Reasonably sure I just bought a new version of the exact same Fantastic Furniture couch I bought in 2014.

I don't fully grasp what "government shutdown" is supposed to mean, but if we're in a situation where food programs stop but ICE raids continue, we've really wrecked our society.

When I say I've moved a lot (too much...). 11 years go this week I moved into a flat in Alexandria NSW. Last week I moved into a house we bought in Perth. Lived at 5 different addresses in the USA between those two points.

Perhaps the USA could administer this drug to SCOTUS and we'd be able to convict some obvious criminals too!

Oh yeah, no worries, makes sense. None of this will lead to catastrophic, completely preventable human death, I am sure.

Beat the new Mech ending in Rimworld's recent expansion. This will mean little to most of you, but it was an epic, pyrrhic victory which cost me several pawns. We limped back to the surface, starving and dying even as we landed. Mental breaks across the board, pigskin raid immediately... amazing.

While we're having some discourse about media "objectivity" today, let's review this, from Regina Marchi in TWENTY TWELVE (2012).
![Mainstream news media’s “objectivity” was not something the teens found useful. George, 16, spoke sarcastically about the concept of objectivity, implying that reporters used it to appear unbiased while glossing over wrongdoings: In a news story, you can’t say certain things. Like you can’t point fingers and say, “Well, he screwed up the economy by overpaying everybody and making stocks crash.” You have to be more “objective” [sarcastic tone] about it, you have to say [mocking official voice], “This company crashed because of the ‘financial crisis.’”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:egh5s7xe5oeirafldcumzjg3/bafkreiecxhg2klvmck522wd5mganh66hjakktc5r6jgwn3cdevgiwk3gyq@jpeg)
