Hey AI, make me a house. Oh and I shit myself constantly.

Had a big night, now farting out Mordor.

In return for the ability to ask a chat bot for a nice poem about your cat you get higher energy bills and higher sea levels. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

If leaders are not held accountable people stop trusting leadership. Yes you can barrel on to the next lie but people note that & start working to protect themselves (overtly or covertly). Selfishness breeds selfishness by necessity. Or to put it another way: Talk enough shit and no one listens.

I'm of an age where rappers' extravagant spending is less impressive and more concerning.

Trying to decide what #Mario character I would have as a butler. Toad feels like the obvious option but that voice would grate. Thowmp was a consideration (good security & a handy bridge) but wouldn't fit in my car. Currently going with Dry Bones. I feel it's a vibe match, also an anatomical one.

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Thinking about underserved nicknames: I once had 3 puddings when I was 8 and my dad still calls me 'Three puddings cowle'. I am 43.

Everything's an #Xbox... Except some Xbox.

What do #Americans say when they're actually going for a bath?

One greatly understated boon of playing #Chibi-Robo is the significant value of being repeatedly told I'm a helpful little guy. #nintendo

Quick question: now the flags have gone... Where am I?

Trump pressure to hike UK drug prices could cost NHS billions. Corporate profits will increase. NHS budget will buy less. People to pay higher taxes or face public service cuts. To avoid bullying UK Govt must produce cheaper generic drugs. Who governs UK - Govt, Trump, Corporations?

Dear Lord, grant me the wisdom to shave my bits before cleaning the bathroom and the memory to actually do it in that order.

The worst part of living in 2025 is realising that, in terms of success, perfecting one's 'personal brand' trumps actual competence.

It's not worth attempting an eloquent tweet to dissuade people on #Farage. If you count yourself as a patriot & love him spend time thinking about if you should back a man willing to fund people who killed us, wants you to have less basic human rights and tells the US we're a shit show.

#america is making a strong case that this Englishman should climb down from his coffee addiction and commit to a nice cuppa.

💸🏭New research reveals that some of the UK's biggest banks are investing more than ever in fossil fuels. “The UK’s financial sector has a mammoth, outsized impact on the climate – and these fossil fuel investments carry a significant legal risk. 🧵 www.standard.co.uk/business/bus...

Tesla boss Elon Musk will receive $1tn (£740bn) pay package if he hits targets. Already the richest man in the world. Used his wealth to support Trump. Wants to fund Farage and create the same mess in the UK. Classic example of how the rich buy power.

#Immigrants have not crippled our #NHS. Lack of funding has. Tax the billionaires. Stop our politicians being funded and paid by them. I am more scared of Elon Musk than a starving family. You should be too. Consider who has power, and influence, over your life.

Nigel Farage uses private company to pay less tax on £400,000 GB News earnings. Poor attendance record in parliament, collects £94,000 salary+expenses. Has used a trust fund in an offshore tax haven. Previously described people who try to avoid tax as the “common enemy”.

The cool thing about the world getting grim is I always wanted to be a space marine. #warhammer #40k #warhammer40k

Dear red cross vandals, may I assure you: what you're spraying is in #England, surrounded by England, observed by this Englishman...Who is not proud of your actions. Defacement does not assert our democracy. It only forces your viewpoint. If you wish to be classically #English: go apologise.

Even silly string has quiet moments.

Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Clean energy isn’t “woke.” It’s an essential part of our energy future and saves us all on power bills. This administration’s war on offshore wind and solar is just going to raise Americans’ utilities.

The Toxic Avenger is clearing medical debt as marketing for the movie.

We were going to do another big marketing stunt for THE TOXIC AVENGER UNRATED. Instead, Toxie, whose life was upended by crushing medical bills, has joined forces with Undue Medical Debt to erase at least $5 million in un-payable medical debt for those who need it most. Learn more:

Made a fish chowder for the family. All alive at present.

I canceled my #Xbox #gamepass subscription, despite having an Xbox solely for it, as I can't, even indirectly, fund a company like Microsoft working with the IDF. Working with govs is one thing. Working with war criminals is another.

#Google, please, for the love of Earth, make AI searches optional. We should save all that power. Yes, yes I can skip to the 'all' tag and fiddle around... But you know you're wasting our resources... for AI engagement. It's transparent and naughty. Very naughty. Be better than this.

Does anyone else wonder about the meaning of #mario swimming fully clothed? "Mario, listen... Bowser's not going anywhere. You need to live too... At least take your shoes off."

Content idea: #Ambient rise in water levels due to climate change' #sounds (10 hrs)

Totally cool to say 'its fish and chips' for dinner. But organise 'mash and mammal' and people start leaving the table.

Want to start my own AI, from scratch, that's only trained on nuclear physics and Snoop Dog - in equal measure. It's probably my only chance to get a handle on this science shit.

#Trump is a reminder that having too many projects can really annoy your neighbors.

Sad to learn this: "Only 9% of plastic ever made has actually been recycled." - @clientearth.bsky.social But still keen to recycle if only to support the industry in the hope of future investment and growth.

73-80% of people (depending on the country) believe products with recycling logos will actually be recycled if properly disposed of, even though this is not true. Only 9% of plastic ever made has actually been recycled.

It feels wild to have grown up before the internet, lived through its growth, peak, and now its collapse as a handful of billionaires publicly strangle the planet and its people in pursuit of hoarding money they don’t need and can’t even use. Fucking wild ass window of time to experience humanity.

Current theory on what's happening in the world: memory leak.

@robzacny.bsky.social followed you for years, never bothered to reach out... Have you played New Star GP? Nigel Mansell broke into my garage and painted my chassis.

Someone has to speak to Donkey Kong about the difference between being the thing (banana 🍌) and resembling the thing (crystalline rock sculpted to be 🍌). If we all play along his inevitable bowel collapse is on us.

The biggest misconception, I feel, of the strengths of capitalism is that a free market leads to social justice. Companies operate to generate profit, not to preserve society or the environment. We need government to do that.

Plus side of owning the new Donkey Kong game: it's fun. Downside: I now say banana weird.
