So about 5 years ago, a new client invited me to business dinner with some other business dudes. After we arrived, everybody was introduced with full name and title.
Only I was introduced by my client
"... and this is my girlfriend".

[And he did not correct himself]

This is unprofessional even if we were close friends and he just made a joke. But in reality I knew this guy 2 weeks over email.

Me: Being the speaker at a Business Event. Some guy was introduced to me, so that we can talk about the product.
He: so are you married?
Me: no....?
He: [sweating] don't feel bad. In my experience, unmarried women are better in bed. I have experience in that hehehe. And you look delicious.

Non-duck dinosaur ducks? Maybe! https://www.nature.com/articles/s42003-022-04119-9

Pic is my painting of Halszkaraptor, a similar animal.

Hi everyone, it's now one just week (eep!) before my book "A History of Painting: with Dinosaurs" launches in #London (UK) at Kings College.

Join me as I take you on a crazy journey through the history of art as it could have been, if the great artist had painted #dinosaurs. It's free for anyone to attend, but you need to put your name on the list to get in:

I'd love to have some Mastodonians/Fediversians show up!
