It's a good cis opinion.
PSA, heat mitigation
I've found wrapping an ice pack in cloth and tucking it into my clothes very effective at keeping me from overheating. Reusable flat chemical icepacks fit best and last the longest, but even a frozen water bottle works. Into a bra, against the stomach, and in the small of the back are all good spots. Avoid skin damage by always wrapping it in cloth and relocating the ice pack when it becomes uncomfortable.
I'm not a huge fan of the Guardian but they've got an interesting profile on the leader of the Unite union, Sharon Graham https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/jun/17/profiteering-bosses-workers-inflation-unite-sharon-graham-labour

Heck, let's do a poll for this. Since I'm pretty curious how my anecdotal experience talking to people translates to broader trends.
Do you, or have you picked mushrooms on your own? And where do you live?
(only four options allowed per poll, so if you're not in the US, give me an indication in a comment where you live. I imagine this might vary wildly over the world)
Apparently Unite (the union) are holding a #CostOfLivingCrisis rally in London on 18 June
Today I made this bike rack, this cous cous salmon arugula salad, and celebrated 33 years without a drink or drug. #diy

Twitter Thread: Dall-e has a secret language.
If you ask it to draw subtitles, it shows mostly gibberish.
But if you feed that gibberish back into it, then you get a real thing.
Like "Whales talking about food" gives a speech-bubble with "ahakes" in it, and if you ask it to draw that then you get shrimp and fish and stuff.
Fascinating.
Curiosity poll regarding social media approach.
Please boost because we're really curious about the experience-approach for as many users as possible.
We have excluded two options here and will explain why:
Twitter exclusively: probably not gonna see this poll if you don't use Fediverse at all
Spiderman: We assume everyone would add Spiderman to their options because of how polls work.
money (-), help needed
Most of the money of my partner's new job has been going to paying late bills and council tax and stuff so we've been incredibly strained the past few months, it should hopefully level out finally next month.
I've been working as much as my mh lets me, which unfortunately isn't enough. Right now my bank account is nearing zero again and I'm not gonna be able to meet my rent payment tomorrow. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I like nature and computers. I'm Admin of Kith.Kitchen and Software Engineer for the British Film Institute.
Currently living in Leeds. I'm learning about anarchism. I try to get my hands dirty.
