Some kind of electrical issue near Clifton Hill is affecting the Hurstbridge and Mernda lines. They're recommending the 86 tram up to somewhere where one can hop on a bus. Naturally, like the good little contrarian I am, I'm taking a train to Box Hill and seeing if I can bus it from there instead.

“These bigots really want to look at your daughters’ genitals” needs to keep being repeated loudly to the ears of anyone on the fence about this. Leave these kids the fuck alone.

I don't think people are ready for this kind of joke yet.

Before reflux I could eat supper*. Now I'd kill to be able to do that again. *Supper in Australia generally means a late night snack well after dinner. Usually around 10-ish. "Dinner" in Australia generally means the evening meal. Usually around 6-7-ish.

Gold Coast Suns would have a better footy jumper if they replaced the ridiculous corporate logo on their front with a stylised GCFC.

I follow too many of you. I might have to start building a feed. Lord only knows what that involves.

Linux Mint's Web Apps manager is so good that I'm still surprised that terrible afterthought Linux app functionality is still even attempted.

there's clearly no point in scolding most people for their indifference to anti-trans bigotry. the refusal to leave Harry Potter behind, the hemming and hawing about the NYT's puzzles. people won't even put down their toys for us. I cannot express the white-hot frustration boiling in my stomach.

A button that marks posts as not being AI slop would probably be far more useful.
