Though a "Diary" my online diary is a work of FICTION.

It may at times strongly reflect actual events of my life, often how I honestly perceived them and display my genuine reactions. But not always and everything contained within should be treated as a fiction.

This is also a personal diary, so by reading it you are violating my privacy. And as it is a personal diary you are not allowed to hold anything you read in it against me, as you shouldn't have been reading it anyway.

Also, this diary is not to be read by anyone who has gone out with me, would like to go out with me in the future, or suspects I may like to go out with them.

A week ago I had my hearing

I haven't been getting out much.

Or looking at screens much.

There has been a lot of audiobooks - including the six currently available Dungeon Crawler Carl books by Matt Dinniman.  Which are fun, but I al unconvinced by the LitRPG genre.  I may have mentioned this already, I don't remember it I have written in this since starting them and am too lazy to check.

I am enjoying how deeply anti-billionaire their underlying themes are.


Anyway, the ACC review hearing was deeply unpleasant.  The representative from ACC was very much there implying I was faking things to try and scam the system - but stuck to her script so implied that my request to be reassessed was grasping for money for personal gain, in spite of that making no logical sense.  And was generally abrasive and unpleasant.  The arbitrator was professionally neutral so while she was very polite I can't tell how she will lean.  The whole system is deeply unpleasant.


The Ascendice replacement base is much easier is mount, proving that I was not too stupid to use it but that the first one I had received had in fact been broken.  Now that I have a working one, I am very impressed with the product and glad I kickstarted it.

I have had my family visit too many times as dad was in town between jobs.  And my sister's inability to not touch everything in my house, including pawing though the contents of a package I had just opened and hadn't had a chance to look in myself yet, continues to grate on my nerves.  For someone very fixated on judging people for how well they follow an arbitrary set of made up rules she derived from tumblr posts, and getting very angry at violations of these rules that exist only in her head, she has absolutely no respect for requests that have been made of her to leave things that are not hers alone.
