Apropos of absolutely nothing at all, my novel This Is the Way the World Ends: an Oral History of the Zombie War contains lots of valuable tips to help you survive the collapse of society.

I mean... most of the tips are zombie related, but they're transferable.

My ex's current partner admitted to her that he uses ChatGPT while talking to her online. Just copies in her message and replies with whatever it spits out. He seems like a nice guy, but holy shit I can't get past that. Can't imagine being with someone I couldn't be bothered to talk to.

Finding a Canadian forwarder that works with Mongolia for the sake of a single pair of pants sounds like too much work. I already have lots of pants :)

Seems like a good solution, but it's safer for me right now to just avoid the US entirely. I don't live there (I use an LA freight forwarder to ship to Mongolia), so if something goes askew I can't show up to address the issue.

This is why I haven't ordered anything from Spier & Mackay in a while. I don't trust the US to function well enough as a country to correctly deliver a pair of pants.

I'm a confirmed and happy monogamist. More than one seems fucking exhausting.

My first thought. I'm in a bar. Don't tease.

I'd pay good money for a Tinder Battle Royale feature. 50 women swiped right? Awesome. I'll be at X bar at 11 on Saturday. Come and fight. Doesn't have to be violent. Has to be impressive. Only one can survive.

It's utterly insane that Farage has more influence than ever over British politics when he's the face of its most disastrous decision in recent history. He shouldn't be able to appear in public without being pelted with rotten fruit.

If the Norwegians had a sense of humour, they'd give Obama a second peace prize today.

'space' is also stomach turning. "Ever since I've been in the spiritual growth and healing space..." Shut up, Jade, you sell crystals to idiots.

Or they just have a kink. I hear stories.

Oh god, and here's me politely responding every once in a while, unintentionally resetting the count. I could have been free.

In 2009 I found a spot on a Mongol Rally team with a bunch of strangers on Facebook, and my life changed immeasurably for the better. Travelled the world, met my (now former) wife, settled in Mongolia. None of this would have happened without social media. It's a shame the -s now outweigh the +s.

Some of my happiest memories are of my nightly long walks through the quiet sois of Bangkok, where I turned off my brain and allowed it to figure things out on its own. Always returned home with a new idea or solution, usually with an ice cream. No writer would replace these moments with a machine.
