P just taught me a Polish phrase which basically translates to "The shit is higher than their ass is", which seems perfectly apt right now.

Really insightful discussion here today with lots of great intel for those in any public sector, not just healthcare.

Just used a gif in a reply because I'm a cringe millennial, and it was a *chore*. "Can't use this one cos that actor is problematic. Same for this guy. Oh DEFINITELY not that one. Pretty sure there was something in the news about this show. Oh now *that* was a whole thing," etc.

Look, I'm not saying I'm the perfect girlfriend, but on my way to my BF's house I felt a ~trace~ amount of hunger so, foreseeing potential Armageddon, I stopped en route to get myself a snack.

Can someone please give me a medal for explaining to my IT nerd boyfriend that the difference between a nightclub and a club night is that the nightclub is like the hardware and the club night is the software.

Question about shellfish #allergy - can it be an intermittent thing? P will sometimes have symptoms (slight facial swelling and itchy hives alleviated with OTC antihistamines) after eating prawns, but not consistently. Can't find any information about why this might be though.

People of #Cardiff, there have been quite a few dead ducks on the canal by Atlantic Wharf recently, and I've been told the authorities are doing tests to determine the cause. In the meantime, please be mindful of your dogs and kids around the water.

So I took the first photo, whilst on the loo, to be like 'Wow, Cardiff's dive bars are really something' and within literal nanoseconds a perfectly manicured hand yoked the forbidden cheese out of frame.

There are soothing sea sounds being played in Gdansk airport toilets, which is quite nice apart from the occasional and entirely unnecessary nerve-shattering screech of seagulls.

I think this resonates with people - royalists or not - so greatly because the Queen of England has been a global constant for the majority of most people's lives. Like no matter what the hell was going on, there she was, doing her thing.

Love doing moderately well at bowling as if my hypermobility-ridden ass has the slightest control over what's happening. State of these noodly arms.

Imagine, in a world where adults pay attention to your every whim, a stranger sitting in babcia's house staring at nothing in particular and occasionally nodding "yes" to questions like "Do you eat children?" (I assume... This four-year-old's Polish is far too advanced for me).

At P's family home and despite a year of consistent Duolingo practice since our last visit all I've managed to any degree of authenticity is pointing at the former puppy and going 'NOW THE DOG IS BIG'.

P: I've got sores all over my face! Me: What? Where? Are you okay? How did this happen? P: It's okay, I've got kitchen roll. Me: Let me see the sores. Don't rub them! P: It's okay, gone now! Me: ... P: ... Me: Ah. Sauce.

I simply don't understand the motivation of those who feel compelled to comment on people's decision to be childfree. WHY DO YOU CARE? Literally, what difference does it make to you? Or do you just want everyone else to be as unsexy and unfun as you apparently are?
Quote Tweet
Millennials who are very cavalier about not having children are in for a shock when they enter their 40s & realize life is only half over. What do you do at that point? Keep trying to be sexy & have fun? I expect to see a lot of sadness & confusion about what to do at that point.
