listened to I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue line a few days ago and this line is still rattling around my head

"Isambard Kingdom Brunel of course died in a tragic industrial accident in 1859 when he tripped and fell several hundred feet into his own upturned hat."

I was tempted to just buy four identical pairs to sidestep the issue but they're already out of stock

I hoped maybe I could say "sod it" and drop £300 on One Good Pair Of Shoes I Wear Everywhere yet even the mass affluent shoe people don't seem to do what I need?

I find shoe shopping extremely difficult because "non-shiny plain dark brown shoes that work with jeans but also the workplace" is rare

I finally found a pair I don't dislike but they were £29 and are already falling apart because they're just not designed to be worn as much as I'm wearing them

they also had this one
which also reminds me of @snowfox.gay for some reason

I forgot to get a picture of the block of butter Christmas ornament. I’m not sure why you would want to hang a block of butter from your Christmas tree, but if you want it, John Lewis has it

it’s a Christmas tree decoration in the shape of a hot dog. It’s oddly flat, with a sausage some mayonnaise and a bun made of felt, and with mustard and gherkins made out of sequins

It’s wearing a camping backpack! And is an entire ten pounds

Meanwhile some teenage girl in the 1930s was sending these to her faourite horror magazine:

Devil's Croft is enticing. Raggh---woof---grr---I like so very much.

If you can get me any more story-length poems like Lovecraft's Psychopompos---by all means 'gimme.'

Ah---ahaha---haw haww---chuckle!

someone asked me for book recs earlier and it reminded me of this @qwantz.com comic

if you like this, Ryan and the gang expanded the idea into a full graphic novel, which I adore
search.worldcat.org/title/105674...

[Dinosaur Comics #1355]

Narrator: THE MYTH OF KING MIDAS
T-Rex: Midas was a king who was nice to a friend of the God of Wine, and so he gets a wish from the God of Wine! NICE! And so Midas wishes that everything he touched would turn to gold.

T-Rex: Instantly the ground he's standing on transforms into gold!

T-Rex: The gold change races across the planet's surface and down into the mantle like a shockwave, transmuting it instantly. In seconds, the Earth's iron-nickel core becomes pure non-ferrous gold, and the planet's magnetic field is lost. Unshielded from solar wind, every living creature begins to absorb desperately fatal levels of radiation. The soft gold of the planetary crust is unable to sustain the weight placed upon it, and begins to buckle and distort.

T-Rex: Midas watches in horror as his planet dies a golden death! Utahraptor: But not for long!

Utahraptor: He's soon overcome by the terrible sensation of drowning on dry land: any air that touches his lungs is being transmuted on contact into tiny flecks of gold. He suffocates and dies as his lungs fill with the formerly precious metal.

Utahraptor: Air that touches his cooling body continues to transmute, and he's soon covered in a fine golden layer of ash.
T-Rex: The moral is not to make wishes like that, King Midas!!

it seemed like a good idea to get both vaccinations done at once, but now I’ve realised I can’t lie in bed on either side
