Wasn't sure if the pot was big or if Sarah was Far Away

just discovered a fanfiction which is a crossover of Taskmaster and The Prisoner, and it's creepily perfect

A heading in the high school career night seems to say “ALUMNI BOIS”, which surprised me, but it turned out to actually say “ALUMNI BIOS”.

That's a big pot!!

Didn't know automats still existed!

Well you see, the victims are girls and women, so that doesn't count

We had a CPD about young people sharing intimate photos and at the end I put my hand up and ask, like just to be clear here, it *is* a crime to share these photos right?

📖A few years ago I wrote a book about the materials that make the world go round.
It was pretty relevant then. I think it's still pretty relevant (maybe even more relevant) today.
Anyway it's on offer TODAY ONLY👇
Have a read & let me know what you think shorturl.at/ONyBZ

I think "pupils" sounds stupid and I'll never say it 🤣

Interesting that they go so hard on this being a "trend" that is "dangerous" and not so much on a "crime" that is "illegal"

Sorry but if someone's child does something THAT stupid in a country where everyone has guns, they kinda deserve everything that happens. Actions have consequences eh

Every AI evangelist makes it sound like I’m basically gonna be a witch in a decade because I can still tell time, make change, write cursive, read/write/speak multiple languages, read maps, hold focus for longer than two seconds, do math in my head, engage with culture

They're NOT GOATS, Gráinne

In my homeland, we say "students" the same way Brits say "pupils" so that ain't gonna wash with me.

My colleague staged a "I think you might be depressed" intervention, it was that bad

I had that a while back and my vitamin D levels were on the floor.

Sometimes there is a reason!

I've been laughing solidly for about half an hour at this gif I found in response to some facetiousness in the family chat. My new favourite gif 🤣

Friends' School: Saffron Walden, Essex, UK - Best Boarding Schools NULL

I enjoyed this AI (?) or bot-created page best-boarding-schools.net/school/frien...

My local beloved fee-paying school closed in 2017, and it's all Labour's fault

I was about to say I had one in Berlin but then remembered it was a studio flat

Actually that's not a bad idea...

Embroidery class today (not at the festival of quilts!)

I know we love to shit on social media algorithms (and rightly so, generally) but this year the Facebook doomscroll algorithm gave me Taskmaster and it is my newest delightful obsession so I am eternally grateful!

Two quote tweets. The first says "“The soulless resume builder bug Asians you knew in high school? Yeah we just gave them everything, fuck you, son.”" The other shows a photo of the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and says "Revive it immediately."

Two quote tweets. The first is from Richard Spencer, which reads: "I genuinely prefer the Affirmative Action regime to dead-eyed “meritocracy.”" The other reads: "The yellow striver seethes in mathematics because Americans don’t want dog-eating fact memorizers taking over their institutions"

Two quote tweets. The first reads: "Mandarinization in the classroom results almost immediately in the Mandarinization of “high” society" The second reads: "If a world war broke out tomorrow, how many of these people would fight for America? Troubling extrapolation."

Two quote tweets. The first reads: "Idk who needs to hear this but realistically too many photos like this shred the reputation of harvard and stanford" The second reads: "America was a better country when there was Old Boys network of gentleman WASPs running the show. Look at this. This is not America."

Given the backlash to his photo, I encourage Asian people to gather in groups and make-up stories about them taking over some traditional WASP institution, just to make racists mad. "Went to a fancy dinner and everyone was part of the Daughters of the American Revolution."

I literally learned to knit and crochet in the mid 80s from a book in my local council library

40 yrs later still knitting but not a Christian any more 🤣

You'll have to take my emdashes out of my cold—dead—hands.

Not found, using this www.examq.co.uk/qualificatio...

I went to two of her workshops! She told me I should go to Bridges 🤣

You can have my em dashes when you pry them from my cold, dead word processor.
