Simulacra of a Girl @gewt@san-junipero.gimme-sympathy.org

things i have been physically injured today by: rackmounted router in a pile of rackmount gear to be sorted

i need to add an extra hour in the middle of my workday for a nap as well as a lunch

favourite win11 feature: when my wallpaper crashes

i’m starting to burn out hard due to a system i’m maintaining consuming all my time and lots of manual intervention. this year’s project will be making that easier

the vaguely-threatening mental health care service work uses is asking me to “improve my emotional immunity”

$116 in meds to fill. oof.

i feel like nobody else is as nervous about the stresses in my life that are shared

nobody else seems as panicked about running out of money, or changes at work, or impending chaos elsewhere

after having used modern machines with SSDs for so long i forgot how slow spinning rust on modern machines can be

obviously older machines are still fine with even slower drives :D

i own too many terminals in need of repair

im on the internet

so far today i have had to manually stop staging twice due to broken builds. this year i am going to make a very specific host group in ansible so i can make this one command

also i successfully woke up early today

only problem is i am _extremely_ tired as a reasult
