I *know* I keep banging on about this, but just being able to do my job without feeling like I am fighting my own brain / dragging myself through treacle just to get the simplest things done is such an extraordinary feeling

Haven't needed to top up the fuel tank in my lovely new hybrid car since I bought it in mid January. I think it is going to pay well in savings despite the monthly outlay on the finance agreement.
This is a middle-aged post which I know will appeal greatly to a niche audience.

ALSO - if you missed out on your childhood measles vaccine and haven't had measles, you can get *free* MMR vaccination from your GP! (whether as an older child, teenager or adult).
I got my MMR about 10 years ago!

I am so sick of seeing landscape AI slop that has been blatantly trained on AJ Casson's art with no mention of his name, so here is some of his original work. He is one of my biggest inspirations and all-time favorite artists. AJ Casson's landscapes are stunning and so completely unique.

Conservative and reactionary centrist media is trying to set up a narrative in which GLP-1s are some kind of existential threat to body positivity and fat activism.
It's bullshit. If you want to lose weight, go for it. But not everyone can or wants to — and they deserve equal treatment regardless.

What GLP1s should teach people is that it was never about willpower and it isn't a moral issue. But people don't want to have that conversation.
