when AI companies go bankrupt

Why have we allowed socially inept wrong’uns to completely remodel our world?

That's... numberwang?

So on Saturday morning, Mum & I planned a quick visit to urgent care to sort out her bump on the head, getting there early to beat the rush of Saturday morning sport & gardening mishaps, then fish & chips for lunch after. We ended up in A&E til 9pm when Mum was admitted overnight. 1/3

Any dipshit who wants to live in a "monoculture" never gets to taste this.

‘Father’ and ‘dad’ are synonyms. ‘Figure’ and ‘bod’ are synonyms. But, a ‘father figure’ and a ‘dad bod’ aren’t exactly the same thing…

Friendly reminder that I forgot rum rations (The Tot) used to be a thing in the navy so I thought Nathan Evans was singing about how sailors now get an extra beer a day "because it stops the thoughts".

'Michael's Mum' on Facebook just described the NDIS atm as clearly as I have seen it done. I also think some honesty, transparency and integrity from government would go a long way to repairing trust and the system itself.

I didn't even know R'yleh qualified for the World Cup this year.

Having just spent the better part of 2 days in Rockhampton Base Hospital A&E, I'd chip in to the production fund for this but for full effect it's gonna have to be a REALLY late night show. (Mum is home and on the mend. She says thank you for the well-wishes from the strange internet people!)

12 hours in urgent care & A&E today because Mum had a fall. Have seen the full spectrum of the great Australian public, including the one who took a shit on the floor. (Mum's staying in overnight just in case but will be fine.)

I was thinking about former prime ministers and judging them on their achievements, and I've concluded that Bob Hawke being able to neck a beer faster than a tradie puts him well ahead of Tony Abbott, who ate a white onion like an apple. Harold Holt is the winner tho for just walking into the sea.

So over the weekend I'm doing an audition tape for a proper ssrious theatre thing. Should I take it seriously, or accept I haven't a hope in hell of getting the role and go Full Unhinged? (The only potential hinge being my ability to remember the words well enough to get 1 clean take.)

9 things about me age: very gender: not really sexuality: no thanks height: tall enough that my feet reach all the way to the ground eye colour: yes, they do favourite food: made by someone else favourite game: venison favourite show: Ridgelands or Biggenden favourite animal: this one cat I knew.

Demon on shoulder: get fish & chips for tea. Angel on other shoulder: cooking at home is cheap & healthy. Demon: skip the chips and it's basically carb-free. Get scallops too. Angel: Grilled fish. Demon: can't eat grilled fish with your fingers ya grub. Angel: fuck it, throw in some prawn cutlets.

Hello, sharks. Today I am asking for the arc of the moral universe to bend quicker

MEAA condemns the continuing treatment of journalist Sarah Martin by One Nation leader Pauline Hanson. Journalists must be able to do their job without fear of intimidation, exclusion, or personal attack. This is a moment for us to stand together and hold the line on press freedom. meaa.io/3SbzRlK

Black cats are a different breed. They're smarter, sweeter, more cunning, and have completely different textured fur from other, lesser cats. And it has to be 95% minimum black coverage to count - my 50/50 black and white dude is a menace sent by the devil who doesn't want him back.

Where have we seen this before? My @smh cartoon.

Heads up for any Victorian peeps (the state, not the era) who have a burner for safety reasons. Turn it off today pls.

Keep your cold, dead, thieving hands off my r/nosleep blorbos.

Pauline cartoon from earlier this year in @australia.theguardian.com

An aspiring Telegraph columnist is “thrilled” that her four-year-old daughter is autistic, due to all the hand-wringing articles she can get out of it about her horror at not getting exactly the child she wanted, throughout the daughter’s teens and even well into her adult life.

Sarah Martin is an incredible journalist and Hanson personally attacking her for very standard questions shows just how down the Trump normalisation we are. And it will come to all journalists who do their job.

#BREAKING 🚨 GetUp has claimed responsibility for the protest banner that interrupted Pauline Hanson's National Press Club address, saying "it was us" The banner read: "I opposed a pay rise for workers...while I took a $100,000 pay rise for myself"

How do you sell a chicken to a man that is hard of hearing? (Yelling) WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY A CHICKEN?

A #cartoon summary of the story I'm reporting on the radio in Hong Kong this arvo (with #ausmusic from Genesis Owusu & Dennis Tek): - the skips join with Turkish-Australians, African-Australians and other migrants to celebrate, ignoring the tiny, loud racists - cheers @fionakatauskas.bsky.social

I got told off by a biblically accurate speed camera for this content.

Apparently we're doing this now?

Cronulla?

Wow, according to this, Clive Palmer will abolish hunger for 8 million people for...$50 a head 🤑

Obviouslt they only made 1 season of Good Omens and then decided to leave it at that. It'd be insane to suggest making any more.

The Goodies last season after the move to a different channel was... not *bad*, but somehow a completely different show despite having all the same people + elements.

"NeW mUSiC ISn'T aS goOd As OLd MusIC!!!" No, you've just put old music on a pedestal. There are a thousand new bands out there writing music just as great - if not better - than all of the old ones, you just haven't heard them yet.

It's 1996. I don't understand what the US is doing in the Middle East. Pauline Hanson is talking shit. I feel like the only kid not using a computer. It's 2026. I don't understand what the US is doing in the Middle East. Pauline Hanson is talking shit. I feel like the only kid not using AI.

Every time someone on here talks about LINUX I keep thinking "I don't remember this from the strip or cartoons, that kid with the blue blanket is doing all this?!" Then about that time my brain corrects me, but I lost interest and had already scrolled on

I bought that so-called "official figurine" of E.T. fishing and it turns out it was just a faux gnome.

Elon Musk is a TRILLIONAIRE 😍

Sorry to be all 2003, but I just lost The Game.

I'm not saying I'm tired but I wanted to look up a video so I opened google maps.

Problem is "writing" is a million different things. Something people read for leisure? Go nuts. Cram in so many $10 words you need a forklift to turn the pages. Information people NEED to function in society? Centrelink forms, voting information, privacy policies? Easy as possible. No excuses.

Can someone give me the TLDR on the #DoctorWho latest pls? I'm far too old for this shit.

We have been working on getting several of our prints restored and remounted. On the back of a fairly normal view of York we found this. Everyone, meet buff Satan.

god this app is gonna be insufferable next week when G’hzarxl the Rancorous plunges Earth into the aeon of Endless Night

They should invent an NDIS support coordinator capable of coordinating supports. I haven't had a cleaner - which I'm funded for tyvm - for eight fucking months. I'm not looking for a rare specialist. A fucking cleaner!!
