misanthropic codger

I want to thank Rod Serling for preparing me for this freaking day.

8 years ago I was "invited" to a mandatory #PIP assessment after returning the 80-page @DWPgovuk questionnaire with a post-it note saying "As I'm not a salamander my legs haven't grown back." This is what happened next...

@seandunn76 Go easy on ‘em, most of them can’t even pronounce taco correctly. They make it rhyme with smack-o.

I am sorry but it is too late to heed the warnings of those who decades ago said we were on track to wind up right where we are now, but if you would honor Cassandra’s kinfolk you can start by heeding the warnings of those trying to alert you to where we are heading next.

@FossilLocator And yet they make me happy.

No need to debunk this. The word ‘bunk’ is a shortened form of ‘bunkum,’ which came from Buncombe County, North Carolina (where Asheville is located). In 1820, the congressman from Buncombe County gave an intentionally boring and long-winded speech to Congress...

Onaqui stallion Pyrite suffered in his last days. We are heartbroken that such a vibrant life was cut short so violently. If you have information about the killing, which took place during the week of Nov. 3rd in Utah, please contact the BLM tip line at (800) 722-3998.

@greennomad61 Found you!

@CybeleSees I'll look for you there ✌🏼

Okay, my loves. Like Charlotte’s children I have spun my one tremulous parachute. I do not know if it will last but you know where it landed & it has the same face if you want to find me. I will still check back here from ⏱️ to ⏳. Thank you for all you have shared. I love you.

@TopHatOrTrilby found you, gracias🌱

@rubierockett I found you! ✔️🌱

@Gurgifriends Really! I hadn’t noticed, have to look for that now 🤔perhaps they had cats.

Cup on plate, balanced at edge of table, standing between you and the cheese and butter which you of course want to eat with the bread and nuts! Painted by Floris van Schooten.

@PP_Rubens Wonder how the cup got that tarnished when he hadn’t eaten that much of the cheese or butter. Or maybe he has the same basic grocery order every week—glad he treated himself to grapes this time! Seriously, thank you. Love seeing two pcs by the same artist of nearly same objects.

2/2 Bread, butter, cheese, beer. In Floris van Schooten's paintings, you often just want to name each thing. And maybe eat it. Today is his day.

@BatConIntl BATS WITH SUCTION CUPS!!

@TracerRacerX Glad to hear of progress, sorry you’re still uncomfortable.

I bitch and moan on here and forget to say when good things happen and that's shitty friend behavior. Anyway, I'm out of the boot! Still limping, but in much less pain.

Remember the cat we found in our cafe? Well, he’s in a happy home now and enjoys our children’s book, Toby Finds a Home.

@debzhealey I didn’t make it to the not-really-a-bagel-place either today😕 Tomorrow for sure!

@CybeleSees Please know You are not the only one 😩❣️

*sigh* was gonna run to the store but couldn’t find my keys. I have spares but that’s not the POINT, WTF. Found where I dropped them after the store closed so I’ll drop in tomorrow and try the not-a-🥯-place-I-don’t-care-what-you-named-it again as if that was the original plan.

@hannahcjones0 🤣🔥 too late for me to be laughing this loud

No wonder egg prices mean so much to y'all
