Should have travelled more when I was able to. Parents fuck you up. "Keep your head down and be sensible", fat lot of good that did me.

If there's anyone out there reading this..... do what YOU want to do while you can. In a blink of your eye your life will be over.

It's funny isn't it, how we all think we're invincible, that we'll live forever, we don't care for time and then it's all too late. Just another life pissed up the wall.

Such a lovely August day back in 1997, people outside enjoying themselves and not a single mobile phone in sight.....

ItsThatDeafGuy, 7 months ago to photography

Polite request for help;

I have been invited to show some of my #Photography work with a group #exhibition at the start of December. I have a collection of ten #photographs for it.

From this I applied for both #ArtsCouncilEngland & local council funding to help cover the costs of professional printing & framing, this is just under £3,700. The printers have a 4-week turn around with exhibition work, however the ACE & local council won't let know whether I'm successful with the applications until the end of November. Therefore I am now stuck in a rut & having to seek #CrowdFunding / #CrowdSourcing / #Funding for help.

May I therefore ask if anyone out there would like to assist me via my #Kofi page perchance? This is the first time I have been asked to show my work and it was already extremely daunting without having to ask for help.

My Kofi link can be found in my Masto bio.

Thank you very, very much, Lee.

(Can you please boost this post, thank you).

Does anyone have a single clue on what we're all supposed to be doing on this planet because this capitalism shit sure ain't it.

Two things:

One; you are not your job.
Two; you are not your parents.

Now, have yourselves a lovely evening x

Neighbour 4 parks one or two of his five vehicles (yes, five vehicles) opposite the driveways of neighbours 2, 6 & 8. Neighbour 2 takes one of his cars thinking it will hinder Neighbour 4 by parking opposite driveways of Neighbours 6 & 8(!). Neighbour 4 continues parking opposite driveway of Neighbour 2. Neighbour 2 is reportedly a shitheel, although Neighbour 4 is admittedly not far behind. Neighbour 4's wife knocks on door and speaks with Neighbour 8 to explain about Neighbour 2. Neighbour 8 takes heed and politely says that both Neighbours 2 & 4 make it difficult for Neighbour 8 to get their car out. Neighbour 2 moves car away from opposite Neighbour 8 but Neighbour 4 parks a tank sized Audi SUV opposite driveway of Neighbour 8 almost immediately. Neighbour 8 raises the issue with Neighbour 4. Neighbour 4 says if he parked opposite his own driveway he won't be able to get his cars out(!!). Neighbour 4 talks with Neighbour 3(?!?!), so Neighbour 8 is expecting some retaliation for something nothing to do with Neighbour 8. We also have a 'Julie' who has gone along taking notes of all vehicle registration numbers to see if cars have been taxed. Neighbour 12 had his car stolen from out front the other week, brought it up with others to check CCTV and Julie's there being very vocal that the car wasn't taxed instead (it was actually)....!

This fucking street!

#PSA ... if you are getting tension headaches, anxiety attacks or, worse, constant thoughts of suicide and/or having to take anti-depressants, etc, just to cope with your place of employment you need to resign. Like, pronto. You're going to burn out, you could even end up in hospital wired into several machines that are keeping you alive.

Your health is more important than anything else. Please put yourself first, your employer can and will replace you in the snap of a finger.

ItsThatDeafGuy, 9 months ago to music

The British music show #TopOfThePops; throughout its peak years you could wander through your towns whilst it was being broadcast and there would not be another soul out there, they were like ghost towns. The attraction of #TOTP with all generations was quite literally mind blowing and I doubt it will ever be repeated.

Well yes you can, check your local listings here: https://yourlocalcinema.com/

Additionally, if you have a local independent cinema you can speak with them directly too.

I'd like to completely renovate, including some demolition work and rebuilding then new wiring, new plumbing, far better insulation, solar panels, ground source heating, decorating ...... but then I wake up from such a silly dream!

Darlings, darlings, darlings, I know it looks rather odd, as if in some tiny way I'm being assimilated to the Borg. No matter how discreetly you think you're staring at the side of my head wondering what on earth the wee contraption is, I can see you and it makes me a little bit uncomfortable..... just ask. It's the outer gubbins of my artificial. cochlear implant.

So yes, just nip over, ask and I'll explain :)

To help you understand America; watch a few episodes of 'Last Week Tonight With John Oliver'.

To help you understand Canada; watch a few episodes of 'The Great Canadian Baking Show'.

I rest my case m'lud.

One thing I love about the area where we're staying is the majority of people's front gardens are full of country cottage plants. Combined with the abundance of wildlife it's absolutely beautiful. We have a family, or two as there are so many, of fledgling wrens just outside our rented cottage's kitchen window chirping away happily.

News media in Sweden have at least temporarily put a focus on the severe price gouging in public transport that’s been going on for a while now.

The mental gymnastics of politicians responsible for public transport saying that prices have rocketed to make it more attractive for travelers who want an affordable environmentally friendly way of travelling is worthy of an Olympic gold medal
