I hate dating apps but I think I convinced myself at some point that it was just enough effort to use them so I didn’t have to try irl but just hopeless enough that I’d never have to worry about actually getting into a relationship.

I went on a date recently that went really well and we’re going on another tomorrow

Its been about 8 years since my last serious relationship, and that only lasted a couple months. So I’m going to try and take these next steps slowly and carefully…

Dear Friends of the other side, ☯️

As we may know traffic wardens/cops are human . but . Yesterday I came across one of these lost . They are employed by Wandsworth council. Yes it really is named Wands ... but that is another story. Ahem ...
back to the traffic warden who was issuing a violation ticket to a petrol death dealer (or 'Kar' as I believe call them). The offending kar was on double yellow line on a busy . I the traffic warden and pointed out the vehicle also had one on the pavement/sidewalk. Also naughty. I think his work was appreciated and made him happy. On previous occasions I have suggested to traffic wardens:
- They should be issued with tasers
- One of my muggle siblings was driving a red SUV and should be penalised if caught ...

I have other for traffic wardens
- The option to remove from tires whilst the tow truck removal for multiple offenders, arrives.
- Confiscated 'Gas guzzlers' (preferably from political car pools) given to each refugee going to Rwanda ...
- All removed vehicles with a to reach the fine paying depot with a

Hope this is :byebrows:

Dear Friends of ,
On this morning just as I rounded a corner by the , I heard several loud retorts, like gunshots. Carried on walking and there was a man with a large stick and a rather battered metal sign. I assumed he had been hitting the sign very hard. I asked if he did not like the sign and was told he was frightening away the , "... because they eat the ?," I inquired, giving him a wave as I passed.
"That's right," he assured me.
Anyway the load bangs stopped. The cormorants circled the pond and maybe went elsewhere ...
Some people take their fishing very seriously.

Dear Friends of Tooting,

Dear Friends of GNU,
I was in when I came across the option to change my search engine. Included was adding an search engine. When I looked at my search options, they included the usual horrible data miners, Google, Bing, etc,

Normally I use or if I can
Then up popped an option
opensearch.org
This seems to be operated by Amazon, the well known buy everything ubiquitous company.

Haven't got a clue if I need this or why I need a in an client anyway?

As usual, I am drowning above my depth. Any welcome. HELP!

Going to redo the #introduction I wrote earlier, giving it the tag that seems more important here...

Hi, I'm Izabela or Iza if you want to save keystrokes. My life has undergone some changes since June 2016. Took a while for me to start living. A closet can do that to you. The masks of undiagnosed neurodivergence as well.

I try to use my love for language and languages and my wandering autistic ADHD mind to create spaces in my mind that I pull poems from.
