Netrunner is still alive! And is free online and

This is good, Netrunner is good

Play Netrunner with me, nerds

So like

After surgery and the GRC was done I got discharged, never heard from the GIC again, etc

Now a few years later, I'm wondering. Cuz.. US trans people apparently see an endo every once in a while? And that sounds.. Uh, sensible?

But this is the NHS, so.. I imagine doing so over here would involve getting re-referred, put back on the waiting list, etc.

Does anyone have any experience of longterm/post-transition trans healthcare under the NHS? Is that a thing that.. Exists, structurally at all?

Anyone had to put a stake through the heart of the Windows update auto-restarter lately, and know of the most recent viable method?

Mine's reanimated itself after various regedits and w/e have apparently been patched out, and now every time I go to make a cup of tea it pops up the doomsday clock

I just saw a top online sold as "frilly, distressed"

100% mood

Sometimes Nottinghamshire just seems like it's going out of its way to be bucolic

And how people smack each other with 'em to great effect

- Longbat is long, and the cushion's for a standard chair with shorter length, so I had to pad out the back seperately
- Now the rim covers are Green, there's nowhere near enough Purple in the ~aesthetic~. (the standard cushion is in Melancholic Institutional Grey, too)
- My chair didn't come with sideguards, so clothes get dirtied by tires too much. Can do sideguards mounted on the cushion with sufficient interfacing & structure.

I've been sewing a cushion cover for my wheelchair lately, and am trying to remember to like, take photos semi-regularly.

News soon spread through China that Guan Yu takes criticism of his air guitar routine rather poorly

Hammond the Hamster is the most subversive Overwatch character cuz he steals and recycles the tools of an oppressive institution to free himself from it

send toot

the "Average spearman solos an entire army every night" factoid is inaccurate. Charging Georg is a statistical outlier who should not be counted

Extremely Moira Voice: "The true war is between trying not to cross your legs due to back pain, and finding it extremely calming because it's a pressure-stim."

I made a curry on Tuesday with PA's help!

It was the first time I cooked a like, big recipe meal in.. Uh.. Literally-years. And I had to do the last bit solo because time constraints, but I still managed it, and it was really good!

(Not something I could do on a weekly basis energywise, but something she could, I think)
