Are multiple, terrifying loud flyovers by fighter jets in the early morning *really* the best way to honour our glorious dead?
Or just a way of honouring the glorious industrial-military complex?

This is the kind of thing that you think only happens in America. But no, it happens when you have armed police high on their own authority :( Everything about this is suss

I really hate rim down, no matter how much sense it makes in our environment!
Also:
"China and glassware should be washed every six months even if you don't use it, including everything in your china cabinet"
[I did not know that!]

@51fb1883 I could spend all days telling your stories about how unbelievably stupid he is when he doesn’t know what to do and won’t ask.
This is a man who has been using iOS and iPads for years and *still* doesn’t understand the differences between tap, touch and long hold….
And will not listen when I try to explain. Because it’s not important, he says.
My goddamn husband didn't know how to empty our dyson cannister, so he’s just been ripping it out of the housing each time 😞 And now I've shown him how (with a a great deal of yelling and swearing for him being so *stupid*) he's complaining the correct doesn't work that well. Yeah because you done broke it by brute forcing it before, fuckwit.
To think one of the things I liked about him was that he seemed competent at household tasks 😞
Second attempt at leg defuzzing worked.
Had to abandon first attempt yesterday. I forgot I’d left the bathroom door open, and I had the tube of Nair in my hand, ready to start application, when Jana came in and had to show her love for me by wiping herself all over where the goo was about to go :)
You can imagine how badly this would have gone if the timing had been different!
Not wanting to anger the gods of fate, I decided to let her have her fun, and try again today. With the door shut.
