A lovely Greater Thorn-tipped Longhorn Beetle (Pogonocherus hispidulus) from under bark and a Lesser Thorn-tipped Longhorn Beetle (Pogonocherus hispidus) tapped out of ivy yesterday in Shropshire

Inside me there are two ???s

I enjoyed this thread criticising AI, but this particular post intrigues me. Can I do any of these things that Oisin claims I can? As for AI, I think its purposes are its own, unrelated to any human need, like just about anything else that exists.

The Ambassador's Reception

Some days you just wanna give up , let everything go and follow the light inside of a red cabbage

Is it actually legal to broadcast something so powerful at this time of the morning? How Merry Clayton delivers that vocal with so much controlled passion just sends me. I was already buried deep in reflection, and now this smdh.

That's just me every day feeling overwhelmed simply by turning up to work.

What is this now, PG-13 Burroughs? So confused here.

If you take dynamic ads for a podcast, there's now a standardised "IAB code" block form you fill in, to say you don't want certain sorts of ads. It's INSANELY long. So many categories. Individual *pets*. You can't choose to say no to ads for: Crypto Gen AI NFTs Tech grifts etc Tech bros. Oh well.

People of Stockport. Find ninja. He’s known to hang out in sheds, last seen 02/03, please keep an eye out 🙏

it took bruce willis 130 minutes to realize he was a ghost and you expect men to notice a haircut.

Hurray! This Peacock in the garden today marks my fifth butterfly species for the year, completing the squad that overwinter as adults.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.” Absurd we still need to go through this 🧪👩‍🔬

Apropos of nothing, I'll bet Boris Johnson would have loved being called "Guv'nah".

Brimstone nectaring from a Primrose: the very essence of Spring! One of two seen in the garden today, along with Peacock and Comma.

no time to talk, the wasps are back

"Traitorsnz" 🤣

Rogan clearly aware of Trump's version of controlling the state, while Musk continues to fixate on his 'inner robot' conflict.

Inside me there are two wolves grandmothers squirrels kangaroos seabirds brain cells, but not for much longer, this twisted community WHERE DID MY FORMATTING GO???! 😡

Trump’s position on tax-and-spend here goes *even further* than the arguments put forward by Charles I during his personal rule. This is now not only going before the American revolution, it is going before the ‘English’ (ie British) civil wars. Even the Tudors would probably blanch at this.

The idea the president alone can levy taxes on a whim and spend it as he pleases without any congressional approval is the kind of thing so beyond the pale it's not unconstitutional, it's anti-constitutional. It is overturning in starkest terms the central rallying cry of the American Revolution.

Latest @gnofhorror.com essay, in which I take an uncharitable position on exorcism movies. To wit: they turn my stomach, but not for the reason you’d think.

Having evaded the camera yesterday, the Comma was back in the front garden this afternoon. This time, I managed to nab a photo!

CHIL BLNS

*knuckle tats* KANG AROO

🆘️ Spread the word, followers. 'Avengers Assemble' or sutin', idk.

David Niven's birthday, is it? Time once more for The Greatest Picture Ever Taken, then.

Gram Parsons followed by 'Maggot Brain'!? WTAF Huey #bbc6music

If only Ray Parlour ran a social media platform...
