Someone inside Amazon trying to fix AWS which appears to have taken down half the known internet with it's outage

It took me 1hr 20 to drive 20 miles this morning. The M27 sucks ass at the best of times but that takes the piss, I could be in zone 1-4 London, 3 times as far away in that time.

Sunday scaries with a side of migraine, love that for me

Game nights 🏒⛸️🔥

Anyone: hey, can I ask you about (insert one of my special interests)? Me: *becomes an unskippable cutscene*

Reached the stage of life where waking at 7.30 is a lie in

They’re selling Uggs I’m crying

It baffles me that my SO is either young enough (23) or not involved in the office world enough that they genuinely don't know how to use a windows PC. They grew up with tablets at school and touch screen whiteboards and things so basically didn't use computeres which is WILD to me.

We have some more good news for the trans community. Following this decision (www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWH...) in June in which we stopped the EHRC's landlord's attempt to injunct trans people from protesting against the transphobic policies of the EHRC... goodlawproject.org/the-ehrc-is-...

You know those days were literally fucking everything is going wrong?

It’s actually so refreshing to hear @zackpolanski.bsky.social talk about trans rights and not back away when the usual pearl clutchers start banging on. 💚

An air to air heat pump based split unit air con system not only keeps your home lovely and cool, but it's also a surprisingly effective heating system too. If you can't get gas, it's vastly cheaper than panel or storage heaters run too.

When the recipient completely ignores the content of the first e-mail because it wasn't the answer they were looking for.

Tiktok launched a sort of quasi-orchestral violin cover of Golden Brown by the Stranglers at me and I'm fucking obsessed

Basically me today

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

It's amazing to me that an entire era of YouTube famous people just completely blew past me. Like they're in my consciousness but that's about it. Anyway glad for Dan and Phil? 16 years to keep it hidden, beyond sort of dangling the possibility in the air, is WILD

Fountain pen error #274: I've become so used to my Pilot Custom 823 essentially never running out of ink that I am now on the precipice of running out in the office. It's my only black ink EDC and need black for certain things. 😅

I go on the big holiday in about a month's time and honey, I need it.

Monday.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

I didn't get very far last time I got into #startrekonline previously but sticking with it - and, with my first infinity box unlock, I lucked out with a T6 ship unlock. Picked the Trafalgar class, proper simp for that TMP vibe and she's a machine.

I have to be social etc in like an hour and not even maccies breakfast has saved me from the hangover, kill me

Also I'm hanging out of my ass send help.

Corrected* post, fat fingers moment - TWSBI need to stop with the coffee tone fountain pens cause I can't resist them. New mini collection formed 🙏

I havent played Star Trek: Online in a v long time but decided to yolo and pick it up, why not

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it? Chiitan forever

These images are separated by one day

My local Asda, the only place that stocked 24 packs of coke zero decaf, have replaced it with coke zero cherry. I have to drive to a whole different town for caffeine free now #firstworldproblems

How far the mighty can fall.

we hit 2 billion posts today! 🥳

After not buying fountain pen stuff in months, I have two coffee themed TWSBIs on the way to me and I am ✨excited✨

Post haircut gay powers restored etc

People who say audiobooks don't count as reading are fuckin losers

Well I never

God damn it, this one hurts

On holiday next month with an overnight stay in FL. I *really* want to go to an NHL game and Florida Panthers are playing the day we land at home....but they play within 30 minutes of landing.

More people should watch Babylon 5 send skeet

What do you mean the things on that little metal box are more important than me?

Lunch time wanderings

Anyone who starts christmas talk before halloween should be committing a crime.

Going to my first EIHL away game in about a months time at the other end of the UK, I can't waittttt.

Why must the committed jock types at the gym rove in wolfpacks? I feel like a sea lion being pursued around the machines by a pod of orcas. Leave me be.

I want to roadtrip the Scottish Highlands again

My job is 50/50 litigation debt recovery and front end new lending legal work, there's a lot of phone calls. The genuine fear I feel of the external phone is intense and is already aging me.

Needing a 20 minute pep talk to pick up the phone to someone at work.

I've been rewatching #startrek #TNG. Controversial take, Pulaski isn't *bad* she's simply human. She has misguided early doors views but throughout s2 her attitude to Data matures massively. By Peak Performance she's as probably one of his strongest advocates and I love that growth.

Jesus. Gamepass price rises are a step too far for me.

11:08pm musings about winning euromillions, buying a house somewhere beautiful in the countryside and writing books no one buys in my spare time until I'm old.
