Today was the first day #ever I had a #package I ordered #return to #sender ...

I didn't get a #notification #card in my #postbox and couldn't be bothered

:akko_shrug:

Guess there is a #first for everything in life huh ?

"Charades! My favourite. Er... jumping up and down? Lively? Life-like? What's next? ... Crouching motionless, looking scared? Flopping down? And then spinning round? Turn? Oh, right! #REturn of the Living—Yeah, I get it. No need to keep pointing over my shoulder—Hey, why're you running away?"

Flowers lay by the door of the #crypt.
Golden sunlight dappled its stone walls.
The sun would set thousands of times.
Its stones would erode against wind and rain.
A hundred years would pass before the queen's #return.
But her reign would continue.
Her immortal people awaited her rebirth.
There was no need to #brood, nor even say #goodbye,
Simply, "See you soon."

as we now return
to cool autumnal events
will the heat follow?

That’s where he first learned
The real speed of words. The
Clack of the keys, the bell and
Rasp of the return, a satisfying
Cacophony of mechanicals,
And the soft crunch of the
Turning paper, the dance of the
Red and black ribbon, how
It moved from reel to reel,
And the words became physical.

I almost didn’t go. It’s easy for me to cop out. I like home. I like solitude. Two reasons to make effort. What if I get weird and antisocial? More than I am already, I mean.
All week it’s sun and heat. Today? Rain and shivers. Poets in layers and songwriters tuning between songs. The crowd is sparse. Friends of performers mostly. They bring potato chips, cider, and weed. Fingersnaps. I bring a sweater, an umbrella, and my red stress ball.
We meet for art. I #return wet. Unharmed.

We praise the open sky,
Our people getting set to fly
The return from abroad
After the strict lock down
For our dear people, no more goodbye

Ok, so we're strangely back after a 2~3 days of looking at a suspended account.

No prior warnimg, no reason given during and no answer to my appeal inquiring why, but I ám free again.

Kinda wary now though, hard to behave if you don't know what you did wrong... 😅

#return #suspension #fingerscrossed

I’m still mulling over yesterday’s episode that led to my making a #report. In the #past I would have said “Eff this, who needs it?” and #deleted my #mastodon #account. But now I’ve worked over the past few weeks since my #return to set my #timeline up to where it works for me. I’m not in a hurry to abandon that. Will it last? Time will tell.

Several Opposition leaders from the INDIA alliance have hit out at the government for not reinstating Rahul Gandhi's membership immediately after the Supreme Court stayed his conviction in a defamation case.

The U.S.-led West has made Turkey the face of its "appeal before Russia" for the Black Sea Grain Deal's return. Turkey, a NATO nation that is a close ally of Russia, has been pushed to coax Vladimir Putin. Turkey is reportedly in diplomatic talks with Russia, Ukraine, and the UN delegation. Ankara is trying to reinstate the humanitarian corridor in the Black Sea that facilitated exports of Ukrainian grain until the deal expired last month. Watch this report for more information.

Die vorletzte Ausgabe der #RetroGamer ist da.
Zugleich freue ich mich darüber dass sie da ist, und bin traurig dass jetzt nur noch eine folgt.

Man kann nur hoffen, dass sie einen würdigen Nachfolger schaffen können: https://www.gamersglobal.de/retro

Wäre schade wenn die (sehr gute) #Return das einzige Retro Magazin bleibt. Zumal es thematisch ja doch anders ausgerichtet ist.

Wirklich bisher kein gutes Jahr für alle, die gerne Texte über #videospiele in gedruckter Form lesen. Das überraschende Ende der #GAIN, die #RETURN nur noch als Online-Bestellung und nun trifft es sogar dieses recht bekannte Heft 😔

Alright #videogame fans, what did we all grab during the #SteamSummerSale?

I'll go first:

#BleakSwordDX
#Return
#BadNorth
#DaveTheDiver
#BattleBitRemastered

We can make return a much more positive story.

My customer pushed the box over the counter. "I want to #return this."

I pursed my lips. "No refunds."

"I know that! It's not worth the palaver." Fingering the scratch on his cheek, he stalked out.

I opened the box. Big, innocent eyes gazed up from the ball of fluff inside.

"You're such a good kitty," I murmured. "Who will we sell you to next?"
