Trump's really taking this "national emergency" thing seriously, I just heard he spent most of today in a bunker!

...huh?

...oh

apparently I misunderstood, when they said "in a bunker" they meant he was golfing again

Let's see... severe economic problems, worries about nuclear weapons, massive concerns about humanity destroying itself, wars in the middle east...

we're all absolutely sure the 80's actually ended, right?

being on computerfairi.es makes me glad I have so many arms to pet all the buns with

@maple also octopus approved!

@Taweret@octodon.social I'd expect sort of blueberry flavoured chicken

@cassolotl@queer.party pretty much nailed it for me

mostly by my use of the word "daps"

@maple huh... that's a... thing, I guess

@maple sending good cuddly thoughts your way bun, in your really nice looking little grotto

Names for police officers if you ever have to differentiate them for some reason:

Pinky
Perky
Peppa
George
Napoleon
Snowball

first two they might get what you're doing if they're British and old enough, middle two they'll likely get if they're parents, last two they probably won't, pretty sure not many cops have read any Orwell

@revolverocelot @maple very much agreed

@maple feel free to bring out "an octopus on the internet thinks you're a twat"

at the very least it'll confuse her

this is interesting, the new Swatch Flymagic

Uses the new Nivachron hairsprings that the Swatch Group have been developing which are anti-magnetic, anti-shock, and temperature resistant

To put more focus on what they've done with it they reversed the movement in the case to show it off which results in the transparent rotor being above the dial and the seconds hand going backwards

@maple it's true!

@Roxxie_Riot that's also a good garden aesthetic

@Roxxie_Riot of course you need border security, otherwise your lawn will just grow into the flower beds, gotta put some sort of edging in there

oh wait, not that kind of border
