When I die I hope it’s doing 2 of my favourite activities- sitting and doing nothing.

I went in blind…

Us too, we had no idea, just that it seemed highly recommended

Each episode had us going WTF and trying to work out the ‘puzzle’ of it all…don’t even get me started on the utterly bizarre waffle party

Looking forward to this!

Me and the bf really enjoyed the WTF puzzling of the first season and the beautiful aesthetic, I just hope they continue the quality and don’t shit the bed…

Totally agree…

I’ve been using mint for the last 4 years, and while I have had to use the command line for some obscure installs, it also works as an OS without needing to use it (i jumped in at the deep end and installed it in a pc I got from my brother and used it as my everyday OS)

I don’t understand why Mint isn’t the first suggestion for Linux ‘virgins’ switching over from Windows etc, it has everything you need pre installed plus the download manager for anything else

Linux has a flavour for everyone, and after a while when you’re confidence and skills grow there is the fun of using the command line and a bit of tinkering…or not, if you are happy with the ‘basics’

It’s a dwarf nagami variety, so a bit more like a bush

Don’t be so modest, I bet it’s really lovely (your new spider seems to agree), and tasty (assuming the fruits are edible)

… a tendency to hide inside wardrobes

Lol

If it is the A. bruennichi then it’s certainly a female.

You’re going to have to do a post if it lays eggs… Also is it dangerous to humans?

Really nice photos btw (and jealous that you have a kumquat tree)

We used to have a video club at Primary School (5-12 years) where you’d pay something like 10p to watch a film after school on a crappy TV. One such film was Beastmaster, we also watched Raiders of the Lost Ark, and inexplicably Assault on Precinct 13 (one of the older kids brought it in and told us younger ones not to say anything to the teachers)

Needless to say, I loved Beastmaster and Raiders, and didn’t have a clue what was happening in Precinct 13 apart from the swearing and violence…Fun times

I don’t normally comment on news posts, but in this instance, FUCK CANCER

Fuck cancer for stealing my brother from me, and for taking half my bf’s lung

I seriously hopes this works for everyone out there living with this disease, and for their families, friends, the people who love them…

…and also for everyone who has died too soon and missed their chance for survival. Their donation of tissue samples and furthering the cancer research that ultimately wouldn’t help them, but will help the poor bastards that are diagnosed today and in the future…It is bitter sweet

Fuck cancer

a certain ‘labor of love’ needs to be involved

You are not wrong! I think I must be mental sometimes, but it can be good fun discovering new things and then sharing them…

I really like her work, I posted last week some of her cityscapes of Manchester, which is interesting to see the ordinary and mundane of somewhere you know immortalized in art. I’ve got some others of hers which I’ll probably share next week

Also thanks for the tip regarding the code to expand images, it would be nice if the developers added a nice easy button to click to do it for me, but it’s something I can remember to do, like all the other minor things that help when making a post (it’s a learning process)

Cheers! 😀

edit, I’ve just tried it out on one of my posts on mander, it works really well!
