that's a neat effect but the reflection's all wrong, the letter placement left to right is maintained but the letters themselves are reversed. (also WERE WHILE)
The reflection should be showing us the back of the speech bubble which itself would be inverted, that or it'd be plain white.

Most often I use a french press for convenience but when I have the time (and because you asked) I use this drip filter, metal mesh so it doesn't need paper filters but then cleanup is more effort as a trade-off.
On the go I use an Aeropress or coffee bags, depending on the travel arrangements.

Ah that's cool!
One of the few benefits of being a grown up is (sometimes) having the free cash to indulge yourself 👌
My boys have something of a descendant called Botley. It's crazy to think BigTrax is older than me, that must have been advanced for it's time!

Donald Tusk: "I have no reason to claim we're on the brink of war, but a line has been crossed, and it's incomparably more dangerous than before... This situation brings us the closest we have been to open conflict since World War Two".

This is a new one for me when it comes to job requirements...
"Must have at least 2/3 years experience in your current firm"

Due to present tomorrow and a Windows patch has blue screened my laptop (thanks Microsoft) and the bitlocker recovery key is nowhere to be found.
Hoping my twelve year old backup laptop holds out just a little bit longer🤞
