Things of Your Day

I’m not sure how my school taught subtraction because my dad played me that song before I was learning basic subtraction, so I learned subtraction mostly by memorizing the technique used in that song. I also learned alternate bases along the way, which I was disappointed to learn never fucking come up in elementary or high school curriculum.

It’s free, open source, and cross-platform.

I took a weld test tuesday to transfer my title from Weld Specialist to Welder (sounds backwards sort of, I know), and found out today that I passed it. Along with a layout (blueprint) knowledge test I took previously, they combine to a significant raise (+$3.15/hour) without any extra responsibility. Here is a video of what my weld test basically was.

I feel great kinship with this fictional robot.

Local elections were yesterday.

My brother was looking to make a difference by canvassing for one of the smaller parties and they won! I reckon he made a difference because my hometown isn’t otherwise like that!

Where I live the Green candidate beat the existing Conservative councillor although they still retain a local majority.

This one’s not exactly a happy thing, but it’s probably the most important thing on the internet for me right now: https://www.gofundme.com/5h9xf-new-set-of-wheels . Luticha Doucette is an activist, civil servant, and an amazing person in addition to being my girlfriend. I’d be glad if anyone here can help out.

In another wonderful example of our medical system, the only help provided to a person with a disability is inside their own home. No help with mobility assistance above the bare minimum.

There are now 2 awesome things on Malloy’s desk The national vote compact, and a requirement for holocaust and more generally genocide education.

I don’t know why there’s so much hate for Malloy. I love the guy. I’ve liked him ever since I shook his hand when I was like 8 and he was just the Mayor of Stamford and attending my immigration ceremony.
