To keep up the lyrics theme; Seems I'm not alone at being alone. -

Hello boredom, my old friend. -
I don't know, if he'd try to hug him then he might have got a broken nose for his troubles. I think a distraught John is to be handled with care and distance.

'Tis.

I can't! If someone I trusted gave me sedatives, and I genuinely trusted him enough to take them, it wouldn't occur to me that he'd be sick enough to make a move once I was drugged! I don't know how sedating myself would be an indication I was willing to engage in foreplay, or what kind of man would be gross enough to want to sleep with someone who was sedated anyway. Grim. Grim all around in my opinion. -
I know the background is brilliant, isn't it? So eye-catching. If only that bloke wasn't in the way blocking it.

I don't know, your nose does appear to have a certain 'cup-like' quality.

Do you mean you can't see the point of her coming forward or you think it won't come to anything so there was no point? -

Exactly. Luckily I left a while ago now and am tucked up in bed snug as a bug in a rug. -

I notice it most with younger actors who obviously feel the pressure to be soon as cool and funny, but just come across as a bit of an annoying idiot. I'm being held captive. I took my car to the garage this morning to get some important stuff done and they only just managed to squeeze me in, but I should have left the office for home an hour ago but my car is still being worked on. -

It's grim when you're enjoying a TV show or movie and you happen to come across an interview with the actor and realise they're a bit of a d*ck but obviously think they're adorable. -

What we were saying before about buying clothes online... do I wear a big hoodie and just have it as oversized or send it back and get a small one? Decisions, decisions. -

Damn time zones. Everyone's chatty chatty when I'm sleeping but when I'm in work bored it's silent. -

It's a tough one. I don't know enough about this case, I've only been following it on my periphery, but in general people (men) who are accused in the media do seem to be automatically deemed guilty in the court of public opinion, which is I agree is dangerous. But then so many women report things that have happened and they are either not believed or there's not enough evidence to convict. Definitely a tough one. One thing I thought was a bit ridiculous, as I said I don't know about it in detail so maybe I've got this wrong, but when I looked at the other accusers against Kavanagh one of them was saying he was drunk at a uni party and exposed himself to her... I've had people do that in a uni party setting and just laughed it off. Then I read more and it said he'd 'thrust his penis into her face.' Which I thought, yea, not cool, but it's hardly on par with rape. Btw, as an aside, the fact there's a statute of limitations on rape in the US blows my mind. I don't understand how the Kavanagh case plays into that - is it not a criminal case and it's more about his character? Is it just within the limitation? A case that was very interesting and got a lot of people talking was the attempted character assassination of Aziz Ansari - did any of you follow that? There was a long story by a woman he went on a date with who implied she'd been traumatised and that he'd attacked her. But when you read the account, in her own words, it made no sense. It was full of ridiculous details of how he'd 'mistreated' her by... ordering the wrong type of wine without asking her opinion - and other stupid minor things. When he asked at the end of the date if she wanted to come up to his apartment, pretty clear what he's asking, everyone knows that 'do you want to come up for coffee' doesn't mean coffee... she agreed, although she didn't want to. Something else that was supposedly his fault. When they were in his flat he tried to initiate oral sex and she was 'thinking she wanted him to stop' but at no point actually told him. She 'thought at him' and expected him to somehow become psychic and know. The moment she actually verbally said she wasn't into it, he immediately stopped. As soon as she said she wanted to leave, he called her a taxi. Again, this is all from an article in her own words. He hadn't known there was an issue until he suddenly saw his name splashed across the paper as a supposed sex-attacker. The whole account was just the description of a bad date where she expected him to somehow be psychic. I don't have much of an opinion one way or the other on Aziz Ansari, but that account was ridiculous - I know rape doesn't always involve screaming and overt physical (as opposed to sexual) violence, but anyone reading that account would think WTF did he do wrong other that not be able to read your mind?! TBH, I'm more naturally inclined to believe and side with the woman. And if there are multiple accusations against the same man I'm definitely more likely to think he's guilty. But then I think how awful it must be if you haven't done anything and your entire life is destroyed by an untrue accusation. -

My orca is about 30cm long, and yes it has detachable organs and rib cage. IT'S SO COOL! Pretty sure you could use a defib as a murder weapon if you swung it at someones head. -

I wear hiking socks and my boots fit fine... don't know why my little toes feel so mangled. 😫 Lovely day though, sunshine, fresh air and pretty views. I think everyone gets the odd shitty period where they feel morose and dispirited, I know I certainly do. When I get really drained and stressed I tend to shut down and have an epic sleep to reset the system. Hopefully you'll feel better soon. -
