This is my place to Not Talk Politics.
Stalemate in scrabble. The computer has a V left. I have an N. Neither of us can find any legal moves.
You know they say "mad as a bucket of frogs"? Well, this is an actual bucket of frogs. Nineteen frogs in one bucket, collected and returned safely to their home in the course of de-silting @kathryn 's frogpond.
(we tried to relocate them temporarily without detaining them but they hopped back into the pond, getting in the way of the dredging; bucketing them seemed the best solution)
Spent the day until gone 4pm at the count in Harrow.

Got to bus stop to go to dentist, realised I'd forgotten my wallet at home. I a fool.
Vegetable pasties turned out OK, but filling was too dry. Need to find some way of getting gravy in there - probably MOAR MUSHROOMS.
Random spiraliser stuff:
Sauté halloumi with garlic & chili, add fine-spiralised carrots and sauté a little longer, add some mustard & peanut butter and water and about half a teaspoon of cream; at last moment stir in some coarse-spiralised fresh cucumber and some lemon juice.
A thing to do with halloumi & oranges: https://weekly-food-challenge.dreamwidth.org/37867.html

I guess more consistent use of hashtags would be a way to do it, but something that propagates downthread like CWs do would be ideal.
for things where a few people want to filter out, but most people don't want an extra click.
Mastodon really needs a way to subject-tag without putting in a CW-style cut.
