I hated it until I was 25 and Euro 96 was on, then I realised it was incredible drama with friends. But only sometimes. Tonight is one of those times.

I do *not* miss quiet coach rage. I was returning from a wedding in 2011 when a hen party got on the quiet coach. The loud type. With inflatable penises. I had a raging hangover. They harassed an old man with one of the penises, then did a quiz, example question "Is it in yet?"

it's anything that causes inflammation with me, the primary causes being poor sleep, white flour, enjoying some cheese, bending down too much, not bending down enough, whether the bin men took the garden waste, owls

Newsletter: Goldman Sachs has called BS on Generative AI, and I believe that it's time that everybody follows suit - generative AI is unreliable, unsustainable, requires an entire rebuild of America's power grid, and is most decidedly not the future.

yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler
