My net has been off since before 10am. I called to see what's going on cos the app says there's no known issues. They inform me there's a fault and it's being worked on. OK Virgin Media... So why DO YOU SAY IT'S WORKING? Honestly the worst network I've ever been with.

Still in pain today, my cat won't stop meowing at me, and my Internet is off AGAIN. Really not in the mood for this bullshit. Why has waking up and getting up got to be so fucking hard for me?

Update: As is often the case, I'm paying the toll for this with wrist and thumb agony. There is no justice in this world.

I defeated apathy and mowed the lawn! Take that, me!

Well I've managed to finally do the washing up after days of putting it off. But now I'm exhausted again. 😔 I might have to force myself painfully through this inertia cos the weather is perfect to mow the lawn. I really want it done. It's needed it for weeks. 😖

I'm having a real hard time getting out of bed this week. I have stuff to do and I want to do them, but I'm just not motivated. I've struggled all week with it. I'm trying to push forward but I'm still so damn tired all the time.

I mean, I get that it's impossible to boycott everything that has someone whose political views you disagree with in the supply chain. That's basically almost every product that exists. Just be aware that we now have a far-right weapons dealer selling Game Boys and a journalist murderer Neo-Geos.

The article I wrote for the mighty was literally called ‘This Autism Awareness Month don’t forget about Black Autistic women & what they do? Forget about Black autistic women lmao 🫠 themighty.com/topic/autism...

My laptop battery died about 7yrs ago. It never mattered, as I rarely traveled with it. But now the weather is getting nice, and I'm learning to code. So I'm getting it serviced so I can work on projects outdoors. Ya'll, I forgot how chonky this bastard is. It's 5kg! I need to save for a new one.😅

I wish I could figure out what it is Haru wants from the kitchen every day. She excitedly waits for me to open the fridge, I give her chicken or turkey, but she always looks disinterested in it. I've tried leaving the fridge open to see if she moves to something, but no, she just looks at me.

Today is National Exercise Day so here’s a list of my ten favourite exercises… 1. Jogging my memory 2. Skipping a workout 3. Surfing the net 4. Jumping to conclusions 5. Skating on thin ice 6. Pushing my luck 7. Running my mouth 8. Kicking up a fuss 9. Catching forty winks 10. Throwing in the towel

As someone who's started the switch to buying music again and is getting an MP3 Player so I can BLOODY LISTEN TO IT WHEN I WANT... ... Absolutely all this. I'm fucking sick of services that are garbage and require internet access and to give my email to everyone. Fuck off! Let me just enjoy shit!

I think this website is working again now!? So I can post that I now have some more £10 commissions available and here are some examples!

Another wip, still pretty rough!

Oh! I thought you'd all like a good laugh. Today I recorded video for about an hour, to explain why I haven't been streaming, and what the updates are about my housing situation. I went to start editing it down to a more manageable length... ... There's no mic audio. I'm gonna blog post it. 😔

Finished the main Heavensward MSQ in FFXIV. What a bloody brilliant story. Really enjoyed my time with our new companions. Next up, I guess I'm fighting inside a big robot (Alexander maybe)? And now I have a bunch of new harder versions of the Primals to fight. Not sure if I'm ready for Extremes.

Day 41 of learning to code: Finished the introduction to Git and integrated with GitHub! 🎉 This genuinely made me feel a lot more confident that I was making some real progress. I don't have anything of my own up on my GitHub just yet, but I'll be doing more soon! 👀

It's kinda terrifying every month trying to make sure everything is in the bank ready for when all my bills go out. I'm constantly having to move my savings around to make it add up, but they're running out and it's not gonna be possible eventually. Relying on benefits sucks ass.

I just met so many Goblins in FFXIV and I honestly don't need to go anywhere else in the game ever again. Let me build a house here Square!

Would it be crazy if I did another online name change? 🤔

Even though Fable is about the only thing I might be interested in from Xbox, I would be glad of it getting the space it needs. I don't know why they thought they should be able to realese this, with Halo and Gears within a couple months of each other. Bloody ridiculous with GTA6 on the horizon.

I didn't have running two communities on my bingo card for this year, but it's funny how saying "yes" or "fuck it, why not" will entirely change things. Does anyone have any tips for running a proper study group? Especially in a subject you're new to? I've never done it before.

Make this real.

Made a Discord for my coding "study group" last night and might've stayed up way too late to finalise it... Gonna try to take it easy today. I've barely slept.

Honestly so fucked off with my weight loss. I'm eating way less and way healthier. I'm going outside more. I'm trying to do exercise most days. I calorie count. But I've been stuck at 93kg for what feels like 2 months. I'm sick of carrying this extra weight around and looking awful. I'm trying!

Still so mad...

Day 36 of learning to code: Today's task had me set up a Github profile so I can start adding my projects to it. 👀 This weirdly made me feel like "Oh shit, this is real! I'm doing it!". The first sign I felt excited to be learning this new skill. 🥹 Definitely could do with some more of that. 💪

Day 35 of learning to code: This really tested me and kinda knocked my very meagre confidence. 🫠 I'll be honest I don't feel like I actually earned this. I needed my hand held at every step. I'm not certain I learned it. 😞 But anyway, next up: Learn Git! #bootdev #coding

Considering I'm literally trying to find a way out of both homelessness and poverty right now, this definitely strikes a chord with me. There's nowhere affordable anymore if you rely on benefits. I'm gonna be out of work for a while, so I need somewhere I can afford.

Salem is so pretty and I need you to see her!

Some good news: disabled people will get the “right to try” a job without fear of losing their out of work sickness benefits. Lots more needs to be done, of course, including reassurance over benefit rates, but this is a nod in the right direction. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

The charity reps arrive today to start helping me with my housing situation. I'm extremely nervous cos people don't come to my home often. I'm gonna be anxiously cleaning my flat for the next 3hrs.

That would be all well and good if it wasn't pushed as a workplace tool. You can't claim it's the future of productivity then say "it's only meant to be a laugh" when it goes wrong. "Don't use the Calculator app because sometimes it gets the sums wrong. We only made it to say BOOBIES upside down"
