Newton's evening:
Takes gin bottle from fridge, pours a very large gin into glass, returns gin to fridge.
Takes tonic bottle from fridge, fills glass to the rim, returns tonic to fridge.
Takes very large sip from glass, blows back of head off.
Tonic bottle was, in fact, the gin bottle again.

To put things into perspective - the arrow is pointing at the Earth, as viewed from behind Saturn.
This is a small, rocky planet where three dictators are fighting to become the most powerful of them all.
Meanwhile, the inhabitants are exterminating other species and making their world uninhabitable – but they are too narrow-minded and greedy to take that into account.

I encountered an ex-work colleauge while shopping today. She was on the down escalator leaving, I was on the up escalator going in. She saw me, waved, and wished me "happy Xmas and happy new year" as we passed. She tried to fuck me over in meetings for over 20 years. I ignored her. Fuck off, bitch.

Tonight I watched the film "The Woman in the Yard". Dark, atmospheric, and spooky. Recommended for all who like a good horror film without any shocker effects and splatter.

The number of adverts for online gambling sites during the advertising breaks in the darts is mind-boggling. Enticing people with "we'll double your first payment", "150 free spins for just €1", "€150 immediate bonus if you join now". High time this scummy industry was banned. Digital crack dealers.

I'm just watching the Grand Prix of Darts from Wolverhampton, and the commentator repeated that Luke Littler has been voted as "Britain's sexiest sportsman" 2025. What the actual fuck, people?

I just had a weird but lovely dream (yes, a nap was taken this afternoon). I went to the local rescue home, and picked up a scruffy elderly, black cat. They told me she was a good mouser. Back home, she started giving me excellent financial advice.
