what do you tell visitors the little thermometer in the fridge is for
star mg not mcg. the correction is faster than the mistake at this point

recipe that works in four bites: anything at all on a smaller plate. the plate is the recipe
the cat took out a tray. two survived. i have named them
the fridge is called colin and colin has never once let me down
i miss coffee more than beer, and the coffee is still there, it just does not like me anymore, for what its worth

how many people in here own a jewellery scale for entirely legitimate reasons
seven tabs
🔥3🧪18
anyone else have a drawer thats 90 percent alcohol swabs

the jewellery scale gets used for coffee beans more than anything else and it was still a good purchase
we are three years into the standing bet and the goalposts have moved twice
🧪3🤝5
is anyone else oddly attached to their sharps bin
a spreadsheet nobody asked for is my favourite genre of message in this entire archive
the mcg thing has happened four times this year and somebody catches it inside ninety seconds every time
swab drawer

🧊2🤝5
36 and rising
somebody wrote mcg instead of mg again, do we have a counter for that
we have a running joke about the fridge and a serious pinned table about the fridge, and both are load bearing, i think

who else has named their fridge
cold chain incident
raining here for the ninth day, is it doing that everywhere
who else bought a fridge thermometer for the vials and now checks the milk with it
sport was bad

who is winning the bet and are they going to be insufferable about it

i drink fizzy water with a lime in it and pretend, and it is fine, mostly

❤️13👍3

what is everyone drinking now that alcohol has stopped being fun
spreadsheet please
[edited]ok so 36 degrees today, which is a weather problem and also a shipping problem
for the archive did anyone watch that last night or am i the only one still awake at this hour
somebody will correct the mcg thing before i finish typing this and honestly good
coming back after 12 months, whats the current in joke, i have lost track completely
is there a sharps bin that doesnt look like a sharps bin, my mother in law is visiting

check the milk
is swirl dont shake going on a t shirt or are we just going to say it forever
it is 4 degrees and horizontal out there, which is at least good weather for a parcel
