Gone to a hotel with work colleagues and I can hear one of them watching Minder in the next room.

A list of people I intend to follow but I don't want them to think it's a cynical attempt to get a follow-back after they liked my post

New phone, who

New Bear Grills sounds good

I'm late to this party but half of the 19m "UK twitter accounts" are gonna be bot farms and 80% of the rest are alt accounts that @twlldun.bsky.social has forgotten the password for.

Or all of our disused alt accounts

Tell me what good films your modern day twelve year old has enjoyed watching (please)

If the UK government had a Culture Secretary, that person would be in a position to take a view about whether child porn on demand was a good thing, or a bad thing. thecritic.co.uk/brin...

I love all my aircraft equally

Me: don't forget to re-seal the bread afterwards Teenager: I was going to anyway The bread, 20 minutes later:

GET YOUR BESPOKE CROSSWORDS HERE. Do you know someone who'd love a themed crossword puzzle as a birthday or anniversary present? You almost certainly do (in this country you're never more than 10 feet away from a #crossword geek). People seem to like 'em. richarddsmyth.com/custom-cross...

Shut up I don't spoil my son

Being too ill to work for a few days has really drawn my attention to how much "doing my job properly" has been interfering with my shitposting.

[choral music plays]

Guardian here channeling a BBC radio presenter not wanting to show commercial bias and making sure to let the listeners know they don't HAVE to go to grok for their illegal misogynistic and CSA materials.

I got chiles They’re multiplying

Although it does carry the wider point that men* can keep and historically have kept women out of public spaces, forums, workplaces and indeed parliaments by behaving badly and they do win by doing this. *Yes not all men

A lesson from history

The consensus:

When you defrost your freezer do you: 1. Go gung ho with forbidden tools 2. Use forbidden trays of warm. Water Or 3. Follow the manufacture's instructions ?

Oh no I am wrong how unusual

And I have watched this film and still can't remember what Ronin are. I only remember that it has Sean Bean in it and you can decide for yourself whether he probably survived til the end of the film.

Services this app need: - group chats - turn off re-posts for terrible re-posters - notification for when someone off your wishlist creates an account here

We generally need to link up the skillsets of people who can hack things and people who have the ability to be funny after something has been hacked, two very distinct and separate communities

Now you're all doing starter packs again so I'm telling myself "well if I'd actually tried then I definitely would have won a prize"

Astonishing both-sidesing in The Times

It's a nothing much speculative story (because available quantities are not necessarily a reflection of stock and also who cares) but someone in the comments pointed out she's holding the jar tongs upsidedown which is shocking for those of us who thought she made a million jars of jam herself.

The thing about this is "waah but it's really hard to make it get things right you don't understand the uses and limitations of AI" is all very well and good but stop forcing it on us if it doesn't do anything we can use. Come back later when it works without these phenomenal limitations.

Me: ok I concede, I am too ill to do anything except lie there Life: well you will have four kids in the house two of whom need lifts home, all of whom need feeding and also it's bin night. And there's a storm.

The Keminaissance:

Illness status: wearing a fleecy robe that makes me look like father Christmas and having chicken broth for breakfast

Please let this mean they'll drop all the Grinch-themed marketing this year.

The crowbarring of AI "tools" into every app is that I can't even search my WhatsApp contacts without being dripfed lies and clickbait.

I usually find them quite annoying and skim them in the same way I skim excessive description. But in books I've listened to rather than read, I've enjoyed some epigraphsn (especially Joe Abercrombie ones) and also have learned to appreciate description more.

I wish once was enough times to tell a website you don't want to download their app instead.

Fatima's next job could be in notarising, etc.

I usually stop watching stuff before the end and apart from that I can't remember many endings. I think I liked the end of Better Call Saul but I don't remember what happened. And I liked the song at the end of Breaking Bad.

She's more fleece now than man. Twisted and evil.

Have read 1/4 of the replies and discovered I might as well not have bothered with GCSE history. Or learning anything else since.

I had 3 minutes before an 11am zoom so I started writing a difficult email, and remembered about the meeting at 11.16, then realised it was at 11.30. I was ready at 11.31 and looked up the meeting invite to find out that it's Tuesday today and the meeting is tomorrow. Follow for updates on this.

Civilian is crumbling. Awaiting a statement from Sir Kier on this.

Hope these fireworks are finished before 10pm, I wanted an early night

Ok here's my list for NYE, all about things I think, experiences I've had and stuff about me I feel you should read this evening:

I listened to the Taylor Swift album 1989 loads of times

Go round the outside.

I was once very taken aback when my reflection in a charity shop mirror went in the opposite direction to me, and turned out to be a real living person dressed a bit like me and not a reflection at all.

Recommendations wanted again...I'm looking for British thrillers by women that are well written and ideally not a series. What should I be reading?

Father, may I eat the delicious 𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖇𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖊𝖓 𝖃𝖒𝖆𝖘 𝖒𝖊𝖆𝖙

This makes it sound like they've uncovered a drink-driving crime ring
