@Flick This was my walk to work when my boss made me go in because I was the only one that lived in the city, lmao. My dad Told me I should have said "I'm sorry, I'm already pissed"

@Flick I lived in Southampton for nearly 15 years. It didn't get significant snow at all apart from the last year I was there. It was mayhem.

@Flick We get snow as late as April here (not in big amounts) and you're not supposed to do anything in the Garden before Memorial Day in May, because the snaps will kill everything

@Flick @sim@shitposter.club @LostInCalifornia It's the right thing to do under the circumstances. She can plan better for next time, good local security for starters.

Putting the snow shovel back in the garage. Am I tempting fate? The winter was non existent really but the weather has been weird.

@OkieSpaceQueen@scicomm.xyz I have post grad students with majors from places like MIT that are scary clever, but they don't know how to do certain computer things and do this. They're *so* smart but have clearly been conditioned in this way.

@HebrideanHecate @Flick @KeepTakingTheSoma It's religion for the Godless. Also an austerity cult - but for you, not for them.

@vriska Give that chin a rub!

@nyx @7666 @adiz @ahriboy@snug.moe I was living in England when it was banned in 2007. The first thing everyone noticed is how bad pubs smell. Everyone had to go outside to smoke, which lead to these little huddles with the (usually one) non-smoker minding the entire table while everyone was away.

@nyx @7666 @adiz @ahriboy@snug.moe The first job I had, the non-smoking break room was called 'the morgue'. That was the difference in simple terms.

@adiz @nyx @7666 @ahriboy@snug.moe I haven't smoked in a decade but when I have a beer If I had a packet I'd probably light one up.

@adiz @nyx @7666 @ahriboy@snug.moe It used to be very social 20yrs ago, before most places banned it. You'd get to know people over a smoke break. Anti-smoking people miss the point that smoking is pleasurable, it is why it is hard to stop.

@waves@liminalisland.xyz Ha! He sounds a hoot.

@Bandicoot@theblower.au This is lovely. Reminds me a bit of Dartmouth actually.

@nuala

@waves@liminalisland.xyz The smiles are all the same. It is kind of weird.

@grumbulon The fedi can be a rough place
