I wasn't too worried when I lost my wallet last week. I'm sure it's somewhere in the house. Well I just found it, it's been through a washer dryer cycle and all my cards have turned into shrinky dinks.

Having a meeting with a colleague who does a 4 day week and who's in a different timezone. Anyway now it's their WEEKEND and I still have a day and a bit of work left 😭

A mid-week birthday is the worst because I'm at work and the computers are doing me harm. So I reckon I might leave a bit early since I stayed late yesterday 😌

we need a thing like they have in the US where you can hire a personal shopper to find the best price on healthcare.

Ugh I paid $50 to see the doctor, now they want a $135 gap for a scan. The fuck happened to healthcare in this country.

Went to the gym this morning. My back is much better, but today was all dorito stuff. Tomorrow I've got some squats and deadlifts and see how it feels. But now I need to get off my bum and prepare for bbq lunch in the park

today my back is fucked. everything is angry and inflamed. so I got down on the floor to do some exercises and very nearly couldn't get back up. I don't appreciate this end of my thirties.

Where did the trope of crystals as a power source come from? Like healing crystals, or Marvel's infinity stones. Is this a mythology spanning human history?

I saw a group of shrimp on the rock in my aquarium and I was like ‘huh, there's a lot of shrimp now’. Then I looked on the other side and there were a HEAP more. Counted about 30. They've been busy apparently.

I've hit a bug so heinous all I can do is walk away and unpack the dishwasher. It should be the simplest thing. And yet.

I'm working outside today because it's a nice day, and also it was raining earlier so I wanted to listen to the drops plopping down on the umbrella.

BlueSky doesn't automatically link links when you post via the API. Turns out you have to manually mark them up based on character index. Bit of an odd choice, but whatevs. https://docs.bsky.app/blog/create-post#mentions-and-links
