You might like these, purely for enjoyment:<br /><br />We Rate Dogs: https://twitter.com/dog_rates<br />and<br />Thoughts of Dog: https://twitter.com/dog_feelings<br /><br />And the personal account of the twenty-something guy who owns those accounts is here:<br />The Dogfather: https://twitter.com/matt___nelson?lang=en<br /><br />And then again, you might not like them at all - so much is personal taste.<br /><br />I love the cow. I feel like making one from papier mache now :)jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-80151326175919070952018-04-25T22:04:00.088+01:002018-04-25T22:04:00.088+01:00I have deactivated Twitter, FB and Instagram.

I use it as a first line of reporting on the news, it seems to always get to twitter first, almost as if the news cycle is following twitter these days. and sometimes i use it to store articles i want to come back and read in more depth later. I'm very cranky on twitter, though, and almost every single day i consider deleting my account. but i don't because i am a bit of a news junkie, though that is very psychologically unhealthy in these times.<br /><br />you have such a sense of fairness i can imagine that woman jumping the line after you'd been patiently waiting must have been irritating. good for you for walking it back, though, especially since she stepped back graciously once you pointed out her boorishness. there are so many bigger battles these days. yesterday i could barely get out of bed, contemplating them. <br /><br />i'll look for you on twitter and follow you. but the truth is, but for a few names with big followings, hardly anybody interacts with anybody else on twitter. it's all a black hole really, i think of it as howling into the void.<br />37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-87571506297467432702018-04-25T18:04:00.535+01:002018-04-25T18:04:00.535+01:00Love that cow - and the head too now that Briony m...Love that cow - and the head too now that Briony mentioned it.

I photographed a lot of them with film back then. I don't know if I still have any of those photos.

I use it to express my annoyance at and to certain people (and no I don't follow him either but I see his tweets in tweets of people I do follow which are all mostly political figures or commentators. few people follow me. I was feeling a bit annoyed yesterday as well, mostly because I don't have the presence of mind to focus on getting ready and the work being done in the bathroom. perhaps your co-worker didn't realize there was a line what with the gaggle hanging around the coffee pot. at least it all ended well.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-28243038459864334712018-04-25T15:31:57.600+01:002018-04-25T15:31:57.600+01:00I just can't seem to get into tweeting, but th...I just can't seem to get into tweeting, but that's probably because I only use my iphone for music, and then talking and texting when we're on the road. I think Trump's obsession makes me dislike it even more. Rude people who cut in line need a sharp rebuke, or if you're quiet like I am just a really condescending look as if all the gods in the universe noticed and made a note of it. I'm glad you and your co-worker had a laugh about it.

When I told him that no, your first name was Steve and your last name was Reed, he said, "Huh. Well, I guess I thought he just liked to read a lot." <br />I said, "Well, he is a librarian and he DOES like to read." He thought that was funny. So did I. <br />"When is he going to come back to visit?" he asked. <br />"Soon, I hope," I said. <br />You sure made an impression on him. <br /><br />I guess everyone's on Twitter but me. And that is okay.

They don't make the same mistake again. I guess the owners of that cow must have bought it after a charity display event.
