@scanlime Cars are a weapon of mass destruction and should probably be illegal.
(...yes, I too drive one pretty much every day, but only with the greatest reluctance. :blobcatupsidedown:)

Huh -- score one for Hetzner. ✅️ (...which may or may not cancel out the negative thing they did the other week, which I can't remember at the moment.)
@ricardoharvin Is that where all this nonsense came from. I thought it was more to do with the "stranger danger" BS -- but maybe they came together to the party.
Makes a horrible kind of sense, anyway.
That's a law in need of some editing, for sure.
@leeuw Me being me, I put them back in the bag, pulled out the old staples, re-stapled the cardboard label, and hung it back up on the pegboard where I found it. NOBODY NEED EVER KNOW.
(...didn't there usedta be a "spy" emoji?)
Hey everyone!
I'm a chronically disabled bean in need of Mutual aid ♡
Went to the doctor a few days ago and got a referral for a DIE scan [checking for Endometriosis]
I'm already dealing with POTS and iron that's so low it's off the charts, my chronic bursitis has been flaring up making it harder to get up every day.. just need to know what is making everything worse this time..
I'm having to pay $450 [aud] upfront with only $160 rebate
I was also meant to get an iron infusion [$170] but after getting the meds I'm ran out of I can't even afford that. Iron will have to wait until next paycheck, this DIE scan really can't...
I've put down a $50 deposit for the booking and have $350 left from my paycheck this fortnight
All I need is another $50
I have Wise- [https://wise.com/pay/me/rileyleeh2]
I also have payid- pm me and I'll send my number over ♡
If you can't donate then please boost !!
needing all the help I can get ..

@FiXato Ooh, I experimented with reading a Pratchett out loud too! (It was Wyrd Sisters, iirc -- I think I did one chapter.)
Being able to do all of one character's lines together would definitely help for consistency, so I'd be interested if you find anything that helps with this ^.^
@riley @gildilinie @twipped ...or a very lightly-tested and somewhat-used OceanGate submersible...
TFW you can't find either of the things you know you have which would solve the problem more elegantly, so you have to kluge something by opening a virgin unopened bag of parts from #RadioShack.
...and then it turns out you didn't need them after all. I have needlessly defiled a sacred relic, and I hate it when that happens.
(Who among us has not experienced this tragic turn of events, I ask unto thee.)
So, anyway, the office's hifi amp (Yamaha CR-600), which weighs at least as much as your average laser-printer, is now in the equipment loft overhead -- so I can finally get this goldang full-height equipment rack outta here...
When authoritarians gain power, the circle which defines "us" gets narrower and narrower as they need fresh scapegoats to blame for their continuing and escalating screwups.
@artemis "we are the Good people, therefore anything we do is Good" seems to be a common (though often unspoken) belief...
@artemis I think I'd only modify that by saying "it's going to get worse but also some things will get better, so it's not just terrible ghastly awfulness from here until we Fix All the Things".
@gildilinie @riley ...and ye gods, but also this was totally predictable. I hope it turns out nobody actually got infected... but that won't stop this from happening again, until we get Pestilence away from being in charge of anything to do with health (which probably won't happen until we get Greed out of office).
