absolute festering boil of a country

Like, how soon are we after the fucking "facesitting ban", and they're on "supporting yourself with cam work is Bad Actually"?

This is aimed very pointedly at *all the trans/disabled people supporting themselves with cam work* ISTFG, and you fucking know it's going to continue but in more precarious conditions 'cause exploitive types know they can get away with more *because the actors can't go make a fuss without being arrested for being on cam*

Anyway, sex work is work, and criminalisation only puts people in more danger in worse working conditions and I really wish more lefty sorts would pull their head out of their [redacted, illegal as of 6 Nov] and realise this rather than wringing their hands and going "ewww, icky!"

and, with hilarious timing, the music that clementine picks to play while I hunt for my boot polish:

anyway, I found my boot polishing brushes, now to figure out what the hell I did with the boot polish

we's all havin' a wee sippy tonight, it appears

For some reason I have rattling around in my head an interaction from a few months ago.

Someone posted a comic panel (or similar) where a frustrated fuzzy person in a housekeeper's uniform was grumpily complaining that "not every furry works in IT or tech, you know!" (or words to that effect)

And someone else in the chat exclaimed "who's even *saying* that, tho? I think they're making up a person to be mad at"

... I guess that stereotype is dying, huh?

💭 Having a very intense merging RP with a friend, and somehow .... sharing their allergies afterwards?

*extremely tired and run-down skunk noises*

Still stylish tho.

Okay, rain wasn't that bad, label got fixed easily enough and the postal worker was very apologetic (these things happen tho!)

Now I'm just battling my way back home

and the rain has just arrived.

.....aaaaaaaaaand I just realised they fucked up the postcode on the parcel when they made the label. Goddamnit. That means I gotta head back out.

I survived a trip to the post office and back

Don't worry, I dressed for the weather

Bonus, the ECU is part of the housing that carries the blower motor, right?

Three of the wires you have to de-pin from the plug that connects the ECU to the rest of the heater *are for the motor that's right next to th ECU*

What the fuck Eberspächer, why do I need to *depin almost the entire 14 pin plug* to disconnect the sensors from the ECU, when I've already unplugged said 14 pin plug?

It's not even 9.15am, and I am already splattered with diesel and antifreeze

...so how's *your* Tuesday going?

Hm. Yeah, I think the warranty *may* have expired on this.
