The p in pee stands for pee

If you wrote a story, in which a sports organisation created a "peace prize" to give to a president whose administration was in the act of committing war crimes, you would either assume it comedy, or think it badly written. But it is reality.

AI steals, and does so inconsistently. It makes things harder for the workforce, when it is forced upon them. Todd Howard can defend his position with empty platitudes, but if he really wante to protect anything, he wouldn't force this shovelware into the development cycle for his games.

Computer, play Novocaine for the Soul.

It's taken so long to get any movement on a tech issue at work, that I am not sure the system will even allow me to reproduce it. Guess it's not getting resolved.

Looks like Paramount are chasing what was popular (and forgettable) 10 years ago. Star Trek is all but eternal, sure the effects may be dated but the story? The message? Eternal. So why are they chasing short term popularity? Because mid-popularity is easier than doing something of value.

Looks like the busy, stressful and long fortnight if over with work, normal service resumes, so I get to take it a little easier for a week or two.

Last year I made it through December without getting hit once. This year, I failed Whamageddon on Day 2. It happens to us all.

I for one, am glad that the mouthpiece of a billionaire is here to tell me what to think, because I was pretty certain that I wanted life to be affordable. But it turns out I was wrong.

And yes, I grabbed a picture just to share on bluesky.

Popped into a second hand bookstore today, and though I was tempted to grab these, I didn't walk away with them.

Did I spend too much money at Dragonmeet? Yes. Do I regret it? Fuck no.

"I was looking for a job, and then I found a job" I think we've found out why you're miserable now.

“SOYLENT GREEN IS MADE OF-“

This is literally what you are doing when you let AI write your book / create your art. The Writing is the journey even on the hard days - ESPECIALLY on the hard days.

Smart year to have kept the cookbooks.

Onlyfans, but it's just me reading in silence.

Didn't watch any films this week, so instead of a film recap, I'm gonna repost a song that's been on repeat in my head.

Well, it's taken me months to get into it, but I'm trying to read again. Let's see if I can finish my current trilogy before the end of the year. I'm a book and a quarter down.

When all you have is reactionary outrage, you can't really exist within the realms of reality.

So.. you can break the projector.

Saw Watch Dogs 2 on sale for cheap for PlayStation, had to get it as the game is still on my list to play. And yet when I try to load the game, I'm assailed with notifications that I cannot to the ubisoft servers. I can only assume the service no longer exists.

Watching the episode of Buffy in season two with Ethan's costume shop, and it just reminds me i want a Buffy prequel set in the Ripper years.

With this entire "Encyclopedia Galactica" thing, it only affirms that Elon Musk cannot create anything new, he's only capable of stealing from those that came before.

End of the week, time to look at Letteboxd for my last four watched!

A co-worker has gotten into the habit of asking me cooking advice. As if I know anything.

Went to see Dogma in cinema. A frankly hilarious film, and it is criminal that no one else was really laughing out loud. I get we're all being mindful of cinema etiquette, but you're allowed to have fun.

Me when I'm down the pub for far too long, and see someone I think I know.

Blog update: I have beem granted Settled Status/Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK! This means I can apply for benefits which will be another huge (mental) hurdle to get through. Until this is done, I'm still short on funds so any help is appreciated: paypal.me/karohemd Reskeets appreciated.

World's richest man is crashing out, spamming the most generic film opinions, all because a peon, a woman at that, dared note that all he ever does is post hatred.

I mentioned a few days ago, that websites are now asking you to subscribe to them if you do not want ads. Ads become increasingly more intrusive, I will not pay you to use your site once a month. And I shouldn't have to wade through a page of bullshit to get to the content I want.

I know it's first world problems, but right now I'm taking issue with the run times of tv shows changing from episode to episode. I can't plan how to end my night when runtimes vary wildly.

Me today: If I buy these snackbars, I can have one when I am hungry and not just eat all the food in the fridge. Me now: Cheese time. Me later: Probably the snackbars.

I also love the idea of employees carrying around a tape measurers to ensure they know when a customer is within 4 feet. Employee to a shopper, "STOP!" (walks to the shopper) "Hold this. (walks back 4 feet. ... deep breath. ... eye contact✔️ big smile ✔️ wave ✔️) "How may I assist you?"

Ahh, finally the weekend, at long last I can waste what little time I have and get nothing productive done.

"Season don't fear the reaper, Nor the wind, the sun, or the rain" Okay, but I am not any of these things.

Editorial cartoon: Don't bread on me. Enjoy :)

This song is currently a hyper fixation.

Now October is over, I can finally catch up on watching all the shows that I paused over the month in favour of horror films.

My scam calls are all coming though with a female Australian accent lately. Decided to call them out on it, asked if they were AI "I'm not a robot" I'm told, which isn't answering the question. Then pressed the voice and they immediately dropped the call.

Me: I'd best get ready and log in at 8:55 to ensure I'm not late to this mornings meeting at 9. The Meeting: 9:30

Ugh, gotta plan dinner. The fact I have to do this daily feels criminal. Probably why I batch cook.

Can't sleep. But at least there's good news coming out of America.

Yesterday there was a knock at my door. An unusual event as I, much like the rest of the world, have a doorbell. It was in fact my neighbours mother. She was bringing a container of scones, and clotted cream, and even offered jam if it were needed. And I worry my neighbours don't like me.

And now Halloween has passed, my own little tradition of watching horror almost exclusively is over, with a total of 74 titles viewed through out the month.
