I dislike bio’s, really.

I’m a late 40 year old female with a 24-year-old daughter. We have two dogs, two cats, one guinea pig.

I live in the UK. The England part. I enjoy commenting on U.K. and U.S politics.

Warning: Sarcastic sense of humour.
My cats are due their boosters. I asked mum (she’s the one with the car) to book it for me, as I’ve had two letters, two texts and a phone call to tell me this. She didn’t believe me when I told her that people have become that anti-vax that they’re refusing to get their animals vaccinated too.

And half the politicians pontificating about it do so on a far-right paedophile website, without the slightest self-awareness about how ridiculous they look.

Didn’t even get to the end so…

That, and can you imagine going to an election with your campaign being “Britain is broken. Vote for the change we need. Vote Reform.

P.S. Most of us are who broke Britain, but you shouldn’t focus on that. Vote Tory Lite”

For me, it would be my terrible poker face. People would think excessive eye rolling would be me trying to become a meme but really, it’s just my face and an inability to hold it in.

“We stopped immedi…. Will stop immediately after the last time we accidentally wiped the computers hard drive. We keep telling Sid to stop pressing random keys on the keyboard, honestly.”

*smiles politely, adjusts “Minutes since last ‘accidental’ hard drive wipe back to 0 from 3*

Though it still made me laugh when one of them decided actual AI is on the way, once it’s grown neurons.

Ah, yes. The spellchecker too has feelings. I still cuss it out when it pisses me off.

Also it’s AI, it’s basically several supercomputers. I query the “grow up” part.
