I don't want a Baerskin hoodie, I don't want a Ridge Wallet, I don't want a Wellness band, I don't want a goddamn AI girlfriend, I don't want to download mobile slop games, I don't have multiple pensions I want to combine.
"Tactical" clothing is a gimmick, unless it's Milsurp.

People being mean about the lovely sport's editor's comments to the Jags coach after their wildcard loss.

Sometimes my only joy is watching a millionaire shatter the jaw of an objectively worse millionaire.
But I'll take it.
Remember kids: the line between bravery and stupidity is very thin.

I'm rather poor. & Moderately to severely disabled So I get help with some things: cut rate water, discount (slow) internet, income support. Support with local (council) tax.
But if I started to earn just the right amount, that would all go, & that extra income would get swallowed up.

I just heard the other day that someone in my circle earns £2 grand plus a month training AI models.
I've been a copywriter for 12 years and I've never made that in a month.
This is an ethical quandary.

I'm no fan of Mr Charlie Kirk.
I wouldn't have minded him getting a solid punch in the face but a bullet to the neck while on stage? In front of his kids?
Is this the future of political dialogue in the U.S.?

About an hour ago some guy buzzed my flat just "wanting to get in." He says.
"Sorry who are you looking for?" Asks I.
"I just want to get through. If that's alright." He replies.
No dude! Not alright!
