Feeling a bit down this morning. Lockdown looming; Germany has cancelled the Christmas markets; all leisure travel is banned. Remind me again why I moved halfway around the world in the middle of a pandemic? 🙁


@joneaves I know. But that doesn’t help either, thinking that we could’ve stayed in Oz and mostly been done with it. 🙁


RT @GordyPls: If you’re into Halloween I hope you have a heap of fun this year. Seems like a bit of joy and fun is overdue.


@Reidyd Not a fan.


@randomknits @GordyPls Remember our awesome Halloween parties? I miss that.


@aaronwalker @joneaves Actually, it’s going to be a glorious weekend in Munich. So at least I’ve got blue sky today…


RT @marksbirch: A legend, and will forever be one of my favorite actors of all time.

Damn it, Consuela! Let Mae do her SCIENCE. https://t.co/SOdLOVhzri


Science consists of everyone watching Sean Connery watch porn, and the Snook is LOSING IT. https://t.co/HAwHDD4p9l


This guy is genetically and physically superior to everyone else in the 23rd century?! https://t.co/BLNqvGhnpJ

WAIT, WHAT?!?!?! https://t.co/hKJrbf1T2a


The Apathetics are all attacking Connery to steal his life force. Now he has to eat the magic leaf. I… wish I could explain what any of that means. https://t.co/m0NJl2mqOb


The nutty old Renegades snuck him past the guards… dressed as a bride. 👰 https://t.co/PvG79Xyb4j


Maybe *I* ate the magic leaf? What is happening. https://t.co/PRnuuGKkns
