Mrs Dooms-Paterson

Wow. They sound like a right charmer.

I don’t get why people think that getting annoyed at you for something beyond your control is going to make their life better.

It was fascinating. Especially when looking at their flaws and the accidents that have occurred when using the AI to drive the car.

Did you see the Hannah Fry show about them last week? There's a group of people who go around at night following the cars and disabling their little scanners using a bit of masking tape. Leaves no residue so it's not criminal damage, but makes the car just stop. Human driven cars just sail by

Oh, god. The hours I spent there. And walking through the main building to get to the cinema section was always thrilling as you descended the stairs into the popcorn aroma.

I’m the same. I don’t mind doing it if I’ve got a lot of time or it’s a special occasion. But the store bought is often far neater and tastier than the ones I make.

Tony’s like the couple with Parker Posey and the Busy Bee.

I think I’m Harlan Pepper. I can’t stop naming nuts.

It’s Gundog day at #Crufts tomorrow and Tony’s taking two of the girls so we’ve spent the day washing and grooming them. Plus washing all the other dogs in the house and a friend brought some of hers over for the full treatment too. I now stink of dog shampoo.

Tony’s off to Crufts tomorrow with some of the girls. The dog show world is exactly like this.

It is. There’s you 🙂

You in another decade

The Milky Bars are on you

I can’t believe you kiss your carving knife #totp

The first James Bond to have been fisted by Andi Peters

Ouchy. Need someone to kiss it better?

Happy Threads Day! #Armageddonouttahere

I keep hearing stories that the locals go for walks and are shitting in the holes on his courses. I hope it’s true.

Just backed this on Kickstarter from @trip.bsky.social - a queer sci-fantasy high camp novel. That's right up my alley.

School uniforms to be redesigned with massive shoulder pads.

I effed up the lattice on top, but made a peach pie earlier. Kitchen smells lovely

I always find it funny when accounts like this have their name as ‘the real xxx’ As if anyone would pretend to be them.

Oh, absolutely. Not a want. A need.

We will, yes. One goes tomorrow, one Monday, then another on Tuesday. We’re keeping number four for a few more weeks as his new owners aren’t able to have him yet. It’ll be nice to have our girl here join the rest of the household and play with the adults.

Moustachioed men from roughly the 1970s serving absolute cunt in a varied section of outfits. There’s a yellow split leg robe, a pair of blue slacks, a leatherette trouser with shirt & jacket, and a pair of blue and black robes. It’s called fashion. Look it up.

I just can’t decide

I quite liked the unpredictability of it back then. It’s all far too sanitised now.

Discworld QOTD, from Jingo

“History was full of the bones of good men who'd followed bad orders in the hope that they could soften the blow. Oh, yes, there were worse things they could do, but most of them began right where they started following bad orders.”

I think the last one I saw was when Jarvis Cocker jumped on stage to moon Michael Jackson.

Maybe the rain isn’t really to blame.

I watched up to the end of episode five a few weeks ago and haven’t been in the right mind space to watch the final yet. It was so wonderful I didn’t want to add to it with the finale.

An emotional few months with these cherubs is about to come to an end as they’re finally able to start going to their new homes as of tomorrow. Final vet check and jabs this afternoon and all were good as gold. Except for the one who scratched my neck. Forgiven instantly. #EnglishSetter

Every news alert I get that starts with his name is currently a disappointment. One big beautiful day, it won’t be.
