@jeang3nie@social.linux.pizzaSo the #NoKings protests are going on. I'd love to join, but like millions of Americans who are among the most pissed off (think anyone working in any kind of service industry) I'm here at work.
It's been quite a long time since I've had regular weekends on the days that a lot of you take for granted having off. It's socially alienating for sure, you miss all kinds o…
@rocksongoftheweek@mastodon.worldBack to the ’80s this week as our spotlight lands on a feel-good track from Alexa. Bright, upbeat, and tailor-made for cruising into one of the final weekends of the year.
Give it a spin, soak up the vibes, and see what we had to say about the track and the artist behind it.
Follow us as we dig up more curiosities from across the epic world of #rock and

@callunavulgaris@mastodon.scotI'm trying to convince myself that parkin, and possibly parkin and custard, is a perfectly reasonable and nutritious breakfast. Wish me luck. One of the most wonderful weekends of my life started with vegan gingerbread for breakfast at a coffee shop on Queen Street 😄 I'm a gingerbread connoisseur and was surprised how good it was without eggs and butter. It was one of those weekends when I fantasise about having Glasgow on my doorstep. Fingers xxed we can actually make it happen in d…
@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.ioI can’t log in to my health insurance account and apparently my insurance (with 10,000 employees) doesn’t have tech support on weekends
@losttourist@social.chatty.monsterI'm at the GPs. At the entrance they have a large touch screen which you use when you arrive to sign in, so that they know you're here.
Except as was said to me and to each person who walks through the door by the receptionist: "that system doesn't work on a Saturday, can I have your details please?"
I'm struggling to understand why the computer gets to have weekends off 😵💫
@cjust@infosec.exchangeI'm struggling to understand why the computer gets to have weekends off
It's probably a database server, and has strong UNION statements
@philip@mastodon.mallegolhansen.com@… Given that I’m driving down from Washington, weekends are definitely a preference for me.
But there’s no rule that says you have to plan around that either. Might be good to do various days and times, so that those who can never make it on a weekend, or never late, or never on a full moon, all have a chance *sometimes*.

@laimis@mstdn.socialI've been so busy with coaching softball this fall. And not one team, but two! Both by accident. The first one from day one did not have a coach when our league formed, so three of us stepped up to share the duties. And the second one, the coach/manager quit half way through. Two teams means all my weekends are gone for all practical purposes with games. One plays on Saturdays and the other on Sundays. And then during the week I only have one day softball free: Tuesday. It's been too…

@ellie@ellieayla.netLakeshore West service is cancelled many weekends of December for bridge construction in Etobicoke. And it's seriously harshing my attempts at plans.

@cdarwin@c.imHe has labored in the fields every summer and on weekends during the school year since he was 11 years old to help his mother, who also picks berries.
His siblings, uncles and cousins — four of them minors — work in local strawberry fields.
Jose said that some days he didn’t fill many boxes and earned less than minimum wage for the hours he worked,
Awhich would be a violation of state child labor laws.
He described toiling under the hot sun in fields where employers f…
@metacurity@infosec.exchangeThere are no weekends in cybersecurity so check out today's Metacurity for the most critical infosec developments you might have missed since Friday, including
--Over 60 nations signed a controversial cybercrime convention,
--House Democrat service exposed details of government employees with top-secret clearances,
--AI chatbots push Russian propaganda,
--A third-party contractor exposed details on Dublin and Cork airport passengers,
--Philippines' GCash u…
@trezzer@social.linux.pizzaWas hoping to get lots of things done this weekend. Preparing the garden for winter, messing around with some hardware, watching some movies … instead I’m just keeping my fingers crossed that the mild uveitis-sensation doesn’t blossom into the real deal while staying away from light. Sigh. It’s always on weekends when the local apothecary closes early.
@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itSNAP benefits not going out should be a wake-up call for states/counties/cities to ensure that not only can all students get free, no-hassle lunches from their public schools, but also free breakfasts. And we really should piggyback off that to have extra (packed) food for kids to bring home weekends and for additional family member needs..
That obviously won't be enough to meet this crisis, but it's something that should've been happening already.
@mxp@mastodon.acm.orgMission accomplished!
I’m now continuing (back) to Bern on the train on which my wife arrived, since the IC 5 currently doesn’t run on weekends (or with replacement buses).

@JSkier@social.linux.pizzaDusted off and worked on the #frameworkLaptop yesterday, up and running. The kiddos both game on the weekends, so I had some use for it again.

@cdarwin@c.imFor months, she had been mentally preparing for this moment
as she helped one colleague after another who had been fired by the Trump administration
pack up their offices.
She took on hundreds of additional motions from the dockets of her terminated colleagues,
working weekends and nights to shoulder the exponentially growing workload.
But nothing could have emotionally prepared her to see the email come in.
The floodgates opened. She broke down in tears…
@philip@mastodon.mallegolhansen.comAndré Rieu was my grandfather's favorite musician. He would listen quietly on the stereo after my grandmother went to bed, almost every single night.
I have fond memories of the weekends and holidays spent at their house, getting out of bed to use the bathroom, or get a glass of milk, walking in on the quiet music in the living room.
For grandpa, I'm playing Rieu tonight.
@cjust@infosec.exchangeMaybe she should do a collab with Skrillex

@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caOne of the absolute best things about #portalberni is the No7 Steam Train. It was under repairs for a few years and boy did we miss it but this year it has run on many weekends. It’s doing Santa runs along the waterfront and rail yard every Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening to Christmas!
