I suspect it won't be to everyone's taste, but the Beef and Dairy network podcast has some hilarious moments.

Close-up portrait photograph of an elderly man shot from below as he looks upward, taken outside a cafe on Daunt Square in Cork, Ireland in 2004. The image captures his weathered face in profile, showing deep wrinkles and aged skin texture in rich detail. He wears rectangular glasses with metal frames that catch reflections of buildings and sky, and a dark flat cap. Wisps of grey hair are visible at the back of his head. He wears a checked shirt. The photograph has a dark vignette around the edges with dramatic lighting emphasising the contours of his face.

A Four-Legged Historian https://inphotos.org/2025/03/04/a-four-legged-historian/
Street scene: Two people admiring a tiny dog next to the information panel about Cork city history. The small dog is on a leash. The hoarding is around Bishop Lucey Park, in Cork. Text visible: "Bishop Lucey... area of the hill... of Cork city. In 1997, an archaeological excavation of a site just outside the present-day park found evidence of a timber fence built from oak, with archaeologists estimating that the oak was cut down sometime between 1115 and 1122."

I really don't like it when games on Android don't allow you to back out to exit.

I have to bring up the task list and kill it from there.

I remember commenting on Terraria years ago and they fixed that, but Balatro is another one to do it. A comment on Reddit says it's a one line fix in a […]

Still have power here. The wind has died down but I can still hear it. That was some rain last night. Our cat went out in it and refused to come in for a few minutes, and then I noticed something had to be tied down some more.

There were bangs out the front from the street. Will have to […]
