Would you believe an idiot though?

When it becomes really advanced (we could even do it now, actually), we replace all upper management jobs and leaving human work to human workers, e.g. customer service, healthcare, arts and culture etc.

As long as they’re getting paid well to do a job they want to do and have breaks, I don’t see the problem. It’s a job and in this capitalist world, bills have to be paid somehow. Pretty low effort way to earn some money.

So I just found out my local Maribyrnong councillor has died of unknown causes in her home. This is quite shocking.

It was meant to be pedalphile, as in bicycle pedals, but I obviously mispelled it and I’ve chosen to stick with the name to constantly shame myself.

It was either that or spokesperson and I didn’t think that was clever enough. Ironically, I’ve ended up looking very stupid and I’m fine with that.

I’m having a pretty good day today. I hope everyone here has at least one moment of joy today.

Blue ringed octopus. Tiny but deadly.

Set up automatic bank transfers to chop your income into % parts: 5% play money, 20% savings, bills etc. do what works for you. Get rid of unnecessary subscriptions.

• We rule you and take your money
• We preach to you and take your money
• We fight you and take your money/resources

Or it could be the rulling class takes the biggest cut, clergy the next biggest etc. with workers at the bottom supporting the entire system but receiving the least.

When people find themselves in stress, they will always vote conservative to ensure their own survival. Right now, many young people can’t afford housing, they have to spend more time working than living. This is not surprising.

Happy birthday. I turned 40 this week too. Yay us.

I want complete control of my technology after I buy it. I don’t want my phone to assume things that I like based on my input. If something goes wrong, I want it to be my fault because I enabled the wrong setting. I also want physical buttons. I miss those so much.

I’d love to get prints from the artist to hang on my wall.

Two tomato plants far exceeded what we needed. We sacrificed the remainder to the possums and birds.
