When you realise you're almost as close to 80 as you are to 30.

This speaks to me.
"There comes a time. Where sleep is the new sex. A plate of cold cuts. Is better than a hot bed. I sneak in the cool box. Late at night like a two-timing pig. But baby it feels so good. To get that second fix"

There are days where my penis legit needs a rest.

Listening to a friend's spotify playlist, which has LCD Soundsystem's 'Losing My Edge' on, and I realise - 'fuck, I've seen these guys, haven't I?'.
But can I remember when or where or what? Nup. Not one jot.
It's 6:36 into the song right now and I've been thinking about this for at least 4 minutes now.
I genuinely can't recall.

When you no longer "fall over". You "have a fall".

I'm sick to the back teeth of PM apps and systems. Across half a dozen regular clients, there are twice as many of them to use; Asana, Slack, Teams, Drive, Screenlight, Aspera, Trello, RocketPolisher, on and on we go.
Chuck in a few stuck-in-the-muds who still prefer to photograph printouts with red handwriting all over them. And my inbox is clogged with endless notifications from apps that are supposed to unclog my inbox.
Bollocks.
- Asana, teams and trello notifications get filtered into a "clutter" folder in my workflow. Makes me much more productivesausages
- I'm still in whinge mode, solutions later : )MrT
- + Zoom, Skype, Facetime, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, BlueJeans, WhatsApp etc etc for video conference calls. Oh and Houseparty for friends.inteliboy
- That's the spirit!MrT
- Oh you just reminded me to check Slack for stuff.........Nope, nothing important, will check again in 2 weeks...grafician
- Signs, I'm getting old: I don't understand any of the stuff you write. Haha. Oh, I have heard of Microsoft Teams... damn...SimonFFM
- Handwritten photocopies... Gezuss, you an 80s ad man? All these tools make my life 100 times more manageablenecromation
- Anyway, multiply all this with 4-5 clients, all using mostly different tools.
I just try to use email for everything...grafician - So over it myself. I pay loads of cash for PM tools that clients can't or don't use properly.monoboy
- I've even had a client FedEx a hard copy from the US with printers marks in H2 pencil for a 24hr deadline.monoboy
- @necro I’m not but a client does this.MrT
- We started with Teams after the plague struck, for people working from home. Pure fucking nightmare. Everyone uses their shitty iPhone mics for video calls...face_melter
- ...so everyone sounds like they are coming through a fucked-up NYC subway PA from 1973.face_melter
- Ha! I'm a little amazed that I got away with RocketPolisher as a viable PM app.
Thx for the upvotes xMrT

I had to ride my bike today for the first time in months because my car is in the shop and some punk on a fixed gear just passed me on my 18 speed road bike going uphill.

In your quest for a great lawn, not only do you begin your dethatching / aerating / seeding / fertilizing plan months in advance, but you start to remember all those tips your grandpa gave while you helped him as a kid and that lawn maintenance schedule handwritten on your father's wall now seems like a sacred scroll.

I think i may have arthritis in my fingers... I have pain in 3 of my fingers at the joint. Since a few months. I sprained a finger on May 29th when I fell from my bike, it's been 9 weeks and it looks like it made the arthritis pop in that finger, pain wont go away, my finger even started to get a bit crooked.
- Maybe its finger cancerdrgs
- Do you take cod-liver oil? My hands are pretty ruined from drawing/stylus use, but those capsules help me.PhanLo

I listened to a 20 year old and a 17 year old trade jabs over who the better rapper is, Juice World or Pop Smoke. I used to pride myself on keeping up with all music, but I was lost and had no idea who they were.
I just listened to them both. They are both unlistenable garbage.- A lot of modern rap music sounds like people on jellies talking to each other on the bus. They aren't the worst I've heard which is saying something.PhanLo
- Neither were particularly good, to be honest. Both are dead, so who's the best is entirely moot. Peggy is the saviour of modern hip hop, not these clowns.face_melter
- Jpegmafia for life #saveforwebPhanLo
- Pop Smoke ofc
RIP to both thografician
