@liztai the USA is the *only* country where medical expenses and student debt are that out of whack… how did they not know this?

If you have a Windows computer and it forced you to make a Microsoft account to log in to it, here’s how to switch that account to a local one: https://web.archive.org/web/20240612104753/https:/support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-from-a-local-account-to-a-microsoft-account-395203bf-9f1b-eb24-b042-5b8dae6c1d20

This used to be in the Microsoft support docs, but at some point last year they removed it. Thank you, Wayback Machine!

@lookitmychicken oh noooo! that's such a hassle and so stressful!

@lookitmychicken your curls look fantastic! 😍 I’m interested in how the silk pillowcases work for you—I’ve never tried them.

@lookitmychicken I support you 😂 ❤️

@lookitmychicken I’m going to take this advice tomorrow morning!

@lookitmychicken prettyyyyy

LB: Riverside Code at Qingming Festival is a cdrama based on a novel that is inspired by the famous painting, Along the River During the Qingming Festival! https://mydramalist.com/71769-qing-ming-shang-he-tu-mi-ma

Someone in the MDL comments linked to this article about how the author, Ye Wenbiao, was inspired: https://u.osu.edu/mclc/2015/04/02/historical-thriller-based-on-famous-painting/. Ye says he will eventually write about all 824 people in the painting.

Wikipedia has a full-size scan of the painting if you want to try it yourself! https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/86/Alongtheriver_QingMing.jpg

@liztai is that a giant smoke-jellyfish terrorising the city? 😅

I agree, it looks great!

@lookitmychicken oh cool! How are you finding it?

@lookitmychicken very cute indeed!

@lookitmychicken I like chia pudding but I've never tried to make it—I should try that some time!

Something a bit different: my #Upto99Fanworks fic, a post-canon piece for Vina Jie-Min Prasad's wonderful sci-fi short story. You can read that story here: https://www.uncannymagazine.com/article/fandom-for-robots/. It's less than 5000 words and I strongly recommend it!

I was really happy to write about Computron and bjornruffian having further adventures together. ❤️
