Doing that thing where you need to change something massive in your life but that’s too scary so instead you think about chopping your hair short and dying it blonde.

Re-reading @mhairim.bsky.social Last Night cos I’m currently losing my best friend (not death, but to a toxic man) and it so well captures that feeling of someone you adore being suddenly gone.
Any book recs about friend loss welcome.

I’m not sure I’m convinced Elon Musk believes in anything he’s currently spewing. It’s just power for the sake of it, watching the influence his dangerous words have on the world. Insecure like a teenage bully, but with unlimited resources. A twisted social experiment.

Sorry to sound like a broken record here, but, with this whole "grooming gangs" bit going on, there are some additional important bits. Yes, majority of offenders are white. It's easy for likes of Farage et al to try and explain that away based on the demographic make up of the UK though. 1/
Reporting on grooming gangs tends to focus on minorities, however, as Home Office's own report showed, offenders are far more likely to be white, British. This isn't an immigration issue. Playing to racist tropes means majority of perpetrators are ignored. 1/ #r4today www.gov.uk/government/p...

So I’m on #pinterest browsing for ideas for a haircut tomorrow, as I always do the night before an appointment. 2 months ago I noticed a handful of #AI images. Now it’s like 80% of them. I hate it.

Got a notification that TTPD snow globes were up. Went to the website, nothing there. Refreshed over and over, still nothing. Eventually they came up as sold out. There are HUNDREDS of listings on eBay. This is gross behaviour and I hope all these people step on upturned plugs.

Finally deleted my Twitter/X accounts. Screenshot my favourite interactions and left. Sick of being pushed far-right posts every day, stuff I’d never interact with. I don’t mind seeing a balance of stuff but when the algo is so clearly not based on what I’m there for, it’s not worth it.

The number of people who are shocked and outraged to discover their favourite creatives don't support Trump is so confusing to me. People who spend their time absorbing and creating art, learning about the experience of others and finding empathy for them, don't tend towards fascism.

Elections have been turned into a game. Pretending they haven’t & staying above it is pointless. My feeds are filled with forlorn celebs but most of them didn’t reveal their vote until yesterday. Celeb Trump supporters aren’t quiet about it and it buoys voters to know ppl they value agree with them.

I just finished Thimbleweed Park on casual mode to get the achievement, and now I’m starting again on hard mode because I missed all the extra puzzles so much. Such a beautiful masterpice of a game.
