Oh FFS! Learning irregular verbs is hard enough the way they are!

Best wishes, Bean. I think the hardest thing about growing old is watching my loved ones growing old.

I was having trouble recalling that scene in detail, so I checked with Ariana DeVere: SHERLOCK You knew about the wedding; more importantly, you’d seen a wedding invitation. Now barely a hundred people had seen that invitation. The Mayfly Man only saw five women. For one person to be in both groups ... could be a coincidence. MYCROFT Oh, Sherlock. What do we say about coincidence? SHERLOCK The universe is rarely so lazy. MYCROFT: So, the balance of probability is ...? SHERLOCK: Someone went to great lengths to find out something about this wedding. MYCROFT: What great lengths? SHERLOCK They lied, assumed false identities. MYCROFT: Which suggests ...? SHERLOCK: Criminal intent. MYCROFT: Also suggests ...? SHERLOCK: Intelligence, planning. MYCROFT: Clearly. But more importantly ...? SHERLOCK (in the Chamber): The Mayfly Man is ... here today. And after giving it a good look, I think your second interpretation is the correct one.

Yepp… *Hoot!*

Lovely face! (Though you might consider shaving it.)

Or dying

I'm a dog person, but sometimes I relate to cats more. I mean, look at that face! That is my face!

I think it was just a prompt question to put as caption. Since I was reviewing a cafe, I think it's the template for Google to ask about menu. I always include some dog pictures for pet-friendly establishment, because it's rare enough and I want them to continue being pet-friendly. Nothing weird but I did have a shock when I saw it (and a laugh after) ,so I took a screenshot. I don't know how to post a video here without uploading in a third-party media like Youtube. This is the place where we befriend many stray dogs, one of our regular beaches in the morning. I usually just sat around the area without being a patron. One night, I decided to bring Mom (who was visiting) and my dog to enjoy the live music while trying their food because it was a full moon. We were accompanied by our regular stray dogs and it was nice they allowed it (it's a beach anyway, but it was a plus that they were kind to the dogs) so I left a nice review.

Wait, I thought that actually means the first one is correct? That it was not a coincidence, because it was intentional. The Mayfly man had planned it all along.

Good luck, remember to take breaks! Taking care of someone is hard

I especially liked this part of Artemis's post: I am getting so tired of hearing such-and-such unusual trait called a "disorder" or a "syndrome" or even a "disease." Lots of other things are unusual (e.g., left-handedness or red hair), but nobody seems to think there's anything wrong with them -- at least not for the past hundred years or so. The current crop of "syndromes" are newly recognized, so maybe it's simply a matter of getting used to them. I apparently have "uncombable hair syndrome" and "face blindness." I've known pretty much all my life that "my hair has a mind of its own" and that "I'm not very good at recognizing faces," but had no idea until recently that there were other people like me, or that it wasn't simply a matter of not trying hard enough.

It's good 😊. I've read The odessy by Stephen Fry and Rick Riordan version of it in Greek heroes. But I'm still not tempted to see it

We were bombarded by five puppies yesterday morning. I swear they are not my kids and my dog Locky also swears they are not his kids.

I know this guy since he was a tiny puppy. He is technically still a puppy (less than a year with an adult-sized body). He has this obsession to groom me (those tiny harmless nibble) but he also likes to chew my arms. Helpless chews but can be painful after a while. Here he was trying to chew but after I growled at him he pretended not to hear me, act naturally as if nothing happened, and went back to nibbling.

I agree with you regarding the first half of your post, but as you pointed out in the second half you didn't know that there were others like you. And that's why imo it's a good thing we have more syndromes/disorders. I have an intolerance towards fish and ARFID, and I didn't know there was a name for that until my late 20's. It would have made my childhood so much easier, imagine growing up with everyone telling you to at least try to taste your food and not knowing how to explain that you literally can't. Imagine being like 10-11 and having a bitch of an cafeteria lady who doesn't believe you don't like fish even though you're gagging and being called a drama queen and you're exaggerating until the point you literally throw up in front of the everyone. Imagine your mom taking you to her friends and have food together only to discover you don't like the food and being told you're being ungrateful for not eating the food. It F***ing sucks!
