Terry Pratchett held that things are not simply Right and Wrong. Rather, there is Right, Wrong and Bloody Stupid, and it is important not to get tangled up in Bloody Stupid as it just wastes your time. Anyway I'm blocking a lot.

1810s - Luddites repressed with huge wave of militarised state violence. 1840s - Outrage across nation as thousands of children are maimed or killed every year in mines and mills. Everyone - "God, those Luddites were stupid!"

The Luddites' actual argument was that automated looms meant expensive, skilled workers were being replaced with literal children, who were then getting maimed and killed, and maybe this is bad.

"Fun" new experience - got put on some short course meds that knocked out a lot of the inflammation in my joints - yay! Except now I think i can feel some bone on bone in my hips & I uh. Hate it.

Today is solar panel install day for the house!!! I am excited but also glad I didn't expect to get a ton of work done bc lol the construction noise is, as expected, distracting. We gave the install crew a bunch of electrolyte things to add to their water bc ain't nobody getting heat stroke today

I'm getting better at certain chords on the guitar, but for the life of me I can't figure out a structured way to practice. Musician pals, any recommendations on resources for that/tips you may have? I know some chords & generally how to play but im stuck on how to practice lol.

Fix your hearts or die. You know how many of us joke that Pride month should be followed by Wrath? This year I feel a deep, burning fury towards all who use transgender lives as political propaganda. We are human beings. You cannot erase us. Happy Pride. Trans liberation at any cost. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

A digital illustration showing a knight in full armour. They are riding on a black steed which is mostly out of frame. The frame in question is green and shows a chain going around as a decorative element. That chain is broken by the knight's raised sword. From the knight's chest bursts a roaring flame in the colours of the trans pride flag.
