Hello and welcome! You have for some reason landed on my diary blog. I hope you get a giggle or a fleeting thought out of something in here. There's n...
Hi folks, sorry for the delay in new posts. We're dealing with a painful decision of having to euthanize our dear cat Karma. We're lucky as she has been doing very well so far considering her health situation and advanced age. She has, however, crossed a threshold in the past couple of weeks and we have scheduled a goodbye for her today. I'll get back to posting again when I feel like it, or need…
Consent is not just for sexual encounters Usually when people talk about consent, it's in the context of "Could you have the morsel of decency to ask your potential-sexual-act-partner if they're fine with that kind of act?" but I have realized it expands WAAAY beyond that into almost everything in life. Sidenote: people who mock this concept of making sure your partner-in-the-sack is willing to…
Posting style and topic ideas The thought of what I actually want this blog to be never really occurred to me, I just kind of started putting black on white about whatever. Knowing myself, that's probably what's gonna be going on in the future as well.

Then they get into my shit using their shit as an excuse, which forces me into a shitty adversary relationshit…
On the state of the internet When I see not-so-tech-minded people using their (usually mobile) devices without an adblock, on default settings, I'm violently blown out of my little carefully curated bubble where I've blissfully forgotten that ads exist. The amount of malware installing, tracking ads on EVERY site and app is worse than it used to be on adult websites or russian cracked video game…
Yeah so even though I love my own voice (err, writing?) and I'm basically using this as a whiny diary / free alternative to therapy / void to scream into / justifying my bullshit to myself / list goes on, believe it or not, I do like dialogue with people sometimes, especially if they agree with me and very clearly imply how I am smart and cool but don't actually say it out loud as I am not…
Case 1 - Ignoring basics About a year-and-a-half ago I did a tiny, seemingly insignificant, error: I was too lazy to go pick up a proper ladder for installing a lamp in our kitchen. Instead, I climbed on the table, and when getting off after a job well done, I stepped down on a chair and then tried to exit the chair via the backrest. This did not work, and instead I had a violent fall, head first…
