    Only 2 3 wake ups so far. Not bad.

    That reminds me. There’s several Simon’s at work. I’m very unaccustomed to having the same name as other people.

    Ive only ever met 1 other person with my real name.

    Feels odd to call someone else by my name.

    Had some absolutely funky dreams last night. Vivid, memorable and absolutely bonkers.

    Last time I drink sugar free lemonade before bed time.

    Thanks for the birthday wishes yesterday everyone. It feels like I got a bigger response here from people I haven’t met in person compared to what I ever got from people I know on Facebook

    Aaaand Trump goes back on the tariffs, and nobody is surprised because the country is run by toddlers basically. Stock markets are back up. Wonder which of his friends made a pretty penny by buying during the low and selling for an overnight 5-9% profit

      I’m waiting for the announcement of 1 millionth percent tariff on China, and for MAGA voters to keep insisting Trump knows exactly what he’s doing and America is now great again. I want to laugh, but am so sad for the Americans who didn’t want this. Another day in the American clown show.

        there was a notice on my payment page from aliexpress about tariffs.

        Chinese people expect many Americans to direct their anger at them and they are right, they just don’t understand that trump lied and lied and lied

      It’s exhausting to be honest, it’s generating so much news and tension over several industries leaving them with a bleak future ahead.

      Been seeing talk of insider trading. Think that’s got any truth to it?

      I’m surprised they even happened. I thought they’d be the sorry of things he talks about forever and never actually does. But I guess this is like the Muslim ban; do it, revoke it, blame other people, and talk about it without ever implementing it again

        Almost feels like he did it purely to be able to boast to the American public that he (allegedly) had world leaders kissing his ass at a recent dinner due to these tariffs.

        In other words - it’s all just a fucking show leading up to an ever more disgusting version of politics from which there feels like there is no going back…

    I’ve been falling asleep to hour+ long videos on space, by Astrum Extra, so I don’t know why I had a nightmare about

    tw blood

    Living alone and finding blood everywhere in my house, running to the neighbours for help, then waking up to find blood everywhere in my house, running to the neighbours for help, then waking up to find blood everywhere in my house, then running to the neighbours for help… And so on. It was a good 15-20 loops before I woke up at 3am.

    The cat came and cuddled me so I fell back asleep and was fine. I’m not upset, just tripped out lol.

    Second ADHD assessment appointment for my partner today, so another trip across the city. Gonna treat myself with a cafe coffee, because it’s my birthday 😂

    My beautiful friend came over yesterday, and made a delicious soup, healing for the mind, body, and soul. I feel so happy to have spent the day with them. They got to meet Mickey, we took a walk, it was great! They gave me their guitar, so I’ve been practicing last night - gonna practice more this afternoon when I return. I do wish I had slightly longer, thinner fingers so I stop flattening the other strings when practicing chords, but I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it with practice.

    Power is out, right before I could make breakfast.

    Hopefully it’ll come back sooner rather than later I’m all prepared for it!

    I have van. Now I’m waiting for an assessment of whether the reversing camera can be installed without a new head unit 🤞

    It is nice sitting up high and being able to see further, but it will take a while to get used to primarily using the side mirrors. I have so far managed to avoid turning on the windscreen wipers instead of the blinkers.

      if your existing headunit doesnt have carplay/android auto just replace the headunit anyway. its a game changer!

      Seconding getting the head unit upgraded to one that has carplay/android auto (if it doesn’t already) - it makes SO much difference. Got it done on my car and while it was a strain on the wallet in one hit, it has paid off in scads from all the times it has made navigation etc so much better (and safer) than a mounted phone.

        It will be having android auto - it has some connection already, but it might just be to play music. I have a TomTom gps unit that I actually really like for navigation, both because it keeps the maps downloaded and doesn’t need internet connection and because the dashboard or windscreen mount position is better to look at than in the centre console.

        Line maintenance apparently.

        Been off since about 8:30am.

        Loaded some movies on an iPad and have podcasts downloaded on my phone for some background noise.

        Just about to go play on my Switch to pass the time.
