To be fair to Germany, the absolute worst person I met here was Canadian.

But just about all the lovely people I met here were immigrants as well (including a ray of sunshine from Montreal). Shout out to the Uber driver from Pakistan and the restaurant owner from Israel for being real ones.

Truly surprised they arenโ€™t using Wojack and Pepe frog memes in all their official communications. Unserious clown government so busy with pop culture that real issues go unaddressed.

It's been a bit of a whirlwind starting #SchoolTasking 4 years ago & then ending up seconded to Avalon for 2 days of my working week co-running #TaskmasterEducation.

I stumbled across Maisie Parkes on Instagram & loved the little clay houses she made, so decided to commission a little memento ๐Ÿค

20 YEARS AGO TODAY: the most famous Ashes series of modern times, and the last to air live on free to air television, begins. This was advertised for weeks with a number of trailers starring a then little known Greg Davies dressed as W.G. Grace, but this is the best we could find.

meme. at the top, the text says "Star Trek." Below are 3 photos of babies taken from various episodes of Star Trek. at the top left is a cardassian baby, to the right is a borg baby; at the bottom is a Ktarian baby. at the very bottom, the full text reads "Star Trek not afraid to glue shit to babies."

I zone out during battle scenes so I had a tough time time following Hegemony pt II. The next episode was much more my jam.

Terrible news: my waxing girl whom I have a crushy crush on has fallen in love with a man.

I never had a shot with her but damn let a girl dream.

#SNW discussion with spoiler: Ok as much as I enjoyed Rhys, you know who could have killed it in that role?

Jeffrey Combs. Iโ€™ve been ACHING for him to play a Q.

I legit need that. I adore fragrances and struggle to know when itโ€™s too much. The battle between loving my scent collection and not wanting to be That Guy is eternal.
