I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

I asked bargain bin AI tool Copilot to create an image for me today. It refused, claiming that I had reached my limit for how many images it would make me. In a fit of annoyance I told it that it was useless and I want the image.
It changed its mind and created it. Don't hesitate to bully AIs.

Ex-fiancé turned into an anti-vaxxer wanker & conspiracy theory dickhead. He thinks his daughter is unvaccinated. She isn't. I got her vaccinated behind his back before I finally made the right decision to dump him. A child cannot be raised around that kind of stupid bullshit.

I once waited on Boris Johnson at a dinner in Bristol. I poured some of the drip tray into his pint. It's the closest I've come to national service. You're welcome.

Our next door neighbours didn't realise I was in the garden when they tossed a bit of plastic rubbish over the fence. I waited until it was dark and threw it back.

I am 100% certain that Mike Oldfield's guitar solo towards the end of "Heaven's Open" isn't a guitar at all, it's the sound of a hamster being squashed in a garlic press.

The worst part of me having a cold is the headache.
The cold disrupts my sleep to about 2 hrs per night and pressurises my sinuses, which then causes a headache even the most powerful medication does not touch. I have had 48 solid hours of feeling like iron spikes through my skull.

A Florida judge just ordered “Alligator Alcatraz” to shut in 60 days, after Florida and the feds skipped environmental reviews and blew $200M+ siphoned from FEMA on a swamp detention camp that threatens wetlands + endangered species. Waste. Fraud. Abused.

Concept: conservationist metroidvania where the only way to get the best ending is to avoid killing any of the endangered local wildlife, which gets progressively harder throughout the game because each mobility upgrade creates new ways to accidentally explode critters.

I was thinking about popular gameshow The Weakest Link. It's the only one I've seen where not only do the contestants not understand how the strategy the show pushes them into works, but also that strategy isn't even the best way to win the game. It used to make me annoyed when I watched it.
