Don't forget.

You know why they made the first "AI actor" a woman, right? It's so they can make her do whatever they want. And she'll look like she's enjoying it too. #TillyNorwood

Has anyone yet found a replacement to the TFL map of weekend closures? No, I will not download their app just to see a simple visual of what's open and what's not. Is there an account on here I could follow with that information?

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing. www.science.org/content/arti...

What an expertly called shot

** Oh, this is a lovely story! **

Me five minutes ago: I'm not going to read the Prince Andrew biography, so I'll just read this article about it Me after reading these two paragraphs: LMAO GOOD GOD

Ditto. I’d have to ask ChatGPT to even know how to open ChatGPT.

Somebody on LinkedIn said what we're all thinking.

Can we move to a different planet, please? #heatwave

Want to see billboards in every major city that just say 'Power Bill Too High? Thank "Generative AI"' and then a link to a website all about "AI" and data center energy and water use

Sadly I found #TheNakedGun lacking. A few ok giggles, but no proper laughs from me. It could have been a lot sillier imo, and the lack of background visual humour was disappointing.

Writers should internalize Lao Tzu's lesson about how the emptiness at the center of a wheel is what makes it useful, and how a pot is valuable because of where the clay *isn't*. Corporate geek culture has warped us into thinking that negative spaces are flaws that need to be fixed.

Someone on here said that videogames offer a fantasy of predictable rewards for one's work, which in real life might not be rewarded at all. I think about it a lot!

Primark is really bringing the cute Autumn kitchenware this year.

‘why are transphobes so obsessed with genitals?’ it’s actually simple. they’re sexists. they’re obsessed with sex bcos they’re sexists. they view everything through the lens of sex. trans ppl existing really throws a spanner in the works and they short circuit. that’s why they want us eradicated.

16) Stole this one from a recent skeet I saw: If generative AI could REALLY make the next GTA in 6 months with 10 staff, or write the next bestseller, or produce 10 blockbusters a day? They wouldn't be trying to sell it to YOU. They would keep it for themselves and guard it from you ferociously.

Picked up some new glasses. It's been so long since I had a prescription change that I'm just like, "are the glasses wrong, or do my eyes just need to adjust?"

Has anyone ever been on a routemaster bus where the aircon vaguely worked? The 68 and 176 are just ovens. Can't wait for that design to be scrapped.

Look, to be fair to Dean Cain, he's not the dumbest, bootlickingest, most wrong-headed actor I've ever written for...

"The problem with AI isn't that it can do your job. It can't. The problem with AI is that your MBA-brained boss's boss doesn't know how your job works and thinks AI can do your job at fractions of a penny on the dollar, and hears the siren song of 'maximize shareholder value'." MBA-brain is real.

BREAKING NEWS: Dennis!!

This and TURNING RED are a masterclass in messy animated female characters. They’re allowed to be goblin-y, petty, selfish, loud, make weird goofy faces, do things wrong, and they have baggage and flaws that aren’t just “I’m a manic clumsy optimist, uwu!”

OK, so here’s my JJ Abrams story… Before I started working in digital restoration one of my primary jobs in post-production support was running the in-house theater and screening rooms at work. Every now and again it would get booked for casting sessions, because it was perfectly suited for that…

If you use AI to create your art, your story, your whatever, I immediately know you don’t care about making things — you only care about selling them.

What's predicted for Monday... at midnight!!! 🥵 #heatwave

I TALK ABOUT THIS CONSTANTLY This bizarre expectation that people (mostly women) have unique menus every evening for their families with low repetition/freshly prepared foods is EXTREMELY MODERN. Personally, I love to keep a pot of perpetual stew. Delicious, easy, and requires almost no thought.

Got this picture of Taye McRae at the #F1TheMovie premiere. Not bad for a camera phone on the 4th floor. #Tatemcrae

So #KPOPDEMONHUNTERS is kind of amazing. Strong recommend.

My neighbour in SE London is currently fostering this gorgeous friendly girl named Tiger. Looking for a forever home if anyone knows of anyone looking. #cats #fostering #tabbycat

Honestly, best trick I've found for this heatwave is to put one of those picnic box ice blocks under my feet wrapped in a pillowcase. They stay cold for a decent amount of time, and really help to cool you down.

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

This is THE tweet of all time

"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

Forecast for next weekend. I might die.

If people challenge your right to use a toilet, you should always ask who they are and what authority they have.

Why has no one yet created a simple account that posts a TFL map with the weekend closures on it? I refuse to download an entire app from @TFL just so I can see a picture.

Turns out that the @sainsburys.bsky.social own brand American mustard is actually better than French's Classic Yellow Mustard. Recently got some French's and found myself very disappointed. I just need my local Sainsbos to actually have some of theirs in stock!

Your password must contain two characters and they must talk to each other about something other than a man

Someone at Disney is frantically trying to contact Tig Notaro's agent, and working out if the edits can be done before October.

Finally caught #MissionImpossible8 yesterday, and the more I think about it, the lower my rating goes. I started at 3 stars, but I honestly might downgrade it to 2. Even for an action film it was really lacking substance and story.

When you've got a wedding at 1 but are being burned in a wicker effigy at 3

If I were able to deliver a message to either of these guys, my message would be this: "You're going to let that other guy treat you like this? Make a public fool of you? After all you did for him? I thought you were a big shot. Act like a man!" That's should settle things down.
