Not a good day today.

Not exactly bad as I did do a chore & I did finally get some shelves moved upstairs & in the position I need them.
Annoyed looking into my phone & internet provider options got shunted as that's pretty important & a couple of other tasks that I'd hope to finally make a start on after months of not doing it.

All because I woke up, rolled over, fell asleep again & then woke up with less time & dice than I needed.
Why I've been a bit absent from here today.

Hope I have the dice & spoons & time to deal with tomorrow as with extra tasks added on top of the usual things I deal with on Fridays it's going to be a proper 'mare.

Right now I literally have to do max 1-2 adulting things per day. Why is that still so hard?

1 I have a folder on my desktop "Temporary Pictures". It has photo I've edited or put aside to use for something later. It's a eclectic mixture. So, one a day, in the order they are in the folder #TemporaryPictures.

Two horn #spoons from the museum in Launceston. Their accompanying information says they were made at Port Arthur (prison settlement) but I have my doubts about this.

The right spoon is apparently typical of those made for institutional use in Britain. The left one is typical of a spoon made to imitate a silver spoon, probably intended for domestic use (maybe in a household that wants the latest fashion but doesn't have the income)

Horn spoons were made by flattening and heating (usually cattle) horn one end in a mould. With the right the skills and equipment, they're cheaper to make/sell than a metal spoon.
I've found no evidence so far that spoons/cutlery of any sort was made at Port Arthur.

Or that horn spoons were ever made in Tasmania (or Australia for that matter). They were imported and they were used in NSW institutions.

In a society where everything was imported, you'd think there'd be a market for goods that could be made easily from readily available materials.

You know what most often gets me stuck? Dependencies. This can happen in programming, in DIY, in housework, anything really.

This is how it goes:

I need to do A. Ah, but in order to do A, I have to do B first. Oh damn, before I can do B, I have to do C. And oh shit, C is pointless until I do D (this sometimes continues through half the alphabet...)

By the time I've worked out all the dependencies so I know what has to come first, I'm screwed. Motivation has left the building. The list is longer than I have the #spoons for, my sense of future time has disappeared and I shut down.

Now I'm writing about it, probably the best thing is to just try and do the first task *but* ignore the fact that all the others depend on it. But it's easy to forget that when you're in the thick of it, your anxiety is building and your spoons are disappearing left and right.

Another example of end-stage capitalism griding you down.

Forbes has removed their leaky API I relied on to stay informed of the realtime billionaires list.

I need to know why they are on there. What transactions lead up to this? Then I can follow that back through the trail of destruction.

It saves me time.

I have #MECFS via #LongCovid, and so I have very little energy. I also live in a covid-denying society where I have no choice but work my body to death in order to survive. They seem to have made their markup nearly unscrapable, and I just don't have the #spoons right now to figure out a workaround.

If anyone is hip to a daily data source of the billionaires I am all ears! Just one small pull a day from a single user.

That's like... asking for the tip of a hotdog from a Manhattan-sized butcher.*

*Like, the location is literally the size of Manhattan. Probably thousands of actual mutalators would be butchers, there.
