Feeling very sorry for myself. Up at 4 AM with hurty teeth.

So far, tea bags and clove mouthwash are more effective than opioids. For about five minutes, but still...

Mandatory reconsideration for PIP has come in. 0 points.

Sheesh, what do I have to do?!?

Off to tribunal. Good job I have loads of energy and health, according to this assessment. Sigh.

PIP assessment - 0 points in every category

How are these updates? They do nothing but cause stress/annoyance.

3 texts all saying the same thing "update on your PIP claim... We expect to look at your case by 9/10/25." Texts are around a month apart from each other.

Isn't it cheerful?

Looking for glasses is so difficult. All I want is cats eye squovals in a metallic emerald green. Why am I doomed to be unsatisfied?

I actually love this.

Tonight's Low Quality Ad is for this Bamboo Plush Toy. He's happy because his only natural predator is slow, lazy, and probably sleeping. I'm talking about a panda, although I do realize I may have just described the average Bluesky user too (including me).

The alert came through just as I put my phone down. I thought I'd smushed something for a second.

Yes! Entirely correct.

We love that you guys on Bluesky share our love & fascination for our rescue sheep

They teach us new things every week ☺️

Like Arckleby, he looks like a cool character but he can jump a high hedgerow!

Karen Spoonie is considering making Irn Bru drizzle cake. Is this okay?!?

Just over ten minutes to think about jargon. Should you use it? How do you make sure people understand? When is jargon appropriate - or not.

Good plan. It's so stormy here I've had to put the big light on at nearly noon.

I bet you're also looking out the window and thinking - yip it's going to start getting colder! If you want to be prepared, then get your woollies sorted - like a cowl, for example!
