Colleague bought me cake for being generally helpful to her. We sat ten foot apart in my garden and had tea. It was a delight. The cake was pretty good too...
Oh, and I watched a bird of prey today (sorry for the upright video, I didn't have time to think). I don't know what it was, but it was beautiful. And we have dinosaurs.
10 hours sleep.
Also my boss requires me to spend some of today playing with VR. Oh the hardship.
My grandmother had 7, but ... she also had 30 dogs, two donkeys, some random birds and an African grey. Oh, and my granddad.
@Macha Honestly? Go there and visit him anyway. He is where you are, and if there is any afterlife, why would he not be there? Buy the shirt anyhow. Turn it in to a pillow. Hug it. Mourn, mate.
She got a little scratch, which she scratched, and now the cone of shame is a hated miserable thing.
When your colleagues have to email your boss so that she knows her team's achievements. When she just reads from the list.
Oh, and enforced fun. Oh what fun this quiz is. Joy.
Oh. And the next time you put something on my course without talking to me, I will cut you, bitch.
@Tinuviel I literally could do this!
Coming to you now from Estate Road 2, where three families have converged on the side of the street to have a barbeque and let their children play on a bouncy castle, despite the perils of COVID-19. Today, on the JinShei Show, we ask, do people really dislike their kids and friends this much? Should we just let them all catch this and die?
@Ganymede because I liked her? And, you know, being human and all.
May I offer a range of dogs? My mum's old man is visiting us while my mother is at my sister's during her chemo. He has made a nest, using every blanket from our blanket basket, and then squashed the basket to be a pillow. He has basically made a blanket fort to protect himself against the bitches. Also, have a boxer derp-face.
Then my sister's dog visited us, and you can see the look on my dog (white boxer)'s face.
My brain is awake. For around four days it won't stop. 2am this time. Last time it woke at 3am.
All puppies are meant to be on furnitures and in beds.
Given the confusion with discworld mud, we're considering rebranding as ankh-morpork mush...
As part of the early impulse planning for the discworld mush, I bought this domain. If anyone wants a redirect to something using it, let me know...
It amused me, and I'm impulsive.
EDIT: mush.website, not mush.cloud.

@silverfox said in The Work Thread:
I just realized that it is probably not a sign of a healthy work environment to obsessively check the jobs board to see who has officially resigned for next year. Like, we all KNOW who is quitting, but when will they do the formal paperwork for HR to post the opening.
That sounds like a university.
We're refreshing email to see who is off sick with COVID, now we aren't wearing masks with students who are caring for COVID patients. 50% and counting...
In unrelated news I applied for a job...
@L-B-Heuschkel said in Discworld: The MUSH:
@Goblin Believe me, being invited for tea and biscuits with Lord Downey, cordially known as the best damn poisoner on the Disc, is mildly unsettling as well, let me assure you.
Next time we face consequences for our actions, let's swap guild leaders?
That can be arranged.
I tend to go with "it is like tabletop but you can generally hop into a game whenever it suits you, with different people, in loads of different worlds..." But I've not had a high success rate

@RDC Every time I pop on everyone is idle!
@JinShei What is the game addy?
https://discworld.mush.website/
We also have a discord (since I can't access game from work so I can answer questions on the go!): https://discord.gg/YY9z87
You would be very welcome 
@Auspice And even if they say no, you gained valuable interview experience
