Somebody was looking for a word for online socialising, so I suggested "cybersocial" and they liked it. Can we make this a thing please? I tried it like 20 years ago but it never caught on. 😅

The main thing I don't understand about billionaires is just... Why? What is the point? Hoarding wealth just doesn't make any logical sense to me.

Nice 8hr wait in A&E last night (not for me), so 2025 is off to a good start. 🫠

I'd be worried about giving them any ideas. 🤔

Just been in for what I thought was just to have my blood pressure done, and turned out to be that plus blood tests, an ECG, and had to give a urine sample, so that was fun 🙃

Somebody please tell me this is an early April Fools...

Reading that, I guess I'm somewhere between Neutral Plotter and Chaotic Plantser. 😅

Glad to hear you're feeling better!

Can't sleep so thought I'd play Terraria as I "haven't played in a while". Haha, oops.

Trying to organise all the notes that I've made of story ideas I never finished/started over the years and I just found one that is so old it mentions the mc's *LiveJournal* as a plot point. 😅

My doctor has sent me a letter because they've been trying to phone me for nearly a month about my blood pressure. Like I'm going to answer a random phone call, why can't they just send an email or app notification? 🤦‍♂️

Last.fm Playback24 and Last.Year reports are sooo much better than Spotify Unwrapped.

New Years hits different when every year is just as bad as the previous one. Not sure how 2025 can be worse than 2024, but I'm sure I'll find out soon enough! 🙃

Every Christmas I always made an effort to call my grandparents, and today is the first year I don't have any to call.

Specifically waited in on an Amazon delivery for my husband's Xmas presents and the driver just put the package through the letter box of my neighbour who is away for a month. 😑

Check if the Online Safety Act applies to you Use our tool to find out if the rules are likely to apply to you, and what you can do next.

Meant to add a link to it, whoops. www.ofcom.org.uk/online-safet...

I don't know if this helps but Ofcom has a tool to check if the Act would apply to you or not

I can't remember if I have or not... I feel like we might have when I was a kid, but that's a long time ago. 😅

See, it's not just that C-suite types in publishing don't read books. It's more like they actually have no idea what books are or what people do with them. It's a mystery

Equaldex, a global database tracking LGBTQ+ rights, has been threatened with a ban in Russia. The government has demanded that content that “promotes LGBT relationships” be removed within 24 hours. If Equaldex does not comply — which it of course will not — it will be blocked.

Kinda annoying that you need money to make money tbh

It's almost 2025, why is it still impossible to stop multiple devices from replying whenever you say "hey Google"? 😑

I’m exhausted with how corporations have so normalised stealing our data that we can no longer even do things on our own computers

Wish I didn't get rid of all my art supplies. I had some really nice sketchbooks and now I can't remember where I got them from because it's been *checks notes* over 20 years.

Last night my dream was in an isometric viewpoint... That's a new one for me. 🤷‍♂️

I've not really created much art for years, but just recently I've been thinking about traditional art, maybe grabbing a sketchbook and doing something that feels more real. Gen AI "art" has really put me off looking at anything digital. 🫤

Just when we thought the games industry couldn't get any worse.

I can't remember if we were mutuals or not, and I deliberately locked myself out of the bird app so I can't check any more 😅
