    Thank god… I’ve finally passed my kidney stone of a project. It’s not totally done but all of the hard bits are done. Just writing things up and sending it out now.

    Literally lost 3-4kg in stress and missed meals / sleep. But I think we have something that might be worth it. Having a very career defining kind of year.

    What’d I miss??

    Used to think it’s cringey when people post about their partner, now that I have one, i’ve become that cringey person. I want everyone to know how lovely my partner is. How smart, kind, thoughtful and loving he is. Everyday I wonder what the hell did i do to land this guy? Just the sweetest guy ever and he deserves all the love in the world. And i just wanna shower him with so much love and happiness. If you’re reading this I love u so much, don’t cry at work 😘

    I can’t believe my favourite fountain pen shop (in SS2) is more on the ball than our journos and news portal. They now have a fedi account: @[email protected]

    Hahahahahhaha imagine being in a job that’s supposed to be on the pulse of society and you’re slower than a shop selling a pretty old-fashioned tool.

    Got a graduation event next month. Unlike previous batches, we have to pay for the clothes (shirt, tie, slacks) ourselves because there’s no allocation. Have to buy it from a distributor for uniformity.

      Uni graduation was the worst graduation for me. Had to pay a shit ton and the experience was meh. I was even planning to skip mine entirely because ceremonies like these are meaningless to me(just a personal thing) but my peers asked me to join.

      Business idea : buy then rent to juniors.

      For bonus markah, can buy used ones off your batch mates (preferably different sizes) then rent them out

              yep, everything so far sounds like they frizzed you all up. literally no reputable uni would pull this kind of shit.

              • shirt, tie, slacks have 0% bearing. under the robes it’s barely visible.
              • if they control/own the distributor they stand to get a lot of money by this dick move.
              • unis rent out robes and lapels. those never change because unis want to save money too.
              • also each lapel represents a faculty so they’ll never change year after year.

    i just realized this week in the fediverse has been about name change after name change:

    1. calckey -> firefish, so lots of instances that had calckey in domain name changed their names

    2. firefish has a trademark issue, so probably some of those instances that changed names to firefish are doing so again, firefish software itself gets a fork called iceshrimp

    3. .ml gov decides to take back their country code, so any fediverse instance there will have to change name, one of the biggest would be lemmy.ml (has anyone heard what’s the latest on this one?)

      For the lemmy.ml one, no update to this day, and i think the admin also give no comment on that issue as well. Feels like they will keep on trucking until the government decide to take action.

        I’m scratching my head with lemmy.ml. I’ve seen their users posting in lemmy.world like normal, and I myself posted onto their communities from my .world account and gotten upvotes. How is this possible?

        Ignore this comment. lemmy.ml is still up somehow.
