Yes... ha ha ha... Yes!

I don't have any strong opinion on whether Angela Rayner should have resigned or not. Others in Labour have (will have) done far far worse and not resigned.

I reckon that Rayner will have been pushed to resign by opportunistic Blue Labour wanks, in the hopes of getting someone further to the right of her in.

While her views were never hard left enough for me, I can imagine she was still seen as too far left by that lot.

The culture of working in tech these days is being constantly worried about being overworked or unemployed.

Take care of yourselves. We are replaceable cogs to our employers but irreplaceable to our family and friends.

Oh and thanks for the validation everyone, I needed that.

The modern job market is a game of Werewolf, with lots and lots of werewolves.

Posted a rant about feeling uncomfortable around being expected to answer phone calls from unknown numbers at an unspecified time from an unspecified number and give them private info.

Part of this is uncomfortable for me because autism but also, surely, is just common sense to not be comfortable with this, right?

This would probably be called an "autistic trait" but I think it's perfectly reasonable not to answer the phone to unknown callers, and yet...

Am I the one with the "mental disorder"?

I don't use the phone often except for a small number of people on the odd occasion, so I am pretty safe in assuming calls from random numbers are scams, and yet...

I'm in the middle of expecting two legitimate calls right now, which will arrive at an unspecified time from a random number, who will probably expect me to give them private info
