😢 Bad news. My year of free credit monitoring has expired.
😃 Good news! I've just received *another* free year! Hurrah!
😭 Bad news. Because someone else has suffered a data breach.

I'm basically being held together by AFI and Murderbot at this point.

'Do you know what you get with your USS pension?'

Ah yes, my USS pension that's projected to give me an annual income of £6.64 or a one-off lump sum of £19.92, because I literally contributed for a semester of very part-time teaching in 2014. And was in a data breach.

Nej hörni, "Vi kommer i fred" är inte en bra översättning av "We come in peace". Det betyder "Vi får orgasm ostörda".

@SitaDulip I'm just going by the date on my pension statement, which could change for the worse as time goes on and governments get worse 🫠

Hooray, my CD has been dispatched!

Everything else remains stupid, however.

By the way, this is the image that comes into my head when you all discuss Arduino: https://pokemondb.net/pokedex/audino

The Pokemon Audino - kind of an upright beige goat/sheep thing that looks like its wearing a custard-pink cardigan

Gavin has had it up to here... I hear 🤔

Screenshot of an email with the subject “Automatic Reply: OOO.” The sender, Gavin Fernand, writes humorously that he is out of the office enjoying his life, hopes the workplace burns down in his absence, and says that unless he finds a giant pile of money, he’ll return on 9/16 to deal with “whatever bullshit” the email is about.

Despite how it might have looked, Linus (Thuringia, Germany) definitely meant to fall off the kitchen table. He just wanted a break from being so graceful all the time.

Wish my CD would come, even though I have paid for it and will just be listening to music from my phone's storage instead, it still doesn't feel right to stream the same album on Apple Music this many times.
