Harvest festival in Šalčininkai. Very busy this year, due to a concert with Eurovision starlets.

Even the US embassy had a stand for some reason. We scored a snickers bar there for having some quiz knowledge about thanksgiving traditions ;-)

Bought some honey, too. Prices have collapsed this year due to overproduction, we've seen as low as €2.70 per kg, although bought this one at a supportive €5. Good time to stock up!

Yup. For-profit healthcare is immoral.

I tolerated two years of the for-profit management, after my not-for-profit hospital was sold to them. I had worked there over a quarter of a century, and watching them shred and destroy all our pro-community efforts over those two years was intolerable.

They kept saying, "shareholder value", as though that had anything at all to do with the healthcare mission.

Healthcare has no business having 'shareholders'.

I'm starting my slow, cautious, move from Windows to Ubuntu.

First, a laptop I hardly use.

Documenting issues, before I start on my older desktop.

Issue # 1: Do not let cat play with flashing light on installation thumb drive, during installation.

While we’re rightly excoriating the new confirmation of the Vatican’s willing participation in the nazi genocides, don’t forget the US knew about it in the 30s and also did exactly fuck all to stop it.

Given your current salary/wage, which would you prefer:

1. 𝟰-𝗱𝗮𝘆 '𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱" 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀, with 32-hour weeks and the same workload you have now.

2. 𝟴-𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗱 𝘀𝗮𝗯𝗯𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝟱 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 (sabbatical must be taken in 8-consecutive weeks — in addition to your usual PTO — to do whatever you want, but ideally with some goal related to personal or prof'l development).

[Boosts greatly appreciated! I don't have a lot of followers but would love to get at least 100 votes.]

My wife is a nurse, one of the few to still mask constantly, and has this to say about her denial colleagues getting constant #Covid19 infections

'No one has returned to work after their 5th bought of Covid - not one, they are either disabled or looking for different work'

keming: (n) what happens to words when your font has poor kerning

entirely this. anyone who works with this tech on a daily basis knows it's pure hype and that this tech has zero hope of replacing most workers let alone humanity writ large. it's all talk intended to drive investment in "the next big thing" that web3 just was. https://social.treehouse.systems/@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes/111081194382126713

You're never too terminally ill to learn new stuff.

What happens when you tell an AI image generator to recreate the scene of Jesus flipping over tables.
I mean, it's 𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 correct. 😅

We grew a decent batch of carrots for a low-effort container garden.

I keep saying "next year we should get serious, have like 20 containers, automate the watering system, the light up here is so good."

Then we could sell bespoke carrots.

Has anyone tried Titanic, the new software for transferring files between your computer and your phone?

It is impressive, but I can't stop it syncing.

Humans, just hurry up with this shopping thing, I am not that good at waiting for ya. #psowerem #zpsem #cycling #rowerem

Pro tip: You can use just steal a bunch of jargon from any research field to make mages' lingo.

"Why, this is the personal glyph of the foul wizard, Hapax Legomenon! He must mean to ensconse himself at the top of the Tower of the Syllabary and use his distributive aspect to cast Reverse Boustrophedon on the whole town! We must stop him before he reaches unbounded deixis and we're all completely agglutinated!"
