I had a joke about Downsian theory but it's a bit middle-of-the-road.
I've got a joke about the Shirt of Nessus but I'm not sure I can pull it off

I know it's shallow, but sometimes you do just want people to ask you on Monday what you got up to at the weekend.

Today I am grateful to the onlooker who flattered me by thinking I could be in the West Highland Way Race and cheered, a non-jobsworth bus driver, and clouds. Buachaille Etive Mor down and first fastpack done.

Are there any alternatives to Google out there that provide a better search? The last few years I've felt result quality has been sliding and now the answer-by-numbers AI response at the top is just getting too much. Time for it to go the way of AltaVista. Recommendations welcome.

Severance is like... Loki meets Waiting for Godot? Everyone on my feed has been raving about it, but it was not what my flu-addled brain was looking for. I stuck with the Simpsons as I glugged my Lemsip. Sorry, social media, I have failed you.
