I'd like to say I'm really starting to hate the job market, but I've always hated the job market: "This is a trainee role, we'll teach you everything you need to know. Also you need a high school diploma or equivalent. Technical certification is a plus. Oh and you need prior experience and a DL"

Apparently Clacton have voted Nigel back in. Guess they like being neglected. Also he's opted to not be present for the count claiming the police advised him there was a plot to embarrass him. Not much you can say on either point but I expect the latter to be another lie of his

Bill Oddie has been claimed? Damnit Death, you're taking the wrong people again!

Impressive, I've somehow lost my glasses and can't find them anywhere. What makes it more impressive is that there are basically only 2 places I take them off for any length of time

I do love* how much the weather is lying. My weather station has been repeatedly showing higher temperatures than what the weather forecasts are claiming *I hate hate HATE it, it's too warm, sod off

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 10/07/2026

36.1°C is the current highest temperature my weather station has recorded outside here in Leeds It's meant to be 31 This is bloody ridiculous

Can Farage just fade into obscurity already? Do us all a bloody favour

I'm actually looking forward to giving my portable AC a rest after today. Poor thing has been running non stop all week because it's too frigging warm

000

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

Too warm... Taking amusement that someone nearby apparently has one in a caravan that's 15C though. Either that's one chill caravan or their system is fried

Ah fuck the idiots have voted Reform to our ward. Time to see how long it takes for her to suck ass then

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Gonna be interesting seeing the election results tomorrow. See if the noise matches the reality

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 27/04/2026

Needless to say I don't think anyone apart from the cult believe the "assassination" attempt was real, I'm seeing rumours of an email been sent with Kash Patel apparently being a named exception for targeting. Either people are making shit up, or they really think people are that stupid

Civic duty done, I love being a postal voter, I can fill it in whenever I want and send it off without having to fart around with people, queues and pencils Just a shame I have to renew every 3 sodding years for the privilege

Our local Reform candidate propaganda letter came today, they were doing so well at explaining absolutely nothing of use, trying to use their background as a creative to be flowery, before attacking the Greens about policies that have nothing to do with local elections.

Yup, just a tiny Union jack in a pile of leftover pothole rubble

Started doing a bit of dabbling into Skyrim modding and started off with a couple of things that always bothered me, and one that ibthougut would be funny x3 www.nexusmods.com/profile/Soma...

Just had a Reform crapaganda letter through the door from their notorious printer, least they managed to avoid their fake letter "oops we cut off the Reform stuff" *mistake* (I'm sure they'll repeat it soon enough when enough time has passed for them to pretend it was another accident)

Today's funny job: IT Intern Required to know python, Java, data science, cloud infrastructure, azure Employer? National wealth fund They've hidden the wage in the listing: £23k

Today is not going well for me: Bought the wrong sized piping to replace external sink drainage that was falling apart - have to buy a converter because taking everything back it effort Stop tap won't fully turn off Trying to replace a leaker tap to find one of the washers is stuck and won't turn

It seems a number of the reform bots have become restore bots without removing their Reform bot pictures and stuff. Just waiting for the reclaim bits to start up as well

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Nothing like broadband price increase robbery. Apparently I can renew at £22.99, it then goes up to £26.99 NEXT MONTH then goes up by another £4 to £30.99 next year Daylight fucking robbery with these places now

As much as I appreciate being sent job opportunities directly, I have to question the black of reading comprehension that I was sent one to be a health and wellbeing adviser that's remote but also involves travelling around the city to deliver presentations such.

I swear website ads are getting worse, especially on mobile which has poor build in ad blocking (and googles so called ad blocking is basically useless). It's like we've gone back to the 90s but instead of pop ups it's auto play and ads that take up the whole screen. We even have hard to click Xs

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 10/02/2026

Taking great amusement in running the Khajiit Will Follow and Sa'chil mods on Skyrim. We're a khajiit death squad basically xD

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

There is something morbidly fascinating about people who literally only have to do what's on the screen in front of them, in a system that tells them where a problem is, spending a significant amount of time asking someone who can't see their screen what the problem is.

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

I think I can safely say that programming isn't for me. Half way though a 6 hour online session and I'm just not interested at all (plus it's getting ruined by people who already know python who inexplicably joined a beginners course and keep chiming in)

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 06/02/2026

Was checking out some takeaways on JE and loads are now charging a fiver for delivery. Toss in JEs bullshit collection of charges and you're basically paying for your food twice, the hell?

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 06/02/2026

I miss when devices uses to stay up to date of their own accord when you left them on. You seem to constantly have something out of date now even when the update was released days ago and there's zero reason why it shouldn't have been updated overnight

000

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

I miss when windows actually used to shut down when told to with updates and wait for you to turn it back on yourself, instead of ignoring you completely and rebooting

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

Finally got me a CPAP and just as well, it turns out my sleep test results were pretty concerning. 100 times an hour I stopped breathing, and those gaps were pretty consistently basically 20-30 seconds each time. My blood oxygen level got so bad it literally fell of the scale x.x

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

Rather amusing moment in Skyrim there, dropped some junk arnour I'd picked up, bandit walks up to me and politely asked if they can have, I say they can. The moment the dialogue closes? "Never should have come here" so I stabbed him in the face with my paralysis dagger xD

UKIP (going ahead with the use of the dodgy icon they're not allowed to use) have jumped on the far right Christian bandwagon too I see

Interesting, just read an article about confidence in AI upskilling from mid career professionals Most likely to agree they'll learn about AI in the next 6 months: Gen Z - 40% Millennials - 63% Gen X - 61% Boomers - 47% It gets a little more interesting as I keep reading though

Every day I see more Trump shit and I'm starting to think less of him needing to hurry up and shuffle off the mortal coil, and more that the mortal coil needs to throw him off and be done with it. Like seriously, if it's not rampant denials about his physical and mental health, it's his stupidity

000

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 23/01/2026

Trump threatening to retaliate if any country sells US securities? Other than tantrums and threats does he have anything that would actually make a difference?

000

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

Danish lawmaker told Trump to fuck off xD He got told off as it wasn't proper for the environment, but let's be honest, I imagine a lot of people present share the sentiment xD

I love my steam deck, but it really blows at syncing data between itself and my PC nicely

Soma Covington @somacovington.bsky.social · 19/01/2026

It's funny whenever I see threads about WW2 and how some people try to big up the US contribution Reminds me of MMO players who've spent ages whittling a bosses HP down, and the US is some rando who appears near the end, gets one hit in then acts like their contribution was the deciding factor

Local MP posting in the local community group to get people's feedback on banning fireworks, and some of the usual suspects (including one who was kicked out of Reform as a candidate because they were deemed "too racist") going on about "illegal" immigrants
