Does your contract support such work? Or is it one of those vague "whatever else that may be reasonably expected" contracts?

I needed to do disability stuff on a government website. Turns out, the website that I need is only active during certain time ranges.

Leave it to the United States government to build a website that closes for the night.

Don't be fooled, it's totally intended to restrict the number of applicants, while still giving lip-service to "It's totally available!"

Kinda like the "A file cabinet in a disused lavatory of the sub sub basement behind a sign that says "Beware of the leopard!"" in hitch-hiker's guide to the galaxy.

Or some of the cancer treatment policies that you can see around the world... in a certain place, daratumumab is only reimbursed if used in monotherapy... and in monotherapy it's all but guaranteed that you'll progress after a couple of cycles.

I didn't know that you could have sore ankles. And they are incredibly inconvenient.

Ankles are one of the bits that are hard to soothe, impossible to avoid using, and subject to unsuitable amounts of pressure and stress.  Better break out the bonesaw while you're still sane enough to do what has to be done.

It kind of gives me a bulge to think about how beautiful it is.
I mean, its all relativistic, isn't it?
You have your blue shifts, and your days when you feel red, but ultimately you're just a quirk.  Many quirks that make up a personality.
There are times when life is good, and you accrete with the help of your SO,
But then they blow up and leave you alone.
With a vacuum in your heart.
Just know that that space will one day be filled by a higher purpose; a singularity of form: once your soul is crushed like an errant electron.

And what kind of pisses me off the most though, is how I cannot see the vast majority of the night sky because I live in a convenient place where we have so much light we shine brighter than the stars above.

Just had a 13-14% chance trigger on me about seven, eight times in a row. Playing terraria, say to myself, okay, bathroom just as soon as I finish converting all this orichalcum to mythril (mods, don't question it). Get down to last piece of orichalcum, 13-14ish % chance to conserve material one of the other mods has going promptly triggers. And triggers. And again, and again, and again, several times sequentially.

Today I have learned that gastric distress is the secret to probability manipulation.

I got a bunch of fake accounts spamming me on sites where I post shit I make.

I think it's because I tag my stuff with '3d model', and the shitty bots think it's the other type of modelling.

If it makes you feel any better, if we didn't have that light near us we'd die.

The Sun gives off plenty of light pollution. Plus all that radiation. And those damn neutrinos! They're everywhere!

And cities are dangerous at night without streetlights.
That said, light pollution does suck.  It's a nice reason to leave town occasionally, just to see the sky clearly.
