The ones that made it are probably the only ones I didn't stress about anyway...

Now they're nothing more than bookmarks in the calendar, quietly reminding me I've moved on.

I'm glad some of my deadlines just barely outlived their relevance.

your second sentence here.

Two senior officials down, but I wonder what 'undercover report' means in this context. Is someone moonlighting as a spy?

"Two senior Reform UK officials step down after undercover report" — A 3D-printed house just went up for sale in Florida. It's a real thing, not a prop from some sci-fi movie. https://lnk.yeri.be/elYqu

The way the clock tower in Grand Place is still keeping perfect time, even after all these centuries.
