I'm sick of the LinkedIn 'people are looking at your profile' emails. The company names aren't changing so either the same people are looking over and over or it's all fake.
@vicorva The other day I was waiting on a call to do with a job. I'm sat in my chair at the appointed time with phone in hand and it rings, except it's my MUM. I panic for a second, answer and tell her I can't talk because I'm waiting on another call, and just hang up. Fortunately I had time to send an apology and explanation over whatsapp before the real call came in.
@vicorva Wren kick mother? Jail for Wren! Jail for a thousand years!
@vicorva No, this was my mum's old copy. We've played so many games we've gone through all the provided score cards.
The worst #Scrabble letters I have ever had.
I need some paperclips, I wonder if an AI could help me with this task. IYKYK
How to walk faster in one easy step: go outside at 2am. You'll be afraid of everything practically running in no time.
Thought I'd be clever and do a 'type until I do a typo' challenge, thinking I'd be going for a while. I made it half a page.
Just realised that I did not, in fact, know my bluesky handle. Good news, I didn't send out letters with bad information. Bad news, I need to retype those letters.
@vicorva Normally having an occasional error in a typed letter is fine, but for my purposes they have to be perfect. A single typo and I have to pull the page and start over.
