And so, there's another reason to fucking hate the transphobic wizards series and culture's reaction to it.

You get those ghastly ~fence sitters~ who try to defend the transphobic wizards franchise by "it got kids reading" and just... were they living on another fucking planet in the 90s, because there were heaps of kid books which were media juggernauts at the time, and kids were fucking reading them.

A couple of years ago, there was a minor heatwave and my gf was recovering from surgery. The house was fucking sweltering and nothing we could do would fix it, despite airflow generally being great.

TIL that in 1981, a conference was called to organise a search for the impact crater for the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs. That same week, at another conference, a paper was presented having found just such a crater off Yucatán but it wasn't noted because everyone was at the other conference.

As a member of the diaspora, I sometimes get asked how you can tell if it's *good* halloumi or not. My top tip is to look for packaging with the absolute most dogshit, unhinged graphic design possible. If it looks like this, it's going to be delicious.

Something that I think those in power have forgotten is that things like the right to protest, strike provisions, human rights legislation, etc are the *compromise*.
By stripping those away, it's just as illegal to march from A to B as it is to drag them into the street and beat the shit out of them, and that's usually a damn sight more effective.

Very niche question, but I suspect someone in the fediverse will know all about this. I'd like to know more about the hardware used for the temporary chimney, flue and stoves used in papal elections to make the smoke come out. All I can find is information about the chemicals they use to make the ballots burn black or white, but I want to know more about the chimney. Do they use the same one every time? Is it kept under lock and key by a holy order of monks?

So the moral of the story is that tena pads are incredibly useful if you ever need to fix a washing machine, and also for the love of god check your clothes for awareness ribbons before washing them so you don't have to get the tena pads out.

2024-11-21 22:18:04 UTC

- reply

It was none of those things, but the blockage was my fault. Last month, at [@vagina_museum](https://masto.ai/@vagina_museum ) I helped host a menopause cafe. It was a wonderful event. And to celebrate, the team were all wearing menopause awareness ribbons.
Wrapped around that impeller was a perfectly intact pink and purple ribbon emblazoned MENOPAUSE CAFE.

2024-11-21 22:15:46 UTC

- reply

Once drained, the next step, per the tutorial, is "stick your finger in the impeller". There's a bit in there that goes round and round and washing machines get fucked because something blocks it. Me and the missus had discussed the probable blockage. I had accused her of it probably being either screws that she carries round with her always, or her hair. It was suggested that maybe it was random fruit seeds because I sometimes put muslins in the wash.

2024-11-21 22:13:04 UTC

I am truly awed by the absorbent capacity of the tena pad. Each one swelled to more than three times its size. They were carefully placed into a plastic bag for disposal. The bag of 16 washing machine sodden tena pads weighed somewhere between eight and ten kilos.
That's at least half a litre of water per pad. I am definitely taking these with me to piss into in future, much more dignified than a she-wee.

2024-11-21 22:10:39 UTC

It actually worked a charm. A baking tray lined with two tena pads could hold about 40 seconds of washing machine dribble.
Reader, we got through 16 tena pads in this process.

2024-11-21 22:09:30 UTC

- reply

We have a lot of boxes of tena pads. We bought in bulk in advance of my partner's surgical recovery and it turned out they weren't necessary. And so I fetched them from deepest storage, and we began lining the baking tray with them to slowly drain the washing machine.

2024-11-21 22:08:07 UTC

- reply

Anyway, the capacity of a baking tray is not very much. It holds maybe about 15 seconds of trickle before you have to veeeerry gingery pick it up off the floor and empty it into the sink. So we needed to be more efficient. This was where I became helpful.

(My technical language is poor because my partner is the competent one who actually understood the tutorial)

2024-11-21 22:05:19 UTC

- reply

For those of you who have never had to fiddle with the drain on a washing machine, there is a little bit at the bottom that you can open up. If you then twiddle it, it will start letting water out of the machine, trickling like a tap. It will go all over the floor unless you catch it.
Now the thing is, the water comes out from about an inch above the floor. So if you don't want to piss an entire wash cycle of water over your kitchen, you need to get a baking tray under it.

Our washing machine broke down. The drain was fucked, as in it was not draining at all. My partner's laundry was locked in there, swimming in water levels of fucked washing machines. So we did what any reasonable london renter would, and asked our landlord to fix it.

I'm going to tell you a story about menopause, except it's not really about menopause because I'm only 39, but menopause is sitting on this whole damn story like a sleep paralysis demon.

my dream trek spin off would be a noir miniseries where miles o'brien, honourably discharged but psychologically and physically irreparably damaged, tries to work out just why he and other gold shirts were let down so badly by starfleet in between drinking to excess, and discovers it goes all the way to the top. possibly assisted by garak. who is conflicted by being married to bashir.
