Request desktop site *sort of* works. It's not ideal, but I just don't understand why Twitch are making it less easy or desirable for me to give them money.

So it's now almost impossible to gift a subscription on Twitch on my iPhone. Clicking on almost anything opens the app. Especially the "gift a sub" button, which advises me to manage my subscription in the iOS app.

Apple charges an additional £1.50 per £4.99 sub.

Fuck.
That.

My therapist has now cancelled on me four times so far this year. More times than we’ve met.

I’m wondering if she’s going through some stuff.

Feels inappropriate to ask, like it would be a role-reversal in a situation where the roles are more clearly defined than almost any other.

Bet it’s got a really good weight to it. Really satisfying to wield.

I hope that the number of ads I’m seeing for the full-cast audiobooks about the magic school means that it’s bombing.

Sadly I suspect that even “significantly lower than expected” would still be financially lucrative for all involved.

Just starting some new anxiety pills this week.

This morning one got stuck in my throat.

This has NOT improved the anxiety.

TONIGHT! Come and see a show that is for anyone who has a tricky relationship with their own face and knows the Noel's House Party theme tune goes FUCKING HARD.

Gregg Wallace: NOTHING WAS MY FAULT BECAUSE AUTISM

Me, when someone reads a thing I said and takes a different interpretation to my intention: Aaaaaah shit I’m shit I totally see how they read it that way fuck I need to make amends and explain thoroughly my original intention whilst not undermining

Just left a poor review of an item on Amazon. So now I have to go and make sure I leave several 4-5 star reviews on other items and books I've bought in the past so that my brain doesn't make me feel like I only ever complain about things.

Somehow I wasn't diagnosed AuDHD until I was almost 40.

Now your character has ADHD too!

For a person who doesn’t go outside a lot anyway, fuck I can feel the SAD lifting with the clock change and two days of nice weather.

Eep.

Today is #longcovidawarenessday

If you’re not aware, LC, like ME/CFS, devastates lives. And the medical profession has almost entirely abandoned sufferers.

And now in the U.K., it sounds as if most will now lose their PIP.

💔

I’m currently in a Long COVID dip where I just want to sleep for most of the day and my brain is even less well-equipped to cope with things than usual.

It is, however, #longcovidawarenessday, so… be aware. This thing fucking sucks.

I am once again begging you to understand that a man can be good at art AND a monster. Pretending once the truth comes out that the art was never actually that good only shelters the next monster.

*sumatriptan

I’ve had migraines for decades.

My GP saw this note on my long COVID clinic assessment, and asked if I’d ever tried Sumatripan.

Just had my first tablet when I had signs of a migraine this morning.

Holy fuck, game changer.

I’d usually be in pain for days. I started to feel better in 40 mins.

Can we go to Denmark anyway? It seems better than here.

DISAPPOINTINGLY FLAVOURED SOUP.
