@maple missed opportunity not going for "take, earl grey, hot"

@maple you're maple!

hedgehog update!

yesterday I saw a small sign of hedgehog activity!

they're not due out of hibernation yet and I haven't seen any further sign of them today so current thinking is that it was a little hedgie that got disturbed when next door had a telco engineer out and decided to move house for the rest of their snooze

they do that sometimes

or just move house mid snooze for no reason at all

@maple best robot

very on-brand wine choice for me

octopus is covered in sawdust from doing the first bit of making a new workbench

nothing fancy, just shelves and worktop, but physically the largest thing I've ever made

@maple I would like to sign up for this

@evie I have the opposite problem in the wrist department, I have teeny tiny wrists so finding watch straps that suit me is harder

Also it means that stuff from Panerai will never, ever look anything other than ridiculous on me

birb.

nice to see Gritty get a cameo in the detective pikachu film

Was filling in the Gender Census ( https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/gendercensus2019/ ) and realised I just don't like titles

Not even a non-binary thing of most titles not fitting in my case, just don't like them

Like, maybe "comrade" if you absolutely must but titles in general give me a sort of "yes sir, yes sir, three bags full sir" vibe

At the risk of resurrecting my previous toot on the matter which ended up killing my notifications for a solid week, the new 1TB microSD cards just announced by SanDisk and Micron would mean that IPoverTrebuchet now supports packets of 225 petabytes

@cwebber@octodon.social cat understands

cat doesn't give a shit

@colon_three Marie Antoinette, Steve Ditko, Queen Sofia of Spain, k.d. lang, Edward V, and Daniel Boone

that's going to be some kind of party I'm sure

I HAVE FINALLY FOUND A RELIABLE SOURCE OF DECENT HORSERADISH SAUCE!

The stuff you can most often find in supermarkets around here is in fact creamed horseradish, which is a very different thing to actual horseradish sauce
