I was dreaming heavily when the weather alert radio woke me up…
To tell me that there was a severe thunderstorm watch

A watch.

Just a watch.

I coulda been sleeeeeeeping!

I don't like #AI being crammed into every app, but that will stop as it's an added cost.

I do use it though, I run my own. I know there's a very wide range of uses for it and can appreciate the differences between the types and implementations...

Karens.. not so much.

I’m one of the true blue die hard no-search-function whingers of mastodon.

Is there anything finer than a set of #GPG-related Jira tickets first thing slightly before the coffee has had a chance to work?

Ngh, with ios 18 I'm getting crashes and battery drain, making the bloody phone useless. Tried everything I can find online. Battery didn't need "servicing" before 18. Phooey #whinging

I'm reading a student paper where the expression 'at the behest of' is used repeatedly to mean 'at the expense of', and it's getting on my nerves.

It has been a long time since I've used the phrase "bone tired" and really felt it...

... but I am feeling it. I know I will enjoy the house when this is all done, but right now, so tired and just want it done.

Why on earth is it so hard to find a decently made pair of black sunglasses with circular lenses? Not round, CIRCULAR.

@alexwild I'm definitely going to follow the #whinging tag.

Seems like fewer people are hashtagging now, which is a shame because that’s how I find y’all’s posts.

I don't wanna work tonight.

Who remembers the minor Gods of Queenstown tourism whinging about lockdown and screaming for our borders to reopen? Yep... them.

Last week QT hospo was calling for the government to provide accomodation for their workers.

This time it's Blair Impey, CEO of the Republic Hospitality Group which operates nine establishments in QT. He blames our PM for the chef shortgage. (Doh!)

The actual problem is AirBnB + Covid.

I do a lot of #whinging here (and TBH IRL as well) but I think it's important to feel and express #gratitude and #joy, so...
Yesterday, I replaced the broken thermostat for the electric baseboard heater in my bathroom. I put off doing it for two winters because the heat was sort-of working and because electric heat was pricier than the gas heat we have in most of the house. 1/4

My recipe testers are getting miffed with me. I'm in the fatigued stage of postC19 (cleaned a bathroom yday and then needed a 2hr nap afterwards). I've been craving cookies and want to bake some. My testers tell me NO: I'm to rest and I should just buy cookies. I did, today. I can only taste the preservatives. They taste like sadness.

I don't like this place. 😔
I want to interact with y'all so badly but I can't even find you.
It's all RTs of folks I don't follows stuff (I understand why but I want to see y'all), and my notifs are the same thing twenty times bc they don't group likes. 😫 #whinging

I've been on tumblr a long time. Since May 2011. I've seen, and posted, some great stuff there. And honestly, a lot of crap as well.

This morning, out of the first 25 items in my tumblr feed, 9 were ads or algorithm prompts (follow this account! check out this trending tag!) When more than 1/3 of your content is unwanted garbage, how is your platform sustainable?

Tumblr is one of the last social sites I still use, but it may be time to leave.
