I'm going in for a surgery this week, and I'll be on intermittent leave for the two weeks after. Unfortunately, CA Short-term Disability Insurance doesn't pay as well as my own paycheck, so that means that my income will be reduced over the next couple of weeks.

God I'm so sick of how "Activist" is used to un-person trans people.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

My cat is definitely happy with how much time that I've spent in bed the past few days.

I'm so grateful to my leads for telling me that I should go for continuous leave vs. intermittent. My energy levels are back to normal, but my endurance is still fragile. Trying to work like that would have been a disaster.

I decided to pick Horizon: Zero Dawn back up after seeing @trulyaliem.bsky.social posting about it, since I. can play it in bed.

God, I forgot how pretty it is.

Also, the gyro aim from the remaster really helps me out.

You can tell that I'm a millennial because of how much I loved Patrick Stump's solo in Hear Our Hope in Hazbin Hotel's season finale. 😄

My recovery is going well so far. Minimal pain, almost back to full mobility. Haven't needed the opioids at all even!

My endurance is a bit low still, though.

Apologies for sharing misinformation.
Turns out this was all much ado about nothing and Google isn’t using your Gmail to train AI and if wanna turn all that stuff back on you can get your spam filters back
Looks like the article has been updated to suggest maybe they misread the policy.

I see people complaining that this also disabled their spam filters, though I still see new messages showing up in spam so it's still working fine for me after disabling things.

I photoshopped a Nazgul, and it spiralled out of control from there.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

i'm tapping the sign because a lot of people just seem to forget that "nsfw" doesn't just mean porn. it means "not safe for work." would i get sent to HR for having this on my computer monitor? yes? then it's not safe for work. for the love of everything that is holy, stop erasing the meaning.
Look, I get it.
Fuck the system.
But please for the love of god label your shit if its nsfw.
If someone is naked, it's nsfw.
It means: Not Safe For Work.
This isn't a euphemism.
It's literal.
If I open blue at work for a cheeky scroll to see how moots r doing, I shouldn't have to watch my 6.
Thanks.
