@mrlockyer.bsky.socialReposted by @mrlockyer.bsky.socialTwo things I need to share which I think are VERY Bluesky. So, a thread:
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialQuestion for @letterboxd.social / when I click the ‘+’ button to add a film I’ve looked up, this page pops up, with possibly the smallest image of the film. Why is it so small‽
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialOh yes!
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialThat is SUCH a niche reference that I immediately got! Could you sketch out a little technical drawing for me please, with measurements in mm, and I'll have a tinker.
@mrlockyer.bsky.social4. YES THERE'S MORE. I'm being filmed tomorrow re my running recovery after surgery. I'm taking suggestions for funny things I can see if I can get in shot. If I own it, I'll try it.
@mrlockyer.bsky.social3. Tricked you! There's more! Booked to see Digger. Any original film which isn't about BLOODY SUPERHEROES I'm up for. Plus, the critics slated it, the audiences are loving it, and I want to have an opinion.
@mrlockyer.bsky.social2. Just got the halfway point of 'Mare of Easttown' and gang, this series is AMAZING. So tightly interwoven, such world building. So much said and unsaid. SEEK. IT. OUT.
@mrlockyer.bsky.social1. I discovered today that Costco sell a four TIER cake of cheese for £72. Ordered it.
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialTwo things I need to share which I think are VERY Bluesky. So, a thread:
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialRight so all I'd need to do would be to extend the lip of one side of the Canopouch. What pouches you they use?
@mrlockyer.bsky.social100%. Where does he wear that extender on his seal (in relation to a clock face)?
@mrlockyer.bsky.social“Everyone Welcome”
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialWhat a lovely thing to say and read!
My partner thinks this just how I process things - immerse, share, advocate.
Just wish I could come up with a #PouchTo5k for my mental rehab
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialYes I wear those at night to stop it sounding less like a crisp packet rustling under the duvet!
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialInteresting! I will investigate! Now I’m in a routine, I’m less fussed about changing them, and luckily, my skin doesn’t react to the seals.
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialSometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. The thing with a stoma is that it’s essentially a pipe end, unlike a rectum, which has a control mechanism! If your pipe has output, it just goes, which can make for a risky shower! You do get used to the habits of your body though.
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialI use Coloplast one piece. Sampled and loved the minis, which are the size of a CD disk. Super comfortable, non intrusive and perfect for running.
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialIf the pouch is empty, I’ll leave it on for the shower. I found the seal opening a little, so have been doing the flannel moustache trick, but also don’t mind a bagless shower, so long as Sven is inactive. Had a few lively ones! Tested it, worked well!
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialImagine the order: skin, seal, pouch. This slips between seal and pouch, clipping loosely around it, and pushing against the seal edge (which would otherwise get wet in the shower and start de-adhering). The water now falls and is diverted off and away, rather than wetting the seal!
@mrlockyer.bsky.socialI designed and made this today, to make showering less challenging. The sheer pleasure of chewing over a problem, experimenting, problem solving. Creativity is so wildly undervalued.
