Ditto. I really just don't want to watch any content featuring those kind of ppl, even when it's designed to show their true colours. I don't think they should be given ANY attention! Block and ignore every single one!

However, I do feel something has got to give, because living in this country is definitely not improving my mental health. I'm like one of those wind-up little toys that's losing momentum and eventually I will just fall over.

Explaining to my mom that it's not that easy to move back to NL after 20 years now UK is no longer in EU. It's not impossible, especially as my mom is a Dutch citizen, but without funds and a job and somewhere to live it's difficult. Add to that my dismal mental health and I'm already exhausted ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I wonder why some ppl bother having kids. They always seem to be looking for ways to avoid interacting with them. I would like to think that if my own child hadn't passed away I would have enjoyed their company and felt happy to encourage them and make them feel wanted and loved.

A screenshot of a headline to a Guardian column by Adrian Chiles. It reads 'I'll never forget the day I tasted roast chicken crisps - it changed my life forever'. When Barnevelder, our sacred sage and scribe, fell ill a pall fell over our small village. A meeting of the Council Elders was convened and it was decided that I, the strongest of us, would leave to seek help. It was a journey never before attempted by any of us, but Barnevelderโ€™s needs outweighed our deep-held desire for isolation.
The path through the woods was long and arduousโ€”my tunic and winged cloak were soon torn and dirtied by the grasping arms of the thorn bushes which had long protected us. But after a few days the the going became easier, and I began to make good time. 
On the eighth day, on the edge of despair, my supplies long exhausted, the coldness of the nights having deeply penetrated even my usually warm and downy skin, I heard a mighty roar from just beyond the edge of the field through which I was passing. I ran to it and found a black pathway, dotted with white-painted lines whose meaning I could not discern and, on the other side of it, what looked like an inn.
Inside the building ,behind a long counter I saw a man in the most peculiar garb, beardless and balding, who gave out a loud laugh at my approach.
โ€œBloody hell - circus in town is it?โ€
Before I could respond, I fell to the ground, exhausted.
When I woke, the bald man was at my side . As my eyes opened he handed me a bag, bright orange in colour, indicating foodstuffs within.
โ€œHere, get those down you. You looked famished.โ€
I took a handful of the slices within and gobbled them hungrily. The taste was unusual. I asked the man what the flavour was.
โ€œYou never had roast chicken before lad?โ€
Horror overwhelmed me. I had broken the worst taboo - I had eaten of the flesh of our ancestors, the sacred birds from whose loins we all had sprung. 
A red mist enveloped me. I let out a loud โ€˜BAWK-AH!โ€™ and laid waste to the inn and all its inhabitants, my beak flooding with the stench of their blood.
I had failed the village, and Barnevelder. What lay before me was the life of an outcast.

A screengrab of a headline for a Guardian column by Adrian Chiles. It reads 'The AI assistant was offering me any help I needed. All I wanted was a living, breathing human.' Cyrille was with me from the start, from the moment I first dug up the immense horned skull in the corner of the garden where Iโ€™d planned to put the carp pond.

Sounds like quite the discovery! It could belong to several creatures. Letโ€™s try to narrow it down:
Cattle or bull
Goat
Remnant of an ancient pre-human race, possibly mystical in origin.

He was there too when I began to remodel the spare room into a Summoning Pool, in preparation for carrying out the Ritual of Taโ€™arth, which would bring about The Great Renewing Of The Flesh.

Turning a spare room into a Summoning Pool is possible, but it requires careful planning. Hereโ€™s a summary of whatโ€™s involved:

Check structural capacity
Waterproof the room
Acquire 50-60kg of beef tallow to aid in The Slithering Of The Path.

He also had some great advice when Jen and the kids had left for her mumโ€™s and I needed to contact work to let them know that I was taking a leave of absence.

Sure! Hereโ€™s a professional but honest letter you could send to your boss:

Dear Andy
I am chosen! I am divine! I am midwife to the coming cataclysm of the human race, whereby the True Inheritors Of The Earth will rise again!
I appreciate your understanding in this matter.

I thought we were partners, I thought we had an understanding. I just donโ€™t get what problem heโ€™s having with this final part. 

Luring a human to your house in order to sacrifice them to the ravenous maw of the Ur-Beast to facilitate The Great Renewing? Iโ€™m afraid that seems like it might cause harm, and be illegal. Iโ€™m afraid I canโ€™t assist with that at this time.

I donโ€™t know. Maybe I just need to find a different way of asking.

"Kantaro The Sweet Tooth Salaryman" (2017)
Japanese show about a publishing rep who writes a secret blog about all the different desserts and sweets he eats. Lots of scenes of him swooning at sweet food and quirky little dance scenes with people dressed as fruit etc.
It always makes me feel happy ๐Ÿฅฐ

How long should it take to confirm whether the US bombed and killed over 170 people, mainly girls in an Iranian school? It canโ€™t be that difficult. And why isnโ€™t this leading every news outlet in the country? Itโ€™s utterly shameful.

Anxiously counting the minutes until another online work meeting. I don't want to do it, I have nothing new to say, I wish they would just get it over with. I feel very triggered talking to 3 ppl at once ๐Ÿ˜ญ last time their cameras didn't connect so at least I didn't have to see them staring at me.
