All of you who have done the same job for decades, how? I'm not complaining, there's something comforting in the day to day, but 15 years in I just... don't want to anymore. No partner no children, so that pressure is off, but I need to feed, heat and house myself. Thus, job is not optional. There's stuff I want to do, there's stuff in the neighbourhood that could be cleaner and better. I'm just an urchin, I don't need much, can I just do good and be fed? |

I agreed to do a remote training course courtesy of the Job Centre. That course was cancelled, because not enough people wanted to do it, so I agreed to do another course. However, only this morning have I realised this is in person, meaning I have to schlep to another town to learn a load of bullshit in a room full of people. Fucking people! Christ, what a nightmare. |

It's always satisfying to be able to write "paid" on your bills and invoices and file them. Just a relief to put something behind you. I was fretting about £360 I had to pay for something, but now that that money is transferred, I can just forget about it. The worst thing is when you know you've got something like that coming, and then dreading the day it'll be in the post. Every day that it doesn't arrive feels like reprieve, but you know you can't escape your obligation to eventually fork over the money. |

Me and my new housemate need to get into relationships. I worry I've become a bit of a boyfriend for her, listening to her life stuff and cheering her up over tea, watching television together, handling the bloke shit and she's sending me very gay texts when she's at work for listening to her and asking what I'm doing in the evening. She's also starting to invite herself to my work events and is following up on it even when it involves taking a trip. We're not each others type at all and she seems like a complete fucking nightmare to be in a relationship with but the rampant eye-fucking I'm doing from having a woman in my flat and spending all this time together is getting a bit much. |

A woman in front of me in the queue at NatWest this morning was asking pretty specific questions about AML reporting of cash withdrawals. She wanted to know the bank's reporting duties if she withdrew £10K in cash. Apparently what they told her then deterred her, and she left without withdrawing any money at all. The bank employee asked her "Is this for a car or something like it?", but she said no and that she'd rather not tell him while other people were around. |

I don't think I want to be in the office more, but I'm enjoying working from home a lot less than I used to. I think that's because I changed companies last year and at my previous place, where I was over lockdown, it wasn't uncommon to talk to several people during the day via Teams whereas here I'll generally spend thirty minutes to an hour on the phone with my ADHD and autistic colleague and that's it, which isn't the same. My favourite working day of the week is now the one day everyone from my team is in the office. |

It's the 10 year anniversary of GamerGate in August. I lost my virginity to a genderqueer fisherperson that same month. After sex we discussed video games and GG. They said that playing Candy Crush made them more of a gamer than someone who played Skyrim, because Candy Crush was a puzzle game and the first video games like Pac Man were puzzle games, so I guess they were arguing Candy Crush is more pure a game than Skyrim. At the time I thought they were retarded so just smiled and nodded, but then when I think back, maybe they're right. I dislike both games, so I have no horse in the race. Could their argument have defeated GG in its tracks? |

I see Gamergate as more like Brexit. Gaming journalism was corrupt and exploitative, and the people were ready to rise up and fight back. Just like how we were all angry about austerity, and how it wasn’t working. Then, some people came along and inserted themselves at the head of this populist movement, and steered it in completely the wrong direction. Don’t blame bankers and politicians for your shitty lives; the real problem is too many Polish roofers. Don’t blame incestuous lobbying and bribery for the laughable state of videogame journalism; your real enemy is women’s rights for some reason. And people, unfortunately, listened, and ruined what could have been a noble attempt to improve everyone’s lives. |

I need to get up at 7am tomorrow to drive 150 miles to a funeral. Train schedules seemed a bit iffy with not much time to switch between connecting trains and I would have been there, at the station, just 20 minutes before the service at the chapel is supposed to start. Felt like a bit of a gamble. On the upside, it means I get to sleep an hour longer because otherwise I probaly would have had to get up at 5:45. |

In such a wank mood right now. Firstly, now the new fucking tutor on my course is also a conspiracy nut as well; crisis actors this, Soros funded protests that. Thick cunt's got the balls to ask me "you're not a fan of that Peta (sic) Thunberg are you?". Not really, mate, but we'll see how cocky you are when the Mersey Estuary's lapping at your ankles, you scouse twat. Then I schlep across town to join Labour for some canvassing. The whole thing takes half-an-hour and only one door opens, which means I stand there almost mute while shadowing an old geezer who couldn't persaude a starving dog to eat a slice of ham. I did find out that the reason I couldn't do any campaign stuff in my constituency is because everyone hates the local jeffe, and they're afraid that the regional manager will knock their heads together for not campaigning in more winnable seats. I gave my number to someone who said he'd hook me up to do something local, but I get the feeling he's either going to forget or just fuck me off. |

pngimg.com - mosquito_PNG18168.png ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm struggling with the heat and mosquitoes. I'm keeping internal doors closed at night to limit the light from escaping, which I believe would attract mosquitoes. I can't open windows, even with lights off, for fear of mosquitos coming in on the hot air (which seems to have happened each time I've tried). I have no curtains to keep the sun out, and can't really put them on the main bathroom window it's coming through. I've been without glasses for over a year now so struggle to find them throughout my house - even when I had then it was difficult. |

While we're on the subject of TVs. Do TV repair services still exist in any shape or form? I grew up in a time as a weelad when a CRT colour TV was still either rented or a considerable investment, so I remember a TV repairman occasionally paying us a visit, who would then actually fix the TV there and then, if possible. Even replacing the odd capacitor and other bits. Except for one time, when he took it to the shop to fix and we had to make do with my parents' old black and white TV from the attic for about a week. |

Stephen Fry also said once that he thinks most sports were devised as ways for men to show off male talents to women. A sport where women were better than you would never catch on. So this also helps to explain why women are, broadly, crap at most sports, and why only boyish women play football. |

You know, something I've thought about recently is that a good number of the medium to longform YouTubers I watch are actually decent enough writers. A lot of them are shit editors too, but that's besides the point. However, it seems like YouTube is the final destination for them, no matter what and you can't really do something different on an established YouTube channel because no cunt watches it when you do, which is a shame. It's a bit like if Charlie Brooker was still at PC Zone. |

What are the proper use cases for "yeh", "yez" and "you" in Geordie? I've just heard someone use all three in a sentence, they all mean "you" but there are clearly different contexts where one but not another is appropriate. Plural and singular? Specific and non? Mutations based on surrounding words like in Welsh? |

What's a good, reliable, resilient mouse? My only needs are for it to be ergonomic, have adjustible DPI, and be well made. I bought a wireless HyperX gaming mouse in April but the middle button now double clicks every time I want to single click it which makes it kind of unusable. It currently retails for £90, I paid £48 on offer, but I am hesitant to spend a lot on a new mouse unless I know it's built to last. |

Do you think positive vibes protect you from bad things? Years ago I had sex with several women on the first date seeing them, and I didn't use protection. I could have got AIDS and/or gotten them pregnant, but I didn't, because I thought "it is not narratively logical for me to get AIDS or knock someone up".

I had to leave my last job for mental health reasons, and I was clear about that in my initial chat with them and while they seemed understanding I do wonder if I've pre-emptively shot myself in the foot a little.

Can an employer recall a BACS payment? Pay day is on Wednesday, but I'm with Monzo so I can see the payment is pending (and I can access the money from 4PM Tuesday). I sort of thought I was overpaid a few months ago, but it was never recovered in subsequent pays, and I was scared if it did happen that it would get recovered in my final pay (I got sacked).

I found an original 1980s aerobics video on a free streaming service. It's an hour and a quarter long. I've watched some of these home exercise videos before, and I'm not fit at all, but the videos are always aimed at 70-year-olds so I'd say I do okay. But that motherfucker Jane Fonda just does not stop, for the entire video. I jogged and jumped and waved my arms with her until the streaming service inserted an advert, and then I stopped. The video started again, and so did I, until I lost faith that I would ever get the fun yoga bits where you just lie on the floor and get hypnotised. A total of 15 minutes had elapsed when I gave up. There was over an hour left. Fitness for old people my bloody bollocks. |

I currently work in a shop. Completely unrelated to that, I decided at the end of last week to just not look at porn for a bit, just a self-discipline thing, nothing more than that. Anyway, today, in the shop, I served a customer. She was pregnant, which isn't something I'd call a fetish of mine, but she was wearing this tight blue dress and no bra and I was so fucking horny I could barely look her in the eye. |

Screenshot 2024-07-29 113430.png ![]() ![]() ![]() Been looking for an engagement ring for my girlfriend. She likes green and orange stones which gives me a wide range of stuff, and they're not at diamond prices. I don't really understand jewellery. Anything more than a bog standard Casio F91w is too much embellishment for a person. I got one of those gold coloured metal Casio digital watches last year but I am too scared to wear it in case I look like a spiv. I guess it's fine for women and black people, they can pull it off, but standard speccy white cunt shouldn't be walking around with a gold sovereign on. |

I think stabbing 11 children, killing 2, is really bad. I can't imagine looking through his eyes at a room full of little girls and thinking "yeah I'm gonna stab em". But I can imagine being a child and being stabbed by some mad cunt and thinking "shit I'm bleeding out what the fuck". I don't agree with the death penalty but killing random kids is a bit gauche. |

I was thinking of subscribing to Ubisoft+ because I want to play Star Wars Outlaws and can more easily justify £15 for a month's access than £70 for a likely bad game I will likely never replay. Maybe it keep it through October for Assassin's Creed Alienate The Japanese edition. But looking at the service, it makes me realise how shit Ubisoft is. Their last few big games are Avatar (blue people not air bending), a franchise nobody cares about; Skull & Bones "the first AAAA" game which was a huge disaster; Prince Of Persia The Lost Crown which is actually alright; and Assassin's Creed Mirage which is bland. You get all the Ultimate Editions and early access to new games but the value seems poor. It's more than Game Pass, you're limited only to Ubi games, modern Ubi games have no replay value, modern Ubi games have no creative merit. |

My local ice cream van plays every third note of O Sole Mio, also known in this country as “Just One Cornetto” because of that advert that hasn’t been on TV for 30 years. I think it’s a good choice of tune, but the fact it’s only every third note makes it very hard to recognise, and the fact you can hear it from miles away at all hours of the day and night is really giving me some odd PTSD-like Pavlovian revulsion and I wish I could stop hearing it and I hate it so much. |

Do retailers get money back when you return and refund a product? I imagine they get some from the manufacturer or supplier if it's a faulty product, but if I buy an item, return as I no longer need it, do they write it off or is it tax deductible or something? |

Abit concerned about my computer. Since mentioning the LGBT lights the other week, they've stopped working. Now my keyboard is cutting out, even with fresh batteries. Writing this now, only the O is faulty (which incedentally has begun picking up the slack) where previously it was multiple keys. |

I'm doing the online induction for uni because I'm starting in September. I have to do a course on consent. I'm an old boomer, I've been with my girlfriend for nine years, I've never done a rape. I don't think the course is necessary for me. You can get out of it if you've been raped before which I sort of have but then it's awkward emailing them saying "I can't do the anti-rape course due to the rape I suffered". |

I've been restoring some family heirloom hi-fi components this past week, and I'm shocked that there is actually a noticeable difference in sound quality between my trusty old mid-range Kenwood CD player and a Denon CD player, both made in 1990 and fully restored, the Denon probably costing about 50 to 100 quid more at the time. |

I fear I'm becoming some kind of "Karen" as I get older. I'm less and less tolerable to poor service and poor manners. I don't say anything about it, but I find myself genuinely pissed off if a shop worker is rude or unreasonable, whereas before I would shrug it off. Is this an inevitable part of your mid 30s? And are people (of all generations) getting ruder? Or am I just getting older? |
