Don't let good be the enemy of done
Don't let done be the enemy of napping and doing it some other time
Hey friend, if you have some spare cash, could you please give me a hand with my gender-affirming care costs?
Most care I need to feel safe in my own skin isn't available on the NHS (too old and also too not-binary), with the private medical costs I'm already paying a part-time carer's salary only goes so far.
Anything would help reduce long gaps between treatment.
Thank you <3

Earlier I accidentally posted a message intended for my polycule chat to a different group chat.
Now everyone knows how depraved our chat is!
...I was double-checking our shopping list. :P
When setting a timer for 10:00, why dial 1000 when 960 is one fewer button press?
I'm releasing another idea from my todo list that I'm never going to do. I'm placing this into the public domain, anyone can take it and use it for any purpose.
A bot that, every hour, posts one random word from a random language, followed by the day of the week (UTC) in that language, such that both words start with the same letter.
So today we might have Fennec Friday, Folge Freitag, Végétarien Vendredi, etc.
It must correctly set the language of its post.
Bonus points: crap wordart logos.
In other news, my local Sainsbury's seems to be A-B testing the concept of pride month.
About half of the self-scanner thingies had pride backgrounds, the other half had just plain orange.
"Looking for a flat, don't have much money."
I do know of one. Two bedrooms, separate kitchen, bathroom, £2.50 a week.
"That's terrific, we'll take that!"
Hang on, there are drawbacks. For one, it's next door to a Chinese restaurant.
"That's no problem, I like Chinese food!"
And on the other side, there's a Chinese laundry.
"Well that'll be handy for when I spill sweet and sour down my shirt!"
And there *is* a bit of a commute...
"Nah, it'll be fine, where is it?"
Hong Kong.
Ok maybe it's not as bad as some people are saying.
"Ubuntu is the ideal OS for AI developers" is a very different statement from "We're firing all our devs and handing over development to Microslop Copilot" which is what some room-temperature takes have been saying.
Still not a good look in 2026. But doesn't seem worth dropping Ubuntu over.
I'm surprised nobody's opened a knockoff Apple store called .DS_Store
