Dinners that feel like a play,

where we’re all trapped in a small space for hours on end,

people talking loudly over each with strong undercurrents of resentment,

and no actual food.

4.5 hours.

Incredibly frustrating dialogue. I do not enjoy this playwright's work.

My partner helped by giving massages and playing music, and thanking me for my patience.

I have four navy blue socks and zero matched pairs.

I got a new plant while I was out.

@ashleyspencer This pot had sat empty for a while. It was good to find a suitable plant. :)

@Cassandra it looks great with the pretty pot

Today I saw a car with the United Federation of Planets flag for a front licence plate.

Does anyone have advice on cleaning a leather couch?

A dog snoozed on it (mud, slobber, fur), and I don't trust the broader internet to answer factual questions at the moment.

Edit: Okay, sounds like I'm going to the hardware store this afternoon, for leather cleaner / conditioner / wipes.

Another reminder this morning of the importance of doing things promptly, given the ever increasing frequency of power failures.

I've been watching the Junior Year series, even though I'm not an active D&D player. They're such good collaborative, imaginative players.

I was enjoying free clips on youtube but ended up subscribed to Dropout TV when I desperately needed more context for Baron from the Baronies (Riz Gukgak's romaence partner).

Finished the season, and then went back to ep1. Currently watching a bank manager explain penalty payouts from a trust fund to a registered nemesis. So good.

@Cassandra I love those groups! I combat panic disorder by putting on one of the quieter quests at low volume and zzzzzzzz. Not saying they are boring. What they have is a quality of familiarity with each other that quietly screams safe family. For me. They are all talented.

@Lizette603_23 I have also sometimes just listened to the episodes instead of watching them. :) And also watched animated versions of clips. Much talent.

Crossed zero things off my to-do list today.

Deleted Wednesday. Typed Thursday.

@etherdiver Wednesday has been struck from the list :D

I cannot currently handle a phone conversation that would likely require more patience and diplomacy than I can contemporaneously muster.

I have asked my partner if he would consider sending a voice note instead. That way he can talk and I can hear his voice, but I have time to respond.

I tested the tech and set out the steps.

Now I wait.

@Cassandra assuming you’re using messenger on iOS there’s a setting to always keep voice memos I believe

If I want to play some media, the streaming website takes me to the "about” page.

Earlier: [cuts up mushrooms to make them easier to include in my meal later]

Later: [cooks meal having forgotten the existence of mushrooms]

I remembered the mushrooms.

I've always been drawn to the phrase "in this corner”

because it works both for introverts and sparring.

It amuses me to write really intricate poetry and then assign each unit the blandest title possible.

It never ceases to amaze me how consistently allistic people fail to hear clear spoken words in favour of secret subtext.

“Please rest assured that your comments have been forwarded to the appropriate management team” is not a sufficient response to close an inquiry.

@arcadetoken Businesses that actually resolve issues seem to be the minority…

@Cassandra Yep, and their metrics should eat that shit and their executives should take that blow to their ego until they decide to improve. Maybe that means 40 employees need to be fired over performance, or managed team underperformance, or failure to develop fixes in a timely manner. Or maybe nothing will happen because their top-down leadership is ass. But the customer and the company should agree that the problem is resolved, it shouldn't be a unilateral decision.
