@wigglytuffitout either that or it's because there aren't any and they know that won't play well if they actually come out and say it

Tom Ford is also trying to flog watches with what looks like an undecorated ETA 2824-2 or Sellita SW200 for over two thousand US dollars so screw that noise

@maple it's hella cool

@maple he'd hate it

watch nerds the world over will be sitting going "oooh, cool!" though

@evie I know right?!

7. Complicated watches are fun, Tom, fuck off
8. If it's leather then yeah, try to match colours
9. Wear whatever strap you like
10. Wear a NATO strap whenever you like, if it's a dress watch maybe go for a seatbelt weave one
11. I refer you to my answer to 2.
12. Don't be such a snob, quartz watches are still good
13. yeah, fine
14. what the fuck Tom?

Tom Ford did a thing with GQ on "the rules to wearing watches" so of course I have to respond to it

https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/tom-ford-rules-for-watches-2019

1. I've never owned a full-length mirror in my life, don't worry about it
2. Pictured below is Buzz Aldrin wearing 3 watches at the same time, Tom I fucking dare you to tell me Buzz Aldrin doesn't look baller as fuck
3. Okay, yeah, good rule
4. Go for it
5. yeah, match your metals in jewellery
6. I'm not going to argue with James Fucking Bond

UK telephone numbers are a mess

The area code is 4 digits, except when it's 2, 3, or 5

The customer number is 6 digits long, except when they're anything from 4 to 8

And the total length of a phone number is 10 digits, except when it's 9

@maple morally yes, definitely

also they probably won't notice

@Anke that's why you've got the big cloaks!

don't worry about rain and things with a big cloak

how on earth did churches win out in popularity over henges?

you're always hearing about churches fundraising for repairs for the roof or whatever, don't get that problem with henges, henges don't need any maintenance at all when you've built 'em

can't beat a good henge

@maple the best praxis

*hugs and kisses the maple*

a small @maple shaped board game piece is called a beeple

@maple Googie Nights

@maple I've got some suitcase-sized powerbanks in the bar, just beep if you want one

hedgehogs seemed to enjoy the new addition!

also got the blackbird seal of approval!

@dragonmagic a real-life version of that might be a neat touch to a cosplay or something

lockpicks or bump keys wouldn't be ideal in there but maybe a set of TSA keys on the end of acrylic fingernails, have a cover that can clip on to make them look like standard nails but it's removable to reveal the key

@apLundell@octodon.social completely missing out on the far cooler biology/chemistry/materials science/blacksmithing crossover course "wanna make a sword out of the blood of your enemies? here's how!"

@maple and that's why furry corner is the best
