Went to the beach with a pal this morning (no pics, it was at the women's only ocean baths so I could get my tits out). Now feeling: salty fresh

For a job that's only supposed to be 72 hours a fortnight, it's wild how often we end up working over 90. Which doesn't sound too bad but damn, shift work takes it out of ya. At least my income is 📈 My mental and physical health is 📉

Further to my irritation of the podcasts-are-now-videos trend: if I am a paid subscriber to your content platform that has its own app and ALSO ALREADY DOES VIDEO, don't tell me to go watch podcasts on youtube, a completely different platform with advertising.

Continuing the theme of teenage sex and death (go see Camp Miasma) went to The Heathers musical last night. Suicide featured pretty heavily when I was a teen, and people I know just keep doing it. So. Yeah. But hey, I'm always here for fit men taking their shirts off, and there was a lot of that.

Pet hate right now is that all my podcasts are going to a video format and fuck offfffff. Now you all do a "oh those listening can't see this, so I'll describe it...". Ugh, I signed up to an audio format. I do not like computer anymore, so I'm not sitting in front of a monitor at all now *grump*

So I feel like I've been to enough funerals recently to be in a position to judge that today's was the absolute worst yet. No celebration of life, all religions passages & sermons. Amazing fucking Grace the only hymn. Nothing of the man himself evident in the short service. He would have hated it.

Team, I am dealing with yet another death (co-worker's suicide) and as I prepare to go to the 4th funeral of the year, I am grateful for pals who take me to hardware stores and help me paint walls, and others who let me join them on dog walks in nice parks on sunny days. How good are good friends?

Anyway, let's roll the dice on new hormonal BC. Will it balance me? Or will I be thrown into a black hole of depression like every other time I've tried? I don't even need it for the birth control! Everyone I fuck has a vasectomy. It's just I'm nearly 40 and I am fucking over periods and PMS.

i think the big data center backlash has a lot to do with technology getting worse, costing more, building a surveillance state, destroying the environment, owned by a class of wealthy elite that coalesced behind the fascist regime that made clear they’d sacrifice humanity for their own power growth

How do you dress a fat man who died skinny and gaunt? I bought him new pants for his birthday 3 weeks ago because all of his were way too big. This guy had got rid of all his formal wear by the end too, so the old Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts he wore on several whanau Christmases it is.

My father is literally on his death bed, barely able to move or communicate, yet managed to wink at a hospice nurse tonight when she was joking with him. A gentleman with a sense of humour to the end.

If you catch a bus in the Northern Beaches in Sydney and the Opal reader is off, tell your bus driver you support them. This is NOT A STRIKE like the message in maps has, no labour is being withdrawn. You won't see live tracking in apps with the readers off is all.

vale isaac. you were the one single unproblematic member of the 00s auckland goth scene. you made the world a better place than you left it.
a photo taken at a goth night in the mid 00s. i'm in the middle, one of my dreadlocks got caught up in my glasses, lol. lilly sits to my left (your right). isaac sits beside me. i must've just finished telling a joke, or a story, as he is laughing uproariously. he lived passionately. what i remember the most of him is him being the most honest, most intense, the most unconventional of everybody i'd ever known. he was an english teacher and he must have left thousands of teenagers better off than when he met them, and who can claim that sort of impression on our lives? he was one of the best of us, and i'll miss him.
