Let’s be clear: we have annihilated crazy ideas like “let’s plant some nice trees, make a free-to-use broadband network and have a government factory making generic drugs”, apparently so we could have racist rioting, chat about civil war, genital checks at toilets and protection for genocidaires.

“well at least now they’re being honest about it” no! this stuff is shameful and people should have to hide it! honest bigotry is bad!

Can we just do separate bathrooms for the evangelical Christians? Knowing how focused they are on other people’s genitals, I’m not comfortable being in a bathroom with them.

Don't tempt me! Or maybe do tempt me .... maybe this is the weekend I start my crime spree 😂😂

I would REALLY like to see the cat road collisions petition actually get somewhere this time. Two weeks left to get it over the 100k line so ministers can't just shrug and go "nah that's just for dogs" as they have previously. Please sign and share:

That's a wonderful Columbo!

Damn ... saw this too late, missed my shot! 😂

You want to watch a swarm of goslings in the sunshine? Here they are That terrible jumpy-skipping effect on the vudeo is because I had to zoom in quite far (my desire to remain unpecked by parent birds is strong)

Also, and this needs saying too, trans men are men.

Probably have to accept that I'm *too* chronically online / AO3 addled Coworkers were swooning over a passerby/visitor "ooh, those arms, those legs, that beard ... etc", and I just said "that's not for me, I really prefer the twink (ish) aesthetic" They had zero idea what I meant!

The only kind of kids I find cute ... look at their little vest!!

helen lewis has an article in the atlantic today begging everyone to read discworld and I am going to suggest she start by rereading monstrous regiment and think about how that might apply to trans issues

Hmmm?? Hmmm??? *even more agressively* Hmmm????

For Euthanasia

You can tell the weather has changed ... 3 people in this launderette, and we're all doing quilts 😆

Just spent the last ~ 40 hours trying to remember the title of the Discworld Witches/Vampire novel, without actually going to the shelf ... just walked past and caught the *exact correct* red of the cover from the corner of my eye, and it popped *immediately * into my head It's Carpe Jugulum

They're like the hydrant ... cut one head off another two grow Lol ... close ... nearly right 😆

BREAKING NEWS: Baby otters take Power nap before another full day of being adorable.

If the party want a change of leader, just get on with it. It almost doesn't (really) matter who it is at this point. It just matters that the direction of government is clear. If MPs are willing to wait in hope that a plan materializes, I would suggest the problem is more fundamental than the PM.

Them: we're getting rid of swiping! Me: Finally! Why couldn't you have done this when I was using those apps?! Them: ...And replacing it with AI matchmaking! Me: ... Searching. I wanted the ability to *search* back, you absolute dunderheads.

Look at this adorable little fluffer ... feel the serotonin .. feel it!

Happy birthday! This is Diesel, he's never not weird or silly. Here he's decided to judge my reading choices

Ha ... haha ... and indeed, hahaha ... try again fortune cookie, try again 😂

'Real men don't dance?' Bitch, please! 😄

Important info if (like me) you only heard of hantavirus for the first time yesterday!

What I lack in good decision making I make up for with unrelenting self-criticism.

I feel it should probably be either: Tom Bombadil, or Farmer Maggot (sp?), I don't think any of the main characters should be human

The reason you'll never be able to stop LLMs from "hallucinating" is because they don't hallucinate. They output pattern-matched responses, things that appear similar to answers based on a database. It can't know what's in that answer because it doesn't know anything.

Well bollocks! I try not to be superstitious, but after my big 'you're sick too often (no shit sherlock, I'm chronically ill)' meeting at work yesterday, this is a bad omen!

Forced to run the Townships update 😬 What did I get? Inflation! My 30 Townbucks are now 700 Townbucks. This has improved my gameplay in 0 ways, as prices have risen to match. Are there really players so dumb that seeing bigger numbers makes them happy, despite them having no meaning whatsoever?

Things we are welcoming this spring: - getting outside - enjoying the simple things - offering men who tell us to smile to Cybele, the blood-fueled mother goddess, so the violets bloom

Worth a shot 😆

The chiarascuro in this picture is totally making this goat look like some sort of elder forest deity 😄

Just seen a reel of The Other Bennett Sister with the suitors getting thoroughly dunked in the lake ... I do not recall this scene in the novel. I now want to reread the book (and am less inclined to watch the show)

Yf thys skeet doth receive 3,000 reposts then the Tolkien Estate will sue Palantir.
