Sorry I lied, it was 2005 Sorry Phill

Had a wee next to Phill Jupitus at Download festival 2006

Today I am grateful for: My 24/7 gym membership, and my 1 year old who makes sure I am awake to use it

Do you think nursery is so expensive because of all the vials of flu they inject them with on their first day

Hope all the Saudi money is worth it Punk!

Just saying If you're worried about AIO, remember all those calculators you built and forgot about in 2010? Google can't scrape that content and stick it in an AIO block

A big deal was made at Summer Games Fest about how "only 30 people" made Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 - which of course we know is nonsense. BUT it did make me realise what people like Keighley will never mention:

People complain about AI still being a bit thick but I've never felt more like we live in a sci fi TV show The TV show is Red Dwarf and the AI is Holly

Which means we've had this handsome little Prince for 9 years!

Twitter: this is how men with huge balls fight. This is what masculinity looks like Bluesky: this is the first messy breakup of pride month

Me listening to the new turnstile record

Can't think of a single time the MGM lion advanced the plot of the movie in any way. Just needless jump scare

I've just seen a post about how Gemini has killed search yada yada yada starting with the words "Why is nobody talking about this!?" My friend open one (1) social media platform

Feeling miserable about this: About 18 months ago I started trying to get an ADHD assessment. Filled in a form, which somehow very quickly led to an Autism assessment (?), and since then nothing. Was going to go private, but most Welsh GPs don't accept private diagnoses.

Anyway, today I have become overwhelmed by the urge to watch Prince of Darkness

Been off work for 13 weeks so I haven't been driven quite as mad by AI as other people, but I'm learning about MCP servers and frankly I'm glad someone finally invented APIs for APIs

The job title "SEO" is dead Long live the Algorithm Bastard

Your iPhone wishes it had this much sauce

I would get hair loss drugs from temu before I got them from a discord DAO
