   I woke up feeling rubbish this morning, the first day of my Christmas leave.

   My wife said she was feeling rubbish last night, but thought it was side effects from the Zyrtec she took for hayfever yesterday.

   Her hayfever has been pretty bad for a couple of days.

   We have friends coming over tomorrow, and one of them spent a large chunk of the last couple of years being treated (successfully) for lymphoma.

   I went and bought a 5-pack of COVID/Flu A/B RATs, and tested negative.

   My wife, however, has COVID for the first time.

   Our friends are no longer coming over.

   Christmas is (kind-of) cancelled.

   Oh I'm well aware. It was a bit of a snipe at what I believe most people mean when they say "compatible with fedi", where what they mean is with mastodon, whose dominance of the fedi I've long thought a net negative.

   My one personal stake in this bluesky moment is that it breaks the idea of mastodon's capture of twitter users being the best thing for the growth/health of the fediverse.
