i can't install the fan without the brackets (which i don't have), i couldn't install the brackets without taking the motherboard out of the case, and i can't leave the motherboard lying around unprotected, so back in the box it goes
i'm not self-deprecating, i don't have any choice here unless i want to risk doing any more damage.
as long as we don't have proportional representation, a referendum like this one is the only opportunity a lot of people are going to have for their votes to count towards anything
too bad it's an anything that could fuck up the good friday agreement
Although it was mostly England, and more particularly old white people in England.
The Northern Ireland situation looks pretty dire. I never thought I would see the day when avowed unionists would be seriously considering reunification as an option, even in the distant future.
There is a small part of me that I am deeply ashamed of (let's call her The Paradox Fangirl) who is mostly just excited that national borders might change.
Other than that though the entire situation is pretty thoroughly shitty?
And I don't know, that combined with this whole "cop war" thing at home, the world's in a pretty dark state right now.

ehh, statistically, yes, but there's a lot of people voted leave who that doesn't describe. it wasn't just 'immigrants out'.
i would like to draw attention to the fact that, in England AND Wales, poor communities tended to vote leave (north and south, Labour and Tory), and to the dishonest claims of the leave campaign (especially the promise of extra money spent on the NHS), and to the influences of Murdoch and the Daily Mail see also

yeah, it's bad, and i don't expect anything good to come out of Brexit
No I will pretty openly tell you I don't--can't even--care about things happening on the other side of the world.
I mean it's like, literally impossible to? You will stress yourself to death. There's nothing I can do about the aging crisis in Japan, or fascists taking over Greece.
I can say I think it's horrible, and I do, but that's not really caring, that's just having an opinion on something. There are lots of things I think are horrible that I don't really care about because they don't happen to me or people I know.
I mean, the federal lands in Utah alone are bigger than the whole of Switzerland, and people are campaigning to have those made Public and developed in a suit against the federal government.
But, actually, it turns out that several of those millions of dollars have been embezzled by the politicians and lawyers.
Also, in my opinion, this has no chance of actually getting the land made public, and is just a way for people to do populist anti-east-coast rhetoric and get millions of dollars of donations in fundraising.
That sort of thing matters to me, but not to the people of Germany. Should the same happen in Germany, they would care but I would probably not even be aware.
i'm reasonably well-informed. if i devoted my attention to things based on their severity I would pretty much never care about the united states or kingdom except in the context of their militaries killing people elsewhere. first world problems cept not a joke. i can't do anything about any of it anyway, so hey: fuck everything. death for all.

Sometimes I wonder if the Zodiac Killer wasn't real, but instead a manifestation of the collective unconcious' desire to see bloodshed and constellations

i'm putting everything back into its boxes
except i'm leaving the cpu in the socket because i don't want to risk damaging it further
i should not have attempted this, i should not have fooled myself into thinking i am capable of doing anything halfway intelligent
i might be able to fix it with pliers but agh

i wasn't careful enough, and this is what happened
and now the fan grill is all bent and this just sucks
it was supposed to be perfect, i've been saving for so long
i mean it doesn't actually matter how it looks, it's an internal component anyway, it's just a permanent physical record of my failure
but it's a terrible idea the country elected to do democratically
by which i mean the UK, NI didn't actually want this
but i mean, i still managed to screw up, because i assumed i had a component i didn't have, a lump of plastic, at that
please don't call me 'dude'. i don't like that
the only point i was making was that it was the UK overall that made this decision, not only England and Wales. It wasn't FPTP.

i know you don't like the singular 'they', and i won't call you that.
i don't like calling a person 'it' because it feels extremely disrespectful, but i'll respect your wishes on this matter.
i still don't think it's a nice attitude to have but there's always so much going on in the world and you can't be an expert on everything everywhere.

that's different from just not caring about people elsewhere, i think
like if something bad happens elsewhere in the world, if you feel concerned for the people there, then you do on some level care about it
i had forgotten that detail and now idk what to say
No thank you.
But neither is whining here so whatever, bye.
i can't work on my computer today or tomorrow, so i might as well get some exercise. Sitting around feeling sorry for myself won't help at all.
this is an oxymoron
