I love having a pressure cooker again. Made a very lazy chickpea, lentil & spinach curry for dinner. 🤤 I have leftovers & more leftovers from the freezer.

I appreciate wedding party barcrawls and you guys should have a ton of fun celebrating two people who love each other so deeply as to make a solemn commitment to each other, because that is truly a wonderful thing, but also you should call up every bar you're thinking of barcrawling to and just ask if Grimm drinks there and if they say "yes," you should fuck off to another bar, you gleeful twats.

"I think it’s entirely realistic that after 60 seconds someone will call time on talking about a camera. Even the most skilled conversationalist would struggle," says someone who has apparently never met an #ActuallyAutistic person or a camera #nerd. 🙄

Just been checking some of my fave webcams in the Alps for the aurora. Some highlights:

Nighttime view from the Zugspitze summit north over the dark Höllental and Garmisch-Partenkirchen with the entire scene tinted pink by the light of the aurora.
Nighttime view of the Zugspitze cablecar station near the summit with the entire scene tinted pink by the light of the aurora.
Nighttime view from the Nebelhorn summit over the still largely snow covered High Allgäu Alps (the ridge just north of Oytal) towards the Hochvogel pyramid. The entire scene tinted pink by the light of the aurora.

I was listening to a thing about the Wahabists who seized the Grand Mosque for about 2 weeks. They had a guy who they thought was the Mahdi, but he denied it, which made them say "ah, only the Mahdi would deny being the Mahdi. This just proves it." The poor guy ended up getting blasted.

@RolloTreadway @girlonthenet Some banks will allow you to deposit them by scanning them with their app! Absolute life-saver when I was staring at the archaic slip of paper that the tax man had posted to me when I was living in a different country & I was trying to figure out wtf to do with it.
I think that was the 3rd time in my life I've ever had to deal with a cheque... Except the first time I went to the US in 2009 & had to deal with travelers cheques. 🙄

I think there's a part of my brain that keeps parroting some received wisdom that if I do a little bit of everything (tech learning, language practice, creative stuff, cleaning the house, exercise, reading, ...) every day, somehow I won't tire myself out because I'll be using different parts of my brain for each thing, & quite frankly that part can STFU because it's the context switching that kills me.

Started playing on tonight. My first time playing an almost entirely with no/minimal visuals & I'm really enjoying it. The audio-only aspect makes it easier for me to concentrate on the story & action when my brain is tired of processing visual info like it is now after a few hours of reading & watching TV.

OK.

I need some 'reality' anagrams.

I'm laughing tearily, yet somehow irately satisfied.

@mckra1g @blogdiva @RustyBertrand Funnily enough, I don't think hatcheries would satisfy them. I think subjugating women is a big part of the idealised appeal. But at the same time, the reality of that is having to deal with real life women who aren't real-dolls who treat them like the kings they desperately think they are.

When reading Kurt Vonnegut's Mother Night 20 years ago, it was about the Nazis. Specific. Black and white.

Now, watching the movie, all their catchphrases and hate are echoed from almost every group of humans on earth.

The way Texans talk about immigrants, the way the EU talks about Indiginenous in the melting icecaps, the way kkkops talk about black people, the way Germans talk about Muslims. The way doctors talk about the disabled. The way men talk about women, the way billionaires talk about humans resources. The white Israeli nationalists talk about Palestinians. UK coastguards watching boats full of people drown.

Are we all just out there shoveling each other into ovens to save our own lives? So we can buy more plastic shit?

Why?

The door is not locked. We can walk out anytime.

@RustyBertrand @guyholmes @Shivviness As the child of a teacher, something about this doesn't sit right with me. I'm not sure what, maybe that the more disposable income you have the more power you have, or go broke trying to influence the future - this seems very like the system we already have & that's shit imo.

@RustyBertrand @guyholmes @Shivviness Every food bank in a supermarket (maybe UK specific but still indicative of a wider libertarian trend) is a point where the government should have funded a service & failed. Just like education.

If you're going to put a working fucking piano in the downstairs from me, you better be screening your guests for their ability to play the fucking thing. Assuming of course you don't want to find glue in your fucking keylock. 🤬

    @spytfyre Yeah, I've found another couple of apps like Tandem & Mixxer. The issue isn't so much finding people to talk to as the actual need to find something to make conversation about & the energy to do so. #introvert
