Literally bumped into Terry Pratchett at a con. I had apologised and walked away before I fully processed who the man in the black hat actually was. Curse you, autistic facial blindness!

I e-mailed, and got a reply last night to say the interview date had been moved to next week. Which is a bit of a relief. But I'm still waiting to hear if I've been shortlisted.

I forgot my meds this morning so I've had the Donkey Kong rap stuck in my head through four back-to-back meetings. I hate my brain.

I applied for a job last week, and the ad said interviews would be on the 13th (this Friday). It's the 10th, and I haven't even had confirmation that they've received my application. Is it worth asking if they've actually received it, or should I wait another day or two?

Yes.

It has taken me an unreasonable amount of time to get my hands on this - Forbidden Planet is several books behind current releases, and Waterstones doesn't stock any JR at all.

Sometimes opening up social media feels like self-harm.

Although I am not currently too stressed about being made redundant in 2 months, I am stressed about a whole load of other work stuff, and the increasing possibility that I won't lose my job and will have to stay on at a place I no longer want to work. I'm sad and lonely and the world is on fire.

The Moor Market is the only place in Sheffield I've seen so far with any sign that it's Pride Month.

Well, I tried. But I'd got the dates mixed up for the first demo, which is actually next weekend 😓 and the second one had evidently not been well promoted because there was no one there besides the organisers 😬

There are a couple of demos in town today that I really should be at, but I am tired and sad and just want to mope.

Dan DaDan Evil Eye premier! And I remembered my Loops this time (because the sound levels were PAINFUL last time)!

Slightly concerned about how many of my colleagues are convinced that they are being marginalised for being straight, white, cisgender, able-bodied, neurotypical and British.

Look, I am 100% a barefoot shoe advocate, but Xero Shoes trying to tell me that a white rubber-soled fabric upper with a pull-tab is a "dress shoe"? No. Stop it. Words used to mean things.

Just saw a comedian say "If vaccines caused autism then America would have trains" and I almost spit out my drink.

This is beautful. And so simple. Queer people are scared. This is all you have to do as a cis het person to help take some of that fear away.

When I first got into anime and manga in university, I had no idea that my favourite genre would turn out to be 'pathetic middle-aged salarymen', but here we are. (Bonus points if one of them is voiced by Sugita Tomokazu.)

Still figuring out how the ADHD meds are affecting me - I have zero appetite for most of the day, until about 7pm when they wear off and suddenly I am ravenous. Which makes it hard to gauge whether I'm eating too much - if I'm hungry, I should eat, but I can't work out when I've eaten too much.

Do I watch the new Wes Anderson film, or do I leave it alone if Ayoade is involved? I'm assuming it was filmed before Ayoade expressed sympathy for Linnehan, or maybe WA is too far removed from terf island to know, but I'm still uncertain.
