Anyone want to work for me today? I'm too tired and lazy. I'll give you a potato and some sardines

Was just browsing https://aussie.zone/communities and forgot there is an actual community set up to ask for help of a technical nature for this platform. Looks pretty lonely in there. !help@aussie.zone

I'm a poet I'm a bard
I'm easy and I'm hard
I write rhymes out of time
I'll find the words for all of my
Sorrows and my aches
Turmoils and heartbreak
I do my best to be relatable
But the reality is debatable
So date-able but hateful
Shame and self-doubt
Fill me up and pour out
Of my mouth and my fingers
They hover waiting and linger
Upon words yet unspoken
They light up awakened
Waiting

I am genetically blessed but not Gillian Anderson blessed, genetically.

Sounds awful but do you have that one actor that you just love to watch suffer. I've been very slowly rewatching Keeley Hawes' filmography since she was popping up in my British crime drama marathon a bit, and good grief she just gives a master class every time she has to act emotionally distraught. I love it when she gets to go for that slow emotional descent or that emotionally dejected look because I'm like, ok but like is she actually ok because she just genuinely looks fucked.

Home alone with my vessel and mind,
Will you message me, is it solace I'll find?
Do I occupy your thoughts late at night in your bed?
Do I swirl around mixing with the anxieties in your head?
Home alone with my vessel and mind,
Oh, the things I will do just to unwind.

I sewed on a button in a rush this morning, and it's promptly fallen off again tonight. A testament to my excellent sewing skills.
