Every now and then a photo appears in my notifications as someone spots the potential for Something Silly.
Sometimes the photographers are very kind and say "go for it". Thanks to @cheriecreationstruck for this one.

You might remember my distress at not having been able to grab any tiny balancing sheep photos. Went out for a walk today and it wasn't perfect (the pathway is noticeably higher than the field which makes it tricky) BUT VICTORY IS MINE! 🐑 😁

they loved it.
im doing this format from now on for every tabletop i ever do.
telling them halfway through "oh no, this is real. go look at your logs. go look at your telemetry. its there"

@fabienmarry @anon_opin best camera is the one you have with you.

REALITY: "Automating this 5 minute task is way more fun than doing it, so I'll spend all day automating it"
@weirdunits this has strayed out of Weirdness and into regular IT, although currently this is an inverse unit due to market price changes
