    Grumpily musing on how easy it would be to translate transphobic talking points into anti organ transplant (or anti surgery generally) crankery. Probably not a great way to start my day

    Ok, so all I&amp;#39;m doing today is playing around with using a hemming foot to hem rags, but it&amp;#39;s something #petrasews

    I, a fool, tried to download a single small file from gitlab dot com using wget and now I am rate limited. What has *happened* to the web?

    I&#39;m a fairly well balanced person, for the circumstances, but every now and again I read something on my phone about the state of trans rights or healthcare in the UK and go a little bit insane https://www.wearequeeraf.com/nhs-wales-apologises-for-withdrawal-of-trans-healthcare-admits-urgent-review-still-hasnt-begun/

    I have actually read a yudwhatsit book - though I never properly went down that hole, thanks in no small part to early 2010s @davidgerard@circumstances.run - and now I&#39;m scared to learn how it fits into the present nonsense

    Phone apps with swipe gestures make me feel a million years old. I can handle bringing up a side menu or whatever, because that makes some level of spatial sense, but on a list of episodes I&#39;m never going to remember what favourites and what downloads and what deletes - especially since it&#39;s mostly on accident while trying to do something else

    INZ vote done. Wasn&#39;t entirely sure how best to rank the non-terrible candidates, kind of fell back on my &#39;give them a little walking-around vote&#39; strat where I rank people I suspect might not get as many votes higher than the obvious candidates. Honestly they mostly seem good people? Certainly, nobody sends me the good goss

    Not clear what the composition of this fabric I bought from Pete&#39;s Emporium on a whim - I&#39;m assuming it&#39;s 100% polyester until proven otherwise - but I&#39;m back on my bullshit #petrasews #wheresmyemporium
