Me: Fuck, the paper towels I want are on the top shelf. The Sir David Attenborough That Lives In My Brain: Being smaller-than-average presents an added challenge to foraging ... but necessity is the mother of invention. A little creativity turns a baguette into a tool, and voilà-- (paper towel roll falls on my face) Sir David Attenborough, pleasantly: Success.

David Attenborough: Disaster. The self checkout has malfunctioned, causing a massive wave of anxiety for no reason. Scientists believe it’s because he’s “All weird and stuff.”

I hate how my brain automatically read it in Attenboroughs voice. I guess there's a little Attenborough in all of us.

This is my wife. She's 5' 1" and is often knocking items on to her head from the top shelf of supermarkets.

I love how my brain automatically read it in his voice.

I also do this for myself and my friends out loud from time to time.

His passing will be one of the very few celebrity deaths that I will mourn.

I narrated a little segment about the intelligence of crows to myself as I used a stick of vanilla beans to reach the cocoa yesterday.

I was assembling a new 3D printer this weekend and seriously underestimated the size. I started building it on top of my table saw outfeed workbench thinking it would be a perfectworking height, and by the end was stacking 2x4s to have a place to stand so I could screw in the top of the enclosure. I discovered that I really should have a small stepstool in the garage, because right now my options are stacking wood or using an 8' stepladder.

Printer is a Sovol SV08 Max BTW. It's fucking massive and I'm gonna love it once I tear down and rebuild a workbench to accommodate it.

A fun little Attenborough fact: David Attenborough went to Clare college, and as such the college had a little bronze bust of him next to the buttery (cafeteria). The nose ended up very shiny, as it was considered good luck before exams to rub David’s nose.
