  • At least at my work there was pretty genuinely no workaround. The service desk group chat was mostly just sharing memes and making jokes about it cause wtf else you gonna do.

    As a general rule though, if it’s something legitimately out of your control, don’t stress. The bosses don’t gaf about you, so you have to gaf about you.


  • This is marginally related but proton has a feature that tells when you when an email is still being retried, and when it gives up.

    That email is called something like delayed mail (still being retried), and for a long time, my dumbass thought it was some feature that was being retired and I was like wtf why have they taken months to retire this feature.

    Anyway, proton retries for 48 hrs as well.


  • I listened to a fantastic audiobook this week, I’m one book away from reaching my goal of 50 this year!! I hadn’t seriously taken up reading since high school so before this it was maybe like 2 books a year if lucky. I joined a book club and made new friends. That’s been great.

    I’ve also been practicing video editing for the group I organize with so that we can up our social media game. That’s been a huge learning curve but very fun.





  • Idk, reading through that it felt like the french dude probably had an inkling but was in denial about it. He had slept with men up until that point and was probably just glad he found someone who, at least from the outside, fit the gender he thought/was told he should be attracted to.

    Either that or the dude was just really, really clueless about female genitalia (which, also not impossible if he had only been with men prior). Men today will still say women only have two holes down there so really that not that shocking in a time when sex ed was probably even worse than it is now.

    Editing to add that this triggered a memory of reading a story about a hetero couple who had explicitly only had sex in the woman’s urethra for like 30 years or something??? People are fuckin whack man idk.

    Editimg again because I was curious. It was 52 years and I cannot believe I remembered a random post from fucking r/wtf from 14 years ago. Anyway, in my search I found that apparently urethral coitus is a (super rare) thing and usually because of a medical condition so I apologize for calling those people weird.
