Capitalism 

Here's something shitty about capitalism that I feel doesn't get talked about enough: It creates situations where you're just waiting for things to be over. Life is finite. Ideally you should cherish every moment. But a lot of us spend every work day waiting for the day to be over so we can go home. We start looking forward to the month being over because that's when we get paid. We spend most of the week waiting for the weekend. This isn't a good way to spend your life.

You know how elves are always seen as thin and weak?

Well..I don't think that should be the trope anymore!

@JulieSqveakaroo

Oh! This is lovely!

Thank you so much! *squeakyhugs!*

So, it seems to be agreed that a balloonie sharkgirl is good. Now..I need a name, and what type of shark..?

US Citizen?

Take a moment to protest the monstrous rule stripping away protections from our transgender friends. Protections that prevent them being denied medical care when dying of injuries.

This is important.

In slightly better news, I have found a way to disable both Pocket and the advertising for a Firefox account, without needing to build Firefox from source.

It still has the code in there, but..it's better than nothing.

In "about:config":

Set "extensions.pocket.enabled" to false
Set "identity.fxaccounts.enabled" to false

Restart your browser.

I'm just feeling a little bit grumpy, I need something to cheer me up.

A little snarky 

@julianruf

I'm not surprised at all. I don't think they'll succeed, but I've been wrong in the past.

Emergency Management, Fustrated 

Come on, New Zealand is more prepared than us! They must be looking at us like we're out of it!

Emergency Management planning for private people should not be a four letter word. If something terrible were to happen, you would panic.

Yes, I am dragging most the UK population with this, but..I've stopped caring.

Would a Balloonie Shark, who runs server stuff be a good character to add?

Okay..okay, time for something more cheerful.

Bad news is..I couldn't get the buttons to fit flush on the Raspberry Pi case, despite me trying.

Good news is that at least, my initial idea of getting the power button out of an awkward place still holds out..so..yay?

Since when did we end up in an episode of Black Mirror? I know it's not Charlie Brooker writing it, as his writing is better than whoever's writing this one!

re: aaaaangerrrrrr 

@InTheLandOfTheRisingSun Uh..did you watch the Black Mirror episode "White Christmas?" It could end badly.

Hmm... 

@jd

It's almost as if people want to defend fascists..but why? What could they gain from it?

I'm at a loss as to how and why.

Hey, uh..anyone know what's going on around here? I've noticed some wires going missing and squeaking too, before hearing water splash about.
