Until a certain point
It takes a lot, to get to me
Usually people don't get there
But then, when this dude has an angry cranky day
So damn the devil, then I go haywire
When I have deficiency of a vitamin
Then I go haywire
Then I go haywire
When I have deficiency of caffeine

Can anyone recommend a place where I can borrow tools for a one time use? I'm working on the lawn soon and need one-time things like a lawn leveler/soil spreader, pitchfork, crimper etc. Really not interested in purchasing one even second hand just to use it once :/
Kennards has a bunch of stuff too.

Whenever I see someone recommend Much Ado About Nothing (1993), I feel like it should come with a warning. I see it come up in a lot of period drama comedy recommendations, and while the film is good and funny, if you don't understand iambic pentameter you're in for a very unfunny time.
Same goes for The Hollow Crown (Henry IV adaptation), excellent mini series, but again good luck following along if you don't understand iambic pentameter.

Itβs so difficult to keep on top of everything and my hair is giving me the shits. Tempted to go a pixie cut but thatβs just more maintenance
Just hopped into bed and the cat keeps softly licking my arm and then very softly nibbling at it. No idea what he's up to, but I can see the headline now, "lonely shiftworker eaten alive by beloved cat in the night".
'cat escapes stormwater drain and eats owner".
FTFY

Watched Past Lives. It was like a modern update of Wong Kar Wai, dripping with tension and beauty and a throughly atmospheric soundtrack unsurprisingly scored by two members of Grizzly Bear. I dunno whether I'd recommend it to others. I think they need to have lived through at least a bit of the contemporary immigrant experience for the film to hit its most powerful notes.
