*levitating, eyes rolled back my head, clouded over, the air around turns cold and a fog rolls in* where is my packaaaaaaage

Tyra Banks went to the Prince Andrew School Of Doing Pre-Recorded TV Interviews About Horrible Things You’ve Done

This is absolutely what’s going on, you’re dead on.

I can’t recommend it to anyone but I’m not sure if that’s due to the source material or directorial decisions.

The costuming and sets are mostly very fun but like unsettling maybe 25% of the time but then it is very grim, very wet (raining constantly) and there’s an inexcusable number of close ups on various types of sloppy goo

Well that was a TERRIBLE TIME and I did not enjoy

😂 thanks, I was kinda hoping that might be the case with this new one.

I have not read Wuthering Heights but I think I’d like to. I have no idea what happens in it. Will I regret it if I go see that film before reading it?

Cutting down the manuscript word-count to fit the journal requirements🤦🏽

Guy whose claim to fame was stealing research from a woman and race science is in the Epstein files? In other news, Fork Found In Kitchen

No it’s not x

She should have told that Norwegian man that forgiveness was for gold medal winners x

I believe they’re including that in the next Winter Olympics, Curling is simply not sufficiently dangerous or psychologically torturous in its current form.

Up next at the Winter Olympics, we have Human Ice Cannon* where we shoot a person out of a cannon and it’s on the ice for some reason!

Tote bags, cushion covers are great for practicing how to sew straight (I struggled A LOT with this) and zipper pouches are great for practicing how to do zips. Gretchen Hirsch books are often available from the library and her Jiffy book has great sewing tips for beginners. YouTube is also super

The absolute NECK?

Ní raibh siad in ann, hence the glove. Ach fós, níl siad in ann.

Oh you don’t want to know but every 2 years a group of engineers would “invent” a glove that had like the ASL alphabet programmed into it so you could fingerspell and then tell you they had solved barriers between sign language users and non sign language users.

“I’m solving communication problems for deaf people using AI” is the new “sign language glove” but worse.

Ah I’m so sorry Linda. We lost our girl late last year and it’s so devastating.

Exactly it’s very “One weird hack!” and it’s like 90 years of investment into maternity services, infrastructure, education, paid parental leave, accessible childcare and a good work life balance.

I had a thread on The Other Place about this when I was freshly postpartum but basically giving people a box and saying “good luck” without the Finnish supports (Neuvola is the jewel in the crown of Finland, I will fight anyone who says to the contrary) is wholly missing the point of the box

Because it’s in the news again I need ye to know that the Finnish baby box is just a very nice perk in a system designed to take excellent care of pregnant people, their partners and babies. The box is a nice thing but it’s the system that is the real gift!

Can they get your man Ralph Fiennes to do the Lisa Barlow Hot Mic Monologue for New Years Eve in New York this year please

This is it? And every time you wash your stinky acrylic cardigan, it’s shedding and degrading and releasing microplastics? Looking at you, Dunnes Stores!

Oh it’s chronic. There is a special place in hell for “wool blend” and it’s like 75% acrylic, 20% polyester and then 5% wool but it’s priced like it’s actually fully wool?! Jail!

High end brands are scammers, I see your little unfinished seams and your shoddy overlocking and your shitty fabric

No actually I don’t think I’ll be spending 70 quid on 100% polyester pyjamas are you for real lads

Yeah, that’s it in a nutshell really, isn’t it?
