Can literally talk shit for hours.
Rewatching Stargate SG1 and something that never occured to me when I was younger is how autistic coded Daniel Jackson is. He is:
1) very hyper focused on his special interest
2) highly moral with a strong sense of injustice
3) terrible with people and social situations.

Uegh the man opposite me on the train has his phone so loud I can hear it through noise cancelling headphones and music. I think people at the other end of the carriage can hear as well.

Hmm I wonder why an all female space flight is attracting so much hate when similar flights are usually completely ignored. Yes it was a corporate stunt and a few of the passengers are complete imbeciles but that doesn't make it open season on the crew of the flight (which was in fact all female).

I can believe this result. ME services in the NHS are terrible. I had a good experience relative to lots of people. My GP and the ME clinic were sympathetic but just didn't have anything useful to offer. For others their medical care has been actively harmful.
3) Most respondents rated their experience with the NHS as poor or very poor. Only a tiny minority (< 7%) of ME/CFS patients had a good experience.

Want to know WHO these sick & disabled ppl who lose their benefits are going to be?

By primary condition, up to:

90% of cancer patients
86% of people with MS
84% of those with serious psychiatric disorders
74% of stroke survivors
56% of claimants with cerebral palsy

Do these sound trivial to you?

Just cooked dinner in the air fryer. It beeped to say it had done. Took the food out and it was cold. That's when it dawned on me I'd turned on the empty side not the side with my food in!!

Most of my energy budget today was used by getting up, getting breakfast. Have been reclined since but still burning through points. Either I'm coming down with something or about crash hard. Pacing is supposed to be the answer to all our problems but the slightest thing can make it impossible #ME

‘Government Narratives About ‘Disabled Scroungers’ Give Trolls Permission to Viciously Attack Us Online’

The notion that disabled people are scroungers and benefit cheats is almost permission to further abuse against them, Penny Pepper writes

On Thursday, the US Food and Drug Administration approved suzetrigine for short-term pain management, making it the first non-opioid pain drug given a regulatory nod in more than 20 years.

I was a bad cat mum today. I ran out of Dreamies!!

My attempt to explain this did not go down well. Do not fear I have restocked and apology Dreamies have been dispensed.

Realised I haven't looked at that other site in weeks. Have just about completely replaced it here. So now it's gone.

Failbook is harder because so many people I know only use that and there isn't an alternative that fulfils the same function.

Meanwhile my inbox has been absolutely flooded with personal attacks and things like photos of dogs shitting. All because I said something that mildly supported Labour. It seems Bluesky is destined to go the way of other place very fast.
