I wasn't sure what the final straw would be for me regarding tilling the fields for big tech, but microsoft successfully getting planning permission for building a data centre in my home city definitely contributes. Currently looking out for a refurbished thinkpad to finally have a go at Linux!! Slooooowly but surely chipping away at finding alternatives to meta/google/microsoft everything and the effect is immediate... I am feeling a little bit more in control of Something

At the office today.

Tried to escape my ennui by getting a meal deal... my journey: 1) assumed an international student needed my help bc she very politely flagged me down and showed me her phone, only to find she wanted to tell me about the one true God the Mother (the only) on a PowerPoint she'd loaded up. 2) stampeded by a 7ft man being chased out of Boots by a security guard who was calling him a dick head, but did not pursue him further.... 3) following lunch, battling my purpose on this earth and lamenting my mortal body, i needed to chipperly interview coworkers on camera for a video aiming to celebrate the past year......

would anybody actually like a bite of my liver or am I splayed open on this rock for no reason

i think being proud of where you come from is one of those things that becomes fun the more specific you get. like "proud to be english" bad rancid vibes. makes you sound like the kind of person who rants about immigrants. "proud to be from yorkshire" better vibes. i cannot deny the yorkshire cultural heritage. "proud to be from pocklington" absolutely fucking hilarious please never let anybody kill your pocklington pride.

i love the USA: weird vibes. dont trust that.

i love muskegon michigan: you are experiencing a kind of personal joy that i can and will not take from you

had a wobble about my security at work, my body, the great betrayal, etc. had a hot shower and scrubbed myself within an inch of my life, acid-bathed my face, furiously moisturised, wandered downstairs in my dressing gown feeling raw and sad and frustrated with myself - and my brain filled the gap, saying 'all i see is the smart and beautiful daughter that i raised and love very dearly' in my dad's voice, and i'd just passed his ashes on the bookshelf and god... i miss him so much and i really need him right now

husband has been peppering in a few jokes about my history of writing saucy fanfiction (ha, ha!) with a suspicious timeliness that correlates directly with me currently writing saucy fanfiction... so I guess i must nuke my laptop and start a new life on the road
