Increasingly concerned re: people offloading vital cognitive processes by using GIF replies. Expressing snark with words is a core part of being human, don't let some GIF picker widget a startup preloaded with clips of mid range TV shows take that from you!

looking into XMPP. previously I shat on mastodon and matrix for making their own clients, but now I kinda see why. you really need someone to set a baseline of functionality/usability this sympathy doesn't extend to mastodon, their mobile clients still suck

I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

I love sucking off American corporate todger, I love needlessly stupidly designed government websites to "compare" thing using completely arbitrary measures no one understands, I love that my fucking phone provider has to make critical information summaries but not healthcare providers

Compare Policies

Step 2 of 6 Hospital services
Hospital cover may not meet all your hospital expenses, and you should check with your doctor and hospital for any out-of-pocket expenses
relating to an admission. Although policies often cover services you may not need, this does not necessarily mean they are more expensive.

- Services you select as important will always be fully covered.
- If a hospital service is fully covered; it doesn't matter if the policy is Gold, Silver or Bronze; the benefits will be the same.
- Tap or click on the (i) for more information.

Do you want policies that provide... (i)
- Private hospital cover for most services
- Limited benefits, e.g. public hospital only or few services covered

What is the minimum hospital tier that you require? (i)
- Gold
- Silver
- Bronze
- Basic
- Don't care

this isn't very popular to say, but for me personally, it was good that i had unrestricted internet access when i was a minor. i was aware of what i was doing and enjoyed it. i don't look back on it and go "well that was a mistake", i look back on it and wish i could do it for the first time again
