Pie eater in Sauceland. Bendy in a chronic kind of way (hEDS). And housemate of Clarence the cat, I know that's why you're here really.

Another doozy from LinkedIn.

All this for capitalism and money. I'd understand it if /they were this committed to making a difference to people.
I'm 26 & I live a boring life on purpose: I spend my Sunday planning the week ahead. I live rigorously through my calendar. I wake up at 6am every morning. I work on the business for 3 hours every morning. I gym every day. I eat the same meals. I have my coaching calls at the same time each week. I only have calls with the team or clients. I say no to every other call. I clear my WhatsApp messages at the end of each day. I spend time outside of business with the same close circle. I do all of these things because when my life is "boring" & repetitive, business grows incredibly. The more variables I add in, the more the business suffers. I value a growing business more than spontaneity. As a result, I lean into it. Regardless of what other people think. CODER <

This just turned up in my letterbox 😬

If anything I live too much and think too little so I guess it isn't for me anyway

Cats are amazing aren't they. These little soft furry things that love attention, give us loads of affection and cuddles, they vibrate to let us know that they like us and feel happy. And then they'll just bite you, or piss on something for a laugh. 10/10 animal.

Being told I put my own comfort before other people's safety, I love excluding vulnerable people from public spaces when I've dedicated 20 years of my life to working in social care, ran a care home safely through the pandemic & have worked with countless organisations to make places more accessible
Michiel @murtoz.bsky.social 25m ugh, just not true. With far-uvc or upper room uv combined with ventilation you can make any indoor space safe, if you so chose. We just don't chose to do so. What other spaces would you like to exclude vulnerable people from then? Auld Bendy @auldbendy.bsky.s... 35m Replied to Michiel Notice nightclubs aren't on that list. I don't think this contradicts their policy statements. Michiel @murtoz.bsky.social 32m Right because airborne virus cares what type of establishment you go to. But you enjoy putting your comfort over other people's safety.

Zack Polanski's secret long game to disable his supporters 🙄 Or is it he is just celebrating his community and raising funds for the party? It's at a nightclub, it isn't for everyone. If you're immunocompromised you'd steer clear of loads of places not just clubs. What a weird take.

As the adage goes, I had an excess of de-zested lemons so I made some lemonade.
Some Lemons on a counter top and some simple syrup in a pan. Some lemonade in a jug.

Loads of butter, flour, eggs, sugar and Lemons!

Tried to login to a training portal - no option to reset or request my password apart from using the AI assistant and this was the sum of all the help provided. Brilliant. 10/10. So fucking helpful.
A screenshot: Having trouble signing in? Yes, I need help. How can I help you? Help with passwords. Okay, what sort of help do you need with your password? No other options are then available.

Clarence's favourite Christmas tradition - climbing into a paper crown.
