job search, food mention 

I updated my resume.... it's much better now.

Biggest things:
* Aesthetically it looks like a lolly instead of like a melon salad.
* No longer mentions me being nonbinary, but still explicitly says that the workplace must be LGBT+ friendly
* I doubled the font size, which meant I had to cut out a heckload of words and just focus on the essential stuff

what other scripting languages are small, start quickly, and are nice for CGI scripts

weight, eating disorder, dieting, fatphobia, psa 

stop. talking. about. weight. and weight loss. all the time.
I'm serious. stop. every time you say shit like "i shouldn't eat that" or "i need to lose weight" or talk about your diet and weight loss efforts, you're shitting on the health and existence of fat people, people with eating disorders, people with weight or dieting issues. you're saying you value thin-ness over your bodies need for food. tbc

I think I'm going to try and replace a bunch of my microblogging time with macroblogging – lengthier posts, with space to actually go on tangents.

Also I want to work on that forum software I was designing again...

Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Web of Fear] 

The Web of Fear is only missing one episode.

And it just happens to be the first episode to feature Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart (later Brigadier), one of the most beloved characters from the classic series.

Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Web of Fear] 

The cliffhanger at the end of episode 1 could have been better, if they just cut the episode 3 seconds earlier:

The doctor is nearing some explosives, when someone presses the button to detonate.
They could have cut here, but they didn't – they cut after the explosives fail to go off properly and the Doctor is mearly knocked aside.

Classic Doctor Who :: [Season 5 → The Web of Fear] 

They brought the yeti back for this story, which at first I was dubious about, but I'm liking it so far.

It's set in the London Underground, after the yeti menace has forced london to be evacutated. I love apocalyptic stuff that's centred around a train network – Metro 2033, Ghost Lines...

discord, affection stuff 

update: I failed to resist, and now I've made a discord server for snuggling and softing.

If you like snuggling me, and feel like joining a server where people snuggle me and each other, then DM me!

linguistics, scottish gaelic orthography 

it's fun that /an ʃun̴̪əx s̪kʲanəx s na ʃɔːtʲ/ is easier for me to read than "an sionnach sgianach 's na seoid"

I believe it's pronounced /an ʃun̴̪əx s̪kʲianəx s na ʃɔːtʲ/

linguistics, scottish gaelic orthography 

*sees a show called "An sionnach sgianach 's na Seoid"*
"I wonder how that's pronounced, I'll go look up scottish gaelic orthography."

I had forgotten, however, that sounds in gaelic languages go under really complicated processes, and letters can represent "broad" and "slender" sounds, which might also be different before front vowels than they are before back vowels. So disentangling this will take awhile...
