bombers).

I've always wondered if the BBC video player volume going up to 11 was a Spinal Tap tribute. (Move the volume slider)

The BBC News live feed about the death of Rob and Michele Reiner is on black. Quite unusual for someone other than royalty.

Looks like the Esk made it into the park last night judging by the 'leaf lines'. I walked the girls in the dark this morning so stayed away from the waters edge. Glad I did now, as Miah loves to poop down tufts near the edge. 💩 I really wish she wouldn't.. maybe she has a thing for bum tickles.

Seen the Lie Social post from DJT, managing to make a tragedy all about himself as usual. No I'm not posting a screenshot, go and find it. It has to be seen to be believed. There really is no bottom. Vile. Why are so many good people leaving us while this orange stain on humanity still persists.

Good grief, People Magazine is trash. The bunch of ghouls shouldn't be blurting out 'facts' while investigations are ongoing.

Awful news about Rob Reiner this morning. Fantastic director and truly decent human being. I have never seen The Princess Bride, and yet can quote quite a few lines despite that. His impact on cinema should never be underrated or forgotten. RIP.

The Esk is frisky tonight. Even the ducks are staying out of the river.

Finished the house exterior yesterday. Unless they increase the amount of decor we can place, I'm maxxed out. It took a hellish amount of boulders to disguise the fact that Horrible Horde Hut™️doesn't have a base. My main is an engineer, so expect many contraptions. #WoWHousing #Warcraft

I was bound to get Whammed given there's a Wham documentary on in the backgrounnd. I blame @ninjabeaveruncut.bsky.social , he had the remote.

Just watched this with the same face the audience has on in The Producers. WTAF

Not a sausage about this on the BBC website either that I can find. Robin Ince is a treasure. The world could do with more like him.

We call him (Stephen) Yaxley-Lennon in this house. His actual name, or "Tommy Ten Names". Either will do for the obnoxious scrote.

Yeah... not sure I like the look of this.

Yikes, we're in the Amber area tomorrow. The Esk was really high on a non-conspicuous day last week. Shudder to think what it'll do tomorrow..

And if anyone decides to @ me over my use of "sundowning". Just.. eff off. We had to live through my dad's dementia. After they put the morphine driver in I sat with him for 3 nights without sleep so he didn't die alone, only for him to die when Lewis give me a couple of hours off to go for a shower

Gramps is sundowning again. Except it's probably not him anyway. Does anyone believe he can type that much hot air on a phone with his pudgy wee fingers? Alt text truncated by 805 because .. character limit.

/Comes back from long bath. I typed Superman. I meant Supergirl. *sigh. I'm sure we'll catch it on streaming at some point. Needy dogs and a lack of tolerance for the general public stopped us from going to the cinema years ago.

Okay was largely 'meh' about Superman but a) Milly Alcock and then watched the trailer and b) Lobo!

Waiting on a parcel that was supposed to be here by 12pm. Given Royal mail say it's at my "local delivery centre" in Warwickshire, I pity the poor bastard who has to drive all the way to (checks notes) the Scottish Borders. I'm guessing it might be here tomorrow. Hopefully.

That was... fun. 😊 I didn't get Hexcodle #854 :( Score: 50% ⏬⏫✅⏬⏬✅ ⏬⏫✅⏬🔽✅ ⏬⏫✅⏬⏬✅ ⏬⏫✅⏬⏬✅ ⏬⏫✅🔽🔽✅ hexcodle.com

Big tidy up this morning. Took all the red root floaters out so I had a clear run at trimming the ludwigia and sessiflora. Cleaned all the acrylic plant corrals, vacced the gravel and topped up. The surface is spotty as I just fed the fish before putting the floaters back in. Limpets though.. GAH

Thinking of getting a whippet puppy for Christmas? Well the short answer is DON'T. However, if you can't be dissuaded, at least read this and follow the link to the Breed Council. whippetrescue.org.uk/please-think...

*Were* your closest allies. Been to the US a few times, loved it there. Enough for us to blow a chunk of cash on our honeymoon in NYC. As things are, I wouldn't set foot in the US.

"Realise that endless flattery of Trump, promising to spend 5% of GDP on defence, or offering him breakfast with a king … is just not going to cut it.” Glad someone's said it. That state visit was cringeworthy. Sucking up to Mango Mussolini via our unelected monarch.

As a female, it is really interesting to see all the hate Quentin Tarantino is getting for his comment on Paul Dano despite his weirdo fetishization of women and blatant misogyny throughout his entire career.

I a surprise to absolutely no-one. Ellison's Paramount/Skydance back into the bidding for Warner Bros.

Got all excited about crafting the Goblin Brightly Lit Comfortable Sofa. Aaaand yeh. Did they even test this thing? at 58% of full size my ass hits the back and I disappear into it like a renegade hamster. #WoWHousing

I know a lot of people are moaning, but I think they've done a pretty decent job of the housing in #WoW . Now I just need to try and keep the sheep off the furniture.... Still got oodles to do, but pleased with the way it's going. 😊

I had to turn the volume up to listen to this properly. "trying to get a sun tan"? FFS, just own what you've done. Don't try and make lame jokes about the people you've extrajudicially killed.

Sleepy whippet by candlelight... ❤️

Also. That trophy looks like hands reaching from the depths of hell to grasp the planet. Possibly appropriate, just not in the way intended.

Could someone call a doctor to surgically remove Infantino's tongue from Trump's arse please? 🤮 Who the fuck does he think he is awarding a 'peace prize'? Dumbest timeline etc..

Boycott the BBC eh? Don't threaten me with a good time, pound shop Trump.

I didn't really want to sit on the sofa anyway... 🤷‍♀️ #whippets #DogsOfBluesky

Cormorant down on the Esk earlier. I feel sorry for the fish, those things are absolute machines when it comes to catching their food. Sorry for the crap photo. Phone. 🤷‍♀️

I really should un-sub from a lot of the email lists from places I've shopped at but my evil subconscious goes "what if you miss a bargain....?" So I just sigh and delete them every time.

The amount of spam I get from M&S is not as irritating as the fact that my phone emboldens the first 4 letters on an email alert so I think my brother (Mark) is emailing me. Which would be a goddamn miracle as he almost never gets in contact.

Just got a bunch of botanicals through for the tanks. Bell cups, putka pods and a big lotus head. The shrimp are gonna love me... 🦐🦐🦐

Didn't realise until today when I tried to view something that imgur no longer works in the UK thanks to the online safety act. I guess they didn't value a whole country's user base enough to put age verification on.

Thanks! He also got me the pre-purchase of Midnight, so now I won't be left behind when housing early access goes live. 🥳

Christened the sketchbook! I'm going to try and do not-shit sketches as no chance of pulling sheets from this thing if anything doesn't work. I've been grabbing stills from video of the girls playing with a view to making lino prints. Tbh the two I've tried so far are terrible. Practice practice...
