  • Olives with beer taste just like toast! Fosters is the best for testing this theory.

  • One can hope

  • A really good distilling setup, or an embroidery machine, or a hen house upgrade, or a sublimation printer and T-shirt press, or a fancy wine fridge (stocked)... I have a lot of favorite hobbies.

  • Yeah. And I spent a while posting prolifically to them, but without comments, and without new posts, it's kinda pointless. I want to see OTHER people's content.

  • I'm glad you've got your routine and cat! Cats are amazing partners in sad. Make sure you allow yourself just to exist in the complexity of your grief for a while though, there's no timeline you have to stick to to 'get over it'.

  • I'm sorry, that's awful. How are you doing with it all?

  • Various Wetherspoons in England, because I hated queuing for the girls loo, so I'd just run into the men's. Apparently they don't like when you do that.

  • He's become the worst of humanity.

  • Nah this is fucked, stop trying to be whatever this is.

  • I've been using chatgpt to help me build a Bubble website. That is, I am doing all the work, I just bounce questions of how to achieve things and structure conditional statements correctly.

    Because I'm basically sanity checking everything it says vs copying blindly, it's interesting to see just how much it gets caught in a loop of misinformation. I'm lucky to be one of those learners who just needs an example, even if it's a shitty one, to figure it out myself, so I often find myself using it simply to see how it's NOT done.

    But yeah, I know jack shit about coding but I'm sure AI code sucks ass.

  • Fuck. I just had a really promising interview, but it was three days in office, three days remote (5 days a week, so the days gradually rotate). I've worked remote for 15 years, not including three months in a terrible office job that I promptly quit.

    I'm making a mistake considering this, aren't I?

  • Highly recommend hiking, or at least going for a scenic drive. I have been heading over to local trails a few times a week and it's amazing how much my brain has rewired from it. Like, I know the shit is bad, that hasn't changed, but seeing nature in force reinstalls this feeling of control. Nature always wins, these people will all be worm food one day.

  • In addition, don't say anything that suggests you will work, even if unpaid. Don't mention volunteering, helping a friend, doing remote work, etc. The rules are quite specific about what visas allow and do not allow, and many border people are just there to catch a paycheck - they will absolutely err on the side of denial. It is not a fair game, and you will not be given a fair chance to explain yourself.

  • Whether he stays or goes, he'll still be a cunt.

  • Turns out that when you do make that vote, the fucking Cheeto looking stupid fucker who takes bribes still wins. And I voted as hard as I could!

  • I lived in a travelers hostel with a lot of international people moving about on various visas. I think white people and majorities are more smug and comfortable than they should be right now. There was plenty of fuckery then, and we didn't even have the Jaffa cake monster in charge.

    Don't assume they ain't coming for you. If you're not on their side, you're somewhere on the list.

  • Politicians: Take the job and the paycheck to represent the people, bow out when it's time to do that.

    I might get called extremist for this, but senators and representatives should be willing to kill their career and reputation in politics to fight for their constituents. Otherwise, are we just paying them to have a good time??!

  • I would have to work for 514 million years to earn what one of the silicone six avoided paying in taxes.

    Eat them.

  • Picking. I'm pretty compulsive about it. Can really fuck things up if I'm nervous about an upcoming social event, as I end up with a puckered face, making it worse. Idk why I do this, a lot of times I'm not really even conscious I'm doing it until after the fact.
