Important info from my branch of The Green Party.... linktr.ee/SWEGP

I've had wine & a lot of haribo so the odds of me sleeping tonight are a solid zero

Finally got round to getting out the garden table - first alfresco dinner of the year!

You know it's new @beefanddairy.bsky.social day when you find yourself Googling claves on your morning commute

The weather has finally cooled enough to move, so I could really do with being at home getting chores done, but it's more important to be out canvassing to win those recently vacated Reform seats. #VoteGreen #Thurrock

Knew the Rik Mayall documentary would end with me in tears and I wasn't wrong

I just called it cereal water instead of milk if anyone was wondering how my brain is coping in the heat 🫠

What I don't understand is how it's just getting more and more humid

Opened the back door to let the breeze in & the rush of hot air made me shout no & close it again 🔥

If the CEO of my employer wanted a quick win to get people to like him, he could tell us not to work this afternoon. It's too hot. Even sitting still I'm sweating out more fluids than I can take in. Mind you, the house removal gang 2 doors down have it far worse than me.

How big of a nerd am I? Work chat got on to storms in Scotland right now and I felt the need to not only share www.lightningmaps.org but to call it one of my favourite websites 😔

I have all by myself installed fly screens on the 2 back bedroom windows. OK they may not be entirely 100% straight or neat but the are perfectly adequate and I'm happy with that. They aren't permanent fixtures so can I can get rid of them if I want another better attempt.

This afternoon, because I've been in zoom calls & not doing any admin work, I've been working in the relatively cool kitchen with its stone floor, in front of a mini air con unit. Nipped upstairs for something - it's 30 degrees in my bedroom. Guess I'm not sleeping tonight 🥵

Whatever is wrong with Dribbles the Cat's skin looks like it might be treatable with antibiotics. 7 day course of tablets incoming. You'd think by now she'd be ace at taking medication but it's still a fight to get anything in her. If that works, thyroidectomy is the next treatment.

C2C have cancelled a bunch of trains in anticipation of heat related problems, so I'm heading home & hoping I'll get there. Work have said to WFH this week to avoid travel chaos. No argument from me!

Why can't I add my TV licence info to iPlayer to stop that annoying pop up from popping up

I've been awake since 2.30am because of cat shenanigans. I'm not in a tolerant mood. The next person who annoys me may not be greated with a reasonable response.

I, a news nerd, am actively avoiding the weather news. I know it's hot. I don't need all the scare headlines - especially from media outlets that amplify politicians of a certain persuasion who deny climate change & want us to burn even more fossil fuels.

Alien Autopsy Scandal on Sky is a hard recommend from me

Thought I'd do a thing by myself, bit of quiet zen time, no talking to people required. I have a queue of people want to join in. The things I need people for - tumbleweed. 🤷

Happy #FathersDay to the best dad in the world, who I miss every single day 💔

Day one of all new varifocal contact lenses and I love them! Can't quite see small close things but I've been told to be patient and let my eyes adjust so I'm hopeful things will get even better! Hurrah!

Had to get a new headshot for a thing. Yuk. It came out OK & I made it my new WhatsApp pic so it matches the thing & people will know it's me. In less than 24 hours 2 exes have been in touch. Men can be so predictable sometimes.

Today I have mostly been eating cake

This.

Buffalo saved because it looks like Donald Trump share.google/0ZkE28OIcZ00...

Despite me telling the people around me I have reported the weird noise to the floor manager, and he has raised a ticket, one of the men felt the need to accost the floor manager as he walked past to tell him about the loud noise.

I'm 10 mins into a training course & the person presenting keeps smacking her lips & inhaling through her teeth & I don't know if I'm going to last the full hour 😬

Can the social media ban kick in for over 60s? might keep them away from conspiracy theories & rampant racism.

We have no money. You know this. Why do you keep asking why we’re not doing things we used to do? It’s because we have no money. We. Have. No. Money. We have no money. There is no money left. It’s all gone. None of us have it. No money. Nope. Money gone. We don’t have it. No.

Whatever the question is, I'm 100% sure that a multi-millionaire banker who's trying desperately to be friends with the fraudster squatting in the white house isn't the answer. Don't fall for it Britain, come on.

I wanted to get in a strategic nap before tonights Taskmaster final but I've got a non work meeting at 7pm 😭

Breaking news - early feedback on my video is that my story is powerful. There are 2 Star Wars jokes in there. I'm not sure what's making people think it's powerful 🫤

BREAKING: Indigenous white people commit riot and arson. Incompetent indigenous white police fire water cannon. Indigenous white politicians who fucked up our economy discuss "legitimate concerns" in lying newspapers owned by indigenous white tax evaders. Immigrants somehow remain the problem.

It's social mobility day tomorrow & for a work thing I'm supposed to record a video about my 'journey'. I've shown my practice run to someone for feedback & they said I was very brave to share what I'm sharing. Feels weird to be told your life story is brave.

Many women have been horrifically killed here in the past 5 years, including at least 7 who were stabbed multiple times, and their deaths did not receive statements from the PM, debates in the commons, or global news coverage. Nor were there any riots, or condemnations of cultures by politicians.

On average about 20% of my caramel lattes don't have any caramel in. This week 2 out of 3 have been wrong. Not ideal.

At this point if you're not boycotting the world cup you should probably be having a word with yourself. Is football really more important than treating people with respect & dignity and acting with integrity? Is it though?

As long as you aren't hurting anyone nothing that brings you joy is a waste of time

Just because you can doesn't mean you should

For reasons unknown to me I got 'new' outlook before anyone I work with. Also for reasons unknown to me, after several months of battling it and hating it, it was rolled back and classic outlook returned. Now I have new outlook again. I can't work like this.

Whatever you think of Streeting (and I have thoughts) this is a worth a listen

THEY ARE BASTARDS
