They tell you before you get one that sighthounds are "really lazy," but I don't think you really grok it till you have one (or more) in the family. Like "they sleep 16-18 hours a day" is a fact that doesn't prepare you for the reality. "They really like blankets" actually means an exponential increase in the numbers of duvets and therefore duvet covers that need washing in the house.

This post brought to you by Ridley once more refusing to get out of bed, and clutching my legs so I can't get out of bed either.

"No but hear me out, mummy, bed is comfy and duvet is warm and snuggles are nice. And we've got TWO duvets here. What more could we need?"

I own all my favourite Maiden albums on vinyl apart from Number of the Beast because I own it on cassette and feel silly buying it again 🫣

@HailsandAles my birthday present from lovely @andrewhickeywriter was the new remastered and with an additional live album version, so I have it twice on vinyl - that one and a very battered 1982 original.

@miss_s_b@witches.live avatar

@HailsandAles i was the only person buying vinyl in the 90s, so I've also got stuff like the 12" picture disc of Bring Your Daughter. Never bought casettes though. @andrewhickeywriter

I don’t really know anything about country music but I think I’m going to listen to the Cocain and Rhinestones podcast anyway, sounds like a very interesting listen!

@HailsandAles you've already done A History Of Rock Music in 500 Songs, right?

Things I thought were a pointless indulgence before I hit 40:

  • chondotrin and glucosamine supplements
  • optrex
  • naps
  • bannisters
  • grippy shoes so you don't fall down the stairs
  • deliveroo
  • did I mention optrex? So good. So so good. It's crack for the over 40s

Genuinely loving that is getting lots of attention the last few days, but my GOD Fast Car is a persistent earworm. Can I interest you all in Talkin Bout A Revolution for a while, which is also an awesome song, and relevant to our times, and would be a nice change to have constantly rattling round my head?

All online services will eventually shut down. Any business that is offering you something "forever" is either lying to you or being unreasonably optimistic.

The best they can realistically do is promise not to revoke access, eliminate DRM, and to let you control your own data. All else is subject to collapse.

All the online empires will eventually crumble and be forgotten, subsumed by the inevitable march of time.

Except Final Town. All hail Final Town, the eternal social media outlet of the immortal Demon Queen Lucretia!

Woken by the dog having a thrashing nightmare. Yay. Honestly, if I ever find the twat that gave him such a horrible start in life and necessitated us rescuing him there will be Words.

Cuddling shuddering beastie and trying to calm him now.

@miss_s_b@witches.live avatar

He's calm now and enjoying his snuggle, but honestly, who traumatises an innocent creature so he still has nightmares about it years later?

I'm a computer guy, and every time I watch a show that has anything to do with computers I'm always complaining that the writers are full of 💩 💔 (That's not even a real IP address!).
I assume that cops, lawyers, and doctors are the same about cop, lawyer, and doctor shows respectively.

My question is, are there any shows that depict procedure faithfully?

For example, I've watched The Expanse, and I suspect that they run all of the physics by an expert to make the show more realistic.

miss_s_b,
@miss_s_b@witches.live avatar

@Red_Shirt_Dude certainly every job I have ever had is annoyingly misrepresented on TV shows. Even bartending. I think its like how nobody ever says "hello" or "goodbye" on phone calls, or finishes a drink, or goes to the loo. And people only ever walk the dog or go jogging if there's a body to be discovered. TV world is a strange place.

Tired: bring your dog to work day
Wired: bring work to your dog day
Inspired: work from bed with the dog lying across your feet every day

I am so lucky in being able to work from home.

Me, in bed: I would like to sleep

Bladder: lol no, you need to get up and pee first

Me: *goes to pee, washes hands, gets back into bed * OK, sleep now?

Brain: you haven't worried enough today! Here are some random worries that you can't do anything about in the small hours of the morning

Me, sighing: you're not helping, brain. Shut up and let me sleep

Foot: can I interest you in a random itch that will not go away at this time?

@robini71 i am simultaneously glad to not be alone and sad that you go through this too
