1/ My first grievance is that there is no lazy way to score an aluminum pole. I looked in the trash room and there wasn't one. I meant to make a pencil sized one out of kitchen foil but forgot. Finally, I taped a stainless steel straw to my desk. Tiny and the wrong metal. 🤬

2/ Speaking of which, my memory is starting to go, thanks to both regular aging and the fact that my life has grown more complicated gradually, without commensurate increase in money or number of butlers (still 0) to help deal with it. This sucks.

3/ My third grievance is against health nuts. I'd *like* to regularly and loudly whine about middle-age health problems on twitter, except I know the health nazis will instantly sealion me with annoying unwanted and unsolicited advice, so I have to keep it in and get stressed out

4/ My fourth grievance is a generalization of #3: against advice-givers in general. Why can't I just get on this website and complain about shit without hordes of "helpful" people rushing in to process their own damn insecurities by giving ME advice?
