21:00—Good Night #Fediverse! 
Spent most of the day outside in the sun, and it was pretty eye-opening to see how consumerism and capitalism still manage to be present even on a Sunday when most stores are closed.
I'm totally worn out from walking around today, so I'm going to bed early.
I am home today, released from hospital. I am better, but weak. I was very confused middle of the week. Thought this started with Covid. No, started with Flu-A. Couldn’t remember the doctor visiting the room. Still on antibiotics for my streptococcal pneumonia in both lungs. As I am 70 and immunocompromised, this has been double+ungood. Hair is a rat’s nest.
It’s good to be home. It’s an unusually beautiful day. A good friend brought me homemade soup, much more appealing than the hospital food. My 4 year old grandson told me on FaceTime I need to eat “veggie-buls” to be strong like him. Held up his arms and flexed them to demonstrate. He repeated this advice several times.
I actually feel weaker than at hospital. Perhaps because of the little bit more walking around the house.
Not strong enough to keep up with the News. So disheartening. #exhausted
Feeling very poorly (quelle surprise!) so I tried for a nap.
The boys joined me, making the day's heat even worse.
I left them to watch birds in the snow. It worked… for a bit.
I had a cold shower - all three cats now camped outside the bathroom door.
No matter what happens, at least they love me.

alright, I do have to repeal some of the congealing anger.
I did get antibiotics, more prednisolone, a walk-in X ray referral, and BELIEVED when they observed I can speak in full sentences etc and I said "I'm compensating a lot rn."
Still angry, still losing it, still not here by choice. But fine. Today COULD have been more shit.
The family chaos is over for the day and it's time to watch SBS Gayo Daejeon!
Oh, and on a positive note:
Hoch die Hände, #Semesterende!
Monday/job hunting fatigue/bills we can't pay.
My family income (mainly Centrelink / govt support) has been about 50% of what is considered the poverty line in Australia for the past 5 months.
Over the past 24 months, we've had a liveable wage for 12 months. So 12 months of ... this.
What happened to savings? International relocation / Norwegian admin error leading to a large tax bill / 9 months of moving around trying to find a place to be.
Define: working poor.
It’s been a rough day

Yesterday was the most productive day I've had in a long time, I got so much done and felt so good, but today I'm completely #exhausted. I think the #stress of re-doing the thermal paste on the #CPU was a bit much combined with everything else. I'm supposed to train today but I can barely keep my eyes open.
Alright, my TikTok account is now "unbanned," but for how long? I've also done some other things this morning and am crossing my fingers that all will work out.
Eight days after the election and life is already exhausting. But we are going to have to fight anyway. Welcome to the new order. Most will not be open to the new challenge of resisting.
That's the fun part of being involved in interdisciplinary contexts: There's only multidisciplinary resulting in me contributing to various projects and activities in different fields at the same time. Including an officer role in more than one scientific society (and having agreed to be involved in organizing annual conferences)
Everyone assumes I'm just part of their adventure, so please can I look at, revise, implement this thing until, say, tomorrow evening?

The Washington Post · Carolyn Hax: Parent of trans teen is exhausted by constant protective alert
What if we, like, didn't get an October surprise. We've already gotten like 1 million surprises months 1 through 9 already. 
#BobTheDog had his turn at the vet’s today. As usual, he was an absolute asshole in the car, setting off the LOUD NOISE ALERT on my Apple Watch. We managed to distract him w/peanut butter for the blood draw and the shot. We had been working on desensitizing him to the bordatella intranasal vaccine. But the presence if 3 vet techs or something blew that away. He doesn’t bite, but he dies freak out a bit. #exhausted
