Asexuality, Socialism and Wargaming. Not necessarily in that order. Opinions here are my own, and are *exquisite*

At one point today I was rubbing a dog's belly with one hand, and a cat's tummy with my other hand, and I feel this might be the best thing that has ever happened on Easter Sunday.

If I had a 3D printer *hint hint* and the skills to design *hint hint* I would make a desklamp shaped like the Demon Core. You could even have a screwdriver as an on/off switch (If you do this *HINT HINT* then I want one. And royalties)

"stick to menswear"
Alex on twitter writes: "Someone on Twitter writes: "You’re a menswear writer. You don’t know anything about manufacturing in America, or steel mills, or metallurgy, or CNC machining, or how anything is produced from raw material into a finished product in this country or anywhere. Stick to writing about “men’s fashion.""

I reply: "i actually had a career in knifemaking before this. the reason why you can't avoid tariffs in knifemaking is because everyone relies on Gobelin machinery. are you aware of this?"

Alex replies: "Gobelin machinery? What exactly are you referring to?"

I reply: "you Gobelin DEEZ NUTS!"

Sneaky in-under-the-wire Pride post. I just finished reading this book, which has been in my Ace-related TBR pile for a while. I would highly recommend this for anyone who has done the "Am I Broken?" dance throughout their lives. I saw so much of myself in this that I am now having The Feels.

Post from X - Lydia Laurenson:
Vibegala theme this year was "the Hero's Journey" and I particularly loved the satirical Guerrilla posters that someone made to discourage attendees from heeding the call of Adventure.

Four posters are attached:
First "Your Father's Sword? Beware of scams" picture of old man handing a luke like figure from star wars a lightsaber. 
Second an image of the hero's journey circle with a red X on the bottom. The top has a red dot that says "Refusal of the call" with an arrow pointing to it that says Stop HERE.
Third is a poster that says "Rightful king of england? If it sounds legendary it's likely a con"
The Fourth days "What big adventure doesn't want you to know"an image of the hero's journey circle with a red X on the bottom. The top has a red dot that says "Refusal of the call" with an arrow pointing to it that says Stop HERE.

Below the circle is a list of red X's - X "Trials", X "Challenges", X "The Unknown" X "The Abyss", X "Personal Growth"Picture of a king and a maiden. The poster that says "Rightful king of england? If it sounds legendary it's likely a con"

"As a kid I fell in love with punk culture and then I was very active in the hardcore scene." Suicidal Tendencies is my favorite band. And even though I no longer actively participate, I financially support the CNA, Food Not Bombs and the IWW in my town.

The *smart* thing to do would have been to ignore the MASSIVE MORAL QUANDRY. Unfortunately, we were playing 7th Sea, and that is not what HEROES do. #ttrpg #7thSea #roleplay

I unfortunately won't have time to participate, but check that great initiative. Basically the idea is to paint and donate an apothecary mini before February 25, painted any color, to raise money for initiative against childhood cancer. Check @the_apothecarion on instagram for more infos.

"Questions From A Worker Who Reads" by Bertolt Brecht:
"Questions from a Worker Who Reads" by Bertolt Brecht:

Who built Thebes of the seven gates?
In the books you will find the name of kings.
Did the kings haul up the lumps of rock?
And Babylon, many times demolished.
Who raised it up so many times? In what houses
Of gold-glittering Lima did the builders live?
Where, the evening that the Wall of China was finished
Did the masons go? Great Rome
Is full of triumphal arches. Who erected them? Over whom
Did the Caesars triumph? Had Byzantium, much praised in song,
Only palaces for its inhabitants? Even in fabled Atlantis
The night the ocean engulfed it
The drowning still bawled for their slaves.

The young Alexander conquered India.
Was he alone?
Caesar beat the Gauls.
Did he not have even a cook with him?
Philip of Spain wept when his armada
Went down. Was he the only one to weep?
Frederick the Second won the Seven Years' War. Who
Else won it?

Every page a victory.
Who cooked the feast for the victors?
Every ten years a great man.
Who paid the bill?

So many reports.
So many questions

'3 absences in 12 months' is such a toxic way to manage workplace illness. Employers need to do some serious studying of chronic conditions and mental health and start supporting their staff.

The problem with audiobooks is that, when the inevitable spicy scene shows up, you're just trying to do a spreadsheet while a narrator gently whispers in your ear about dicks.

Posted on the other place, so will do here. I attended the Unison LGBT+ Conference last weekend, and was extremely privileged to be invited to speak as part of the Ace/Aro Identities panel on Saturday. It meant so much to be able to share experiences and help inform my TU comrades.

I've been reading a lot recently. Here are some of the books I have read and really enjoyed in the last few weeks. Not pictured: Harrowmaster by @mikebrooks668.bsky.social , because I can't find it. All four books are highly recommended though. Great reads!
