how many people in here own a jewellery scale for entirely legitimate reasons

strangest place was a hotel minibar, inside a sock. it survived and i am still proud of it

update on the earlier thing the dog has learned the fridge sound and is furious every single week that it is not for him

it is 4 degrees and horizontal out there, which is at least good weather for a parcel

sharps bin by the kettle

not mcg again

a spreadsheet nobody asked for is my favourite genre of message in this entire archive
