Going to attempt to sleep on my back tonight to see if that will help to unfuck my joints and muscles. I am a committed and long term side sleeper, so it’s going to be ‘fun’.

Barely anyone is going to see this, but if you’ve ever asked why X isn’t banned in the UK yet despite creating CSAM, it’s because the US government has enforced a worldwide policy of blackmail protecting the American tech oligarchy. It’s why TikTok can be banned but X cannot.
“Why can’t we have any regulations for US tech in Britain?”
Because the US trade rep has gone to every country including Britain and said if we regulate tech in a way that favours our people, industries and national interests, the US will bury us in tariffs and ruin our economy.

It’s a bit unfortunate that one of the local mental health organisations that runs a lot of the support groups round here is headed up by someone jointly responsible for my really poor mental health while I was in Sixth Form.

When I’m really struggling with the ol’brain, the house very quickly gets into disarray. So I think I might spend the rest of the morning tidying and cleaning to see if that helps to boost my mood. And if it doesn’t, I’ll at least have a tidier habitat as a consequence.

Big case of the Sunday Scaries and it’s only quarter past 10 in the morning. Back to work tomorrow for the first time since 23rd Dec, and I made the mistake of having a look at my inbox.

So be fair, I own everything in my house (though not the house outright).
I'm sad to have to reveal that the prophecy has not come true.

My brain is being a bit of a shit at the moment. Actually, that’s an understatement. It’s being an enormous shite and I’m about this close to asking the GP to refer me to a psychiatrist. Cos the current meds are doing eff all.

I’ve been out in the car, very gingerly in places. I’ve been to the dentist, picked up my prescription and done a semi-big shop at Tescos and Home Bargains. And now I’m going to get warm and comfy and hibernate for the rest of the week.

Just realised that the reason I am feeling so shit and my brain is being a bastard to me is because the seasonal depression has finally hit - months later than usual. I had thought I was going to get away with it this season. Oh well, I felt better for much longer than usual so that’s a win.

Might’ve had a little cry because the sitting room looks so bare and miserable now I’ve taken down the decorations. :(

It's quite incredible how this poor and inaccurate tool has been prioritised and integrated *so* effectively that I regularly have people tell me something they've 'looked up' and I have to say 'you're not just reading the AI overview are you' and they are.

I'm losing track of how many countries a man livid he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize has illegally bombed.
Iran. Venezuela. Nigeria. Afghanistan. Iraq. Libya. Pakistan. Somalia. Syria. Yemen.
Not to mention threatening to annex Greenland and Canada and invade Panama.

Agreed!
90% of my Facebook feed over the festive season was people doing AI pics of themselves either glamorously posing amidst candy canes (?) or just in a quite nice Christmassy room. All of them looked like absolute fucking shit and I wish they'd just posted real pics, it was weird and grim.

This afternoon I’ve got rid of a load of stuff for the charity shop, recycled glass and soft plastic, and done an emergency ‘just in case there’s heavy snow’ shop. Oh, and three loads of washing. And I might tackle the spare room next (aka ‘room of doom’). Starting the year off productively.
