@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyI have questions about the Chinese word for “Hotel” 🤔

@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@David true, but all my limbs will be aching in a way that may not be best served by modern aviation seat comfort…
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyQuestioning the wisdom of getting a double-vaccine the day before a 10h flight, as I limp my way to the airport like an arthritic 90yo…
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyI just realised I’ve reached the point where I’m kinda okay waiting 10 years for my clothing to come back in fashion, rather than going through the faf of replacing them all every other decade. I reckon that baggy era can’t have more than another 2-3 years left.
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyLebanese mum in the Eurostar lounge, asking me if I'm also on the 8:01 train for which they're announcing a delay… Then 10 mins later, when boarding is finally announced, gets up, turns to me still seating, and waves me over: "yallah, let's go"… 😂
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gySomeone 3d-print me a version of that with tanuki and tanuki balls instead. Please?
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyTo this day, the best Deep House mix ever made is unquestionably Charles Schilling's 1999 Overground House vol IV.
I shall take no further question at this time.
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyBased on the willingness of our household to spend the gdp of Paraguay to get an “emergency” vet appointment and skip the 24h wait for our regular vet (“she went from keeping her left eye closed 40%, to 60% this morning”)… I think it’s a good thing we don’t have kids, or we’d be long bankrupt.
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@mulboyne.bsky.social calling this an English version, is a bit of an exaggeration…
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@HansZauner completely unrelated, but really cool TIL from the Wikipedia page:
“A legacy of the long-ago demolished London Wall is that there are just three main routes into the East End from the direction of the City of London”
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy@pikesley I mean, this sounds a lot more like I would expect the band photographed above to sound like…

@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyI was today years old when, through the magic of metadata and my media player, I learnt what the band behind reggae superhit Dreadlock Holidays looked like…

@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyWondering how many people listening to Air's iconic Les Professionnels track would know what that weird sample is at the beginning of the track… 🧓

@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gySeeing the CEO starting to post AI "success stories" to the company chat, and forwarding every other snake oil salesman BS linkedIn post about turning your engineering team into a vibecoding factory… feels like the professional equivalent of watching your grandpa getting radicalised from […]
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyGuys who put on cologne to go to the gym: who hurt you??
@deivudesu.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy3am insomnia thought: “are the worlds of LotR/GoT/etc supposed to be taking place on an actual (round) planet, or in an alternate reality where big bang physics doesn’t exist and the universe is a flat rectangular surface?” Follow-up: “right, but then they do have stars, don’t they?” 🤔
