  My wee ginger buddy Charlie died this week. She was the best. I loved this cat so much, but she was really unwell, and I missed it. I didn't know. I feel so bad. The little bugger was on my lap daily, purring and head-butting, and I didn't know until too late that she was badly unwell. It's taken me nearly a week to type this out. The pain is fucking huge for such a tiny street-rescue ball of fur. Goddamn it.

  I don't think we should have movie posters on billboards with imagery of people pointing guns at people. I'm not saying ban the movies, but you wouldn't have (as a completely different example) a full-on porn billboard in general public places. Surely gun violence is magnitudes worse than folk bumping flesh for pleasure.

  Today marks three weeks since I ordered my new home server from Amazon US. The order was accepted immediately, but it still hasn't shipped. The support chat always says it's currently closed, the call back feature only offers to call US numbers, and an international support line randomly disconnects after a few minutes on hold. I even emailed them a week ago, and no reply. I don't even know if it's ever coming. It's tedious.

  I was already awake when the earthquake hit this morning at 04:50. It's was a couple of seconds of light, unspecified jiggling, followed by 3-4 thrusts - kind of like an amorous ghost was humping on the bed. It was all over pretty quickly. #eqnz

  Loot dropped after defeating me: - 537 obsolete cables - audio, video, computer, wtf is this one nobody knows - 3 receipts - a bar tab, chocolate bar purchase, electronic cable purchase - half empty strip of painkillers - gym pass (unused)

  Dear fellow workers of Aotearoa New Zealand: Should you feel heavy and weary toward the end of a hard week, be bouyed by the knowledge that it's not just you - gravity is heavier here than elsewhere on this planet, as evidenced per the Potsdam Potato https://www.universetoday.com/articles/the-potsdam-gravity-potato-shows-earths-gravity-variations

  Far Right UK Arse-Rag "The Telegraph" is claiming the recent heatwaves are due to there not being enough pollution recently. Fire up the coal burners, Jeeves, this heatwave nonsense won't fix itself! No you can't have a link and no I didn't RTFA the headline was enough

  Just seen a 'Best Before' date of 13th June 2031 on a food item and I feel like that's bold optimism for the survival of humanity 😅

  Designated driver this evening, zero sauce. I kind of like it, watching folk get progressively sillier.

  I don't want the long weekend to be finished. Long weekends are great. I may have to do a little petulant stomp. 🦵

  Monday Morning Essjax will be so pleased with me if I push through and get this work done today, but current Friday Afternoon Essjax says no. It's a pickle.

  I finally kicked Adobe Creative Cloud out of my life, and yikes that shit clings on like an ex-lover who refuses to accept reality. First they tried to give me a million discounts, then they threated several hundred dollars of "exit fee", and when they relented and cancelled my account without a fee, the software refused to uninstall. "Creative Cloud Uninstaller is unable to continue. Please stay, I'll change, I promise, I really will, you won't regr...

  Overheard at the office: "Oh yeah the toilets there were bisexual" "Do you mean Unisex?" "Oh, I think so" *chuckles* Speaker was 'English as a Second Language' but laughing with and not at them.

  I was walking in my neighbourhood, things were normal. A crisp autumn day, low sun, birds twittering. A rubbish truck came along behind me. I didn't know I was dreaming, all was normal. The truck came alongside, and I see it has a picture of British comedian Joe Wilkinson on the side. It says "Joe Wilkinson's Trash Service" and I remember, in the dream, seeing him on TV explaining that 'Trash Service' sounds classier than 'Waste Removal&a...

  Photographed in a forest, called a 'force of nature' and named the "Rebel Hurricane". Dickhead monster-truck company naming their ridiculous planet-killers after climate change disasters is next level fuckheadedness.
