True Job Satisfaction

I am ALL about young people getting fulfilling jobs. Not that it’s not a noble cause to begin with, but I read an article written about millennials (that’s me!) where it said that we’re all obsessed with finding career fulfilment and enjoying every day of our jobs, instead of working hard to support a family …

Such Vexing Silliness

I get that the world of the virtual is pretty much supposed to be a place for freedom, but some people are taking this to the limit. Over-Botch just gave us an entirely new set of accessories, which were fairly limited before. No one cared, because this is a game focusing on career realism, but …

Bring Me Boots!

Bah, shoes! I don’t see what’s wrong with a nice, solid pair of dragon leather boots, preferably enchanted so that they repel water, keep your feet super cozy and allow you to soar through the air if you think enough good thoughts.  I haven’t seen any dragons in this realm, but that’s no excuse. They …

Thieves beware

If the ball is too big for your mouth, you should probably get yourself a new ball, because THAT ball has been in someone else’s mouth and it’s probably infected with all kinds of germs and such. Honestly, I fail to comprehend why anyone would be stealing anyone else’s ball. Such silliness. I’m most vexed. …

Gardening For People

Weeds: can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em. I mean, I’m forever removing them from my garden beds and pathways, and fighting an uphill battle to keep my grassy patch from having no actual grass in it. On the other hand, I do like to eat said dandelions – hey, it’s cheaper than buying …

Stupid Ghost Boat

I suppose if you asked me about the main purpose of a railing, I’d say that it’s to stop things from falling off a platform – things like people, and… well, mostly just people, I guess. Currently, my boat doesn’t have a bow rail, so I suppose there’s always the clear and present danger that …

Proper Earthquake Readiness

Pshh, flat-earthers. Amateurs. Also, hollow-earthers. Double-amateurs. I don’t even have anything to say on the subject of round-earthers; you guys are crazy, and also sheeple for believing the mainstream. No, the hottest and most scientifically verified theory at the moment is that the earth is actually shaped like farfalle. That’s right: a big old bow-tie, …

Musings On Medicine

Medicine is such a weird phenomenon. Do you ever stop and just go, wow, how is this a thing? Maybe it’s just me, but surely it’s worth taking the time to appreciate just how improbable it is that we meat sacks in space have managed to piece together how to… well, piece our bodies back …

Thrilling Tale… Again

It was a dark and stormy night, as the classic fireside tale goes, and we were just starting on the post-dinner washing up. We’d had a preserved lemon pilaf and rosewater labneh from the new Yotam cookbook. Without warning, Francesca launched into a spiel about how inefficient the design of our kitchen is, and continued …
