    “MIND. THE GAP.” It’s only Embankment station that has this old recording. The rest have been updated. It is kept just for her. The new message is longer and much less stern. Something along the lines of “Please mind the gap between the train and the platform”

    Aww. This reminds me of my car, which had a recording of my dad who had it before, saying “Tweak’s phone”. It’s something so small and insignificant, but still warmingly happy.

      I set up a streaming radio station with a looped recording of my cat purring. She died in 2018. This way she’d always be purring somewhere in the ether.

      Miss you, Choupie.

      Only if she got married at 2 years of age.

      She’ll be about 90 assuming the headline isn’t bullshit, or wasn’t written 30 years ago.

      Doesn’t look 90 to me.

    Aww shit. I have a health condition so my wife is extremely likely to outlive me, probably by decades. I should start recording videos for her.

    Or should I? I want her to move on after I go and I don’t want to interfere with that. Dying sucks.
