Is there a German word for when you had a free moment in the past, and thought,
"I'll just do that paperwork, because it'll make my life easier later on."
Then you forget what you've done, only to be overjoyed a few weeks later when it's already done.

Bravo - excellent description

Adam Ant’s Prince Charming costume in is the Victoria & Albert Museum’s collection and quite rightly too. You can see many of its 19 components at the V&A online & very impressive they all are too. collections.vam.ac.uk/item/O159723...

Severance theory: Lumon is a medical company looking for the ultimate emotional painkiller. Imagine: productivity unaffected by grief, divorce or any kind of mental distress of an outie. Hence the test that is Cold Harbor. #Severance #Lumon

Ha! Show-off! (But tbh, if I had my issues of V for Vendetta signed like that, I'd post them too)

Hey, everyone. Let's share Rose's website as far and often as possible. Her name was scrubbed from NASA's website thanks to orders to erase women in STEM. Rose fought through poverty and homelessness, and every time I look at the moon, I think of her.
