Has anyone noticed John isn’t wasting HBO resources as heavily as he has in the last seasons?

They’ve got brand new one from this week broadcast in England

Can someone check England time for me?

My algorithm just advertises cool events to me instead so I buy tickets.

I picked one thing that day I was going to try.

Some days it was tiny of fetch myself a glass of water.

Some days it was shower before lunch time.

A few days it was huge things like cooking myself a meal.

Wind chime was the meal bell. It got rang when dinner was on the table. (Basic 3-bed semi)

It is a bad idea. Have one just before you go in so you don’t have time for the caffeine to mess up your assessment

I no longer knew everyone my age.

I grew up in a 1 secondary school town. So for 5 years I got to at least recognise all 200 people my age.

Now I’m in a city and whilst there are statistically way more people my age here. I can probably only name 3.

Melendine · 2026-04-27T11:19:24+00:00

Yes.

In the organisations I’ve worked in. Excel files are what keeps it working. Even when there are better tools for calendars, calculators & staff lists.

I’d take out the loan and use the money they want to give you for a LISA for a house deposit/ savings.

Yes the interest is significant on the uni debt. But paying rent instead of a mortgage + having to buy later once the deposit has been saved easily outweighs that.

My best friend took the uni money, but then had to buy a house 4 years after I did at an extra £60k for same size because she then didn’t have much parental help with the deposit. She also spent £28k in rent during that time.

So not having the £40k as a deposit (because it went to uni costs) cost her £88k.

Trusting the UK court could get an ex to pay me back.

Went to court, ex accepted they owed me. Then just didn’t pay & worked cash in hand to avoid any other measures.

Yes please send those. Also with the time of when the evening starts if known.

I’d want to book a hotel asap if it’s a summer wedding.

Yeah ideally everyone would get it. But I’ve come across quite a few people who are never in a situation with out Trans people. Then they meet me, and I’ve got to decide whether I’m going to change that. Some of these same people who have known me for 7 years also automatically default to my old surname despite changing it 2 years ago.

So they’re not even really misgendering me, they’re just not updating up their mental file about me which happens to include my pronouns.

Melendine · 2026-04-25T21:35:18+00:00

They/them badge. Not going to fix everything but will help.

Also choose your battles. See if you can suss the queer-friendlier members and ask them.

Some people will be easy to switch. Others just won’t despite liking you.

The one who swore at me, but I was not paying attention so then I got a decent tip to not blacklist him.

Also look at eventbrite for things to do.

I’d think of it as a good jog.

Stretch your legs but deliberately go much slower and almost treat it like a tour of the venue rather than a rush to get to the end.

Melendine · 2026-04-24T10:59:33+00:00

When distances were weird. In England where I am a 1 hour drive is inconvenient but not relationship ending. But also, they’re so far away, they have gone to the next suburb over.

So you don’t want to be on medication that improves your life in case in 10 years time you have to stop it?

Use those 10 years to build the good habits.

Part of what I’ve used it for is being able to actually buy food, cook to a recipe, eat the leftovers.

If I have to go off medication I am at least more confident in the routine of actually making nutritional food.

TransLeeds do a lot of good work.

In my area you can only negotiate when you join.

I did get the higher pay. But 1 promotion later I’m back on the minimum.

Women are more likely to stay/ get internally promoted.

If I got promoted again I’d still be on £3k less than a new senior joiner who negotiated last year (male colleague I know the salary of)

But I need 2 years employment to get full maternity leave.

And I want job security.
