Why is it hard to find a basic-ass veneriform star for the tree? Everywhere has LED ones. I already don't like LED Christmas lights because they look like my piss does after a fourth Monster!

Me, a marine biologist.
Holiday at sister's house for a fortnight.
Borrow 7yo niece's room.
Niece likes fish, knows I like fish too.
Niece changes the sheets before I arrive.
Gives me the fishiest bedding she owns!
Oh my heart! 🥰

I'm going to assume that @legaleagle.tv is working on this one already. For what it's worth, this is about a woman who was almost killed by medical neglect, and her solicitor is apparently still catching his jacket sleeves on things 'cos his Mam got it to grow into.

Daggerheart tonight!
The players left off at the scene of an explosion and a shootout on a residential street in the Lichgate district. They're about to get a dose of arrestsposition, and find out about two of the factions in the city-state of Winterhaven.

I just saw a song called 5318008.
The song is by a trans woman.
I thought "ooh, I wonder what that's about" in full fucking sincerity.
Two master's degrees, folks!
Jesus fucking wept.

So this Visa payment situation feels like it should be illegal. It feels like a monopoly that big should be bound by some kind of neutrality law. Is that something that folks can lean on the EU about?

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!
survey.gendercensus.com
It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

Physical illness: thousands of types.
Physical illness: thousands of interventions.
Mental illness: 298 types in the DSM-5.
Mental illness: CBT, mindfulness, or antidepressants. Or speed if it's ADHD. Oh and they're still shocking autistic kids in some parts. So like five interventions.

Got turned down for pain clinic because I've got PTSD on my records from 30 years ago.
I dunno how the next few months are gonna go. So: dissection tools, blåhaj, skip the pickling, and the orthoses stay on.
Hopefully I find a workaround instead.

Five facts:
1) The steel tube runs directly behind the back of the skull.
2) There is no cushion on the steel tube.
3) Most collisions are front-on.
4) Wheelchair users ride backwards.
5) Some engineer somewhere needs his arse kicked.

"Trump is in the Epstein files." We know that. It's only a bombshell if you know something of the extent, which is what Elon Musk is really implying. To be clear though, Musk was perfectly fine with that for as long as Trump was buying his overpriced and woefully underbuilt cars. Just saying.
