Can't say fairer than that! Making me reminisce and hanker for trips abroad when I'd buy bowls of noodles from people with little carts for a quid or two, and it just being solidly delicious and - like you say - totally satisfying.

I have literally pulled the car over to chastise a passenger who could not stick to their own harmony in important duets such as this. And I'd do it again, I tell you.

"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!" Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.

I WOULD believe. And now I wanna do it with you, immediately. Standing back to back and everything. I once sang it with a pal at a drunken baby shower, whilst inhaling helium. It was powerful.

They are both absolute bangers. And perfect for karaoke, especially with friends you can overpower with volume and harmony. See also: Islands in the Stream, Knew You Were Waiting, and I Know Him So Well.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Cannot be emphasised enough that Trump II will plausibly cause the kind of death count we associate with the worst dictatorships of the last century. Unspeakably bad that he came to be president of the world's most powerful nation.

My dad used to work with Ted Bundy at the University of Utah and every Friday my dad would say, "See ya Monday-Bundy" and I can't imagine how much Ted actually thought about murdering him for

That’s Life! was just incredible. Its two most famous moments are a man being movingly celebrated by the now grown Jewish children he got out of Nazi Germany & a dog saying “sausages”. No other programme has ever had that range.

“Authorities take woman to hospital after multiple failed attempts to kill her so that once she’s recovered they can try to kill her again” would be the most American headline ever if only she was also to be billed for the treatment.

Repealing Thatcher's ban on public ownership of water companies is only meaningful if Andy Burnham brings water into public ownership Over 9 in 10 of us want our water in public ownership. Let's do it, starting with Thames Water

Screenshot of Independent article that includes a quote from Cat Hobbs that says, "Cat Hobbs, director of public ownership campaign We Own It, repeated calls for Thames Water to be nationalised urgently. She said: “Repealing the ban on public ownership of water companies is a welcome step in the right direction, but it is far from meeting the scale of the crisis. “Thames Water should have been in special administration yesterday. “It is in £20 billion of debt and teetering on the brink of financial collapse. “The only option to keep it privatised is to hand it over to a group of US hedge funds. “How can this Government be serious about their promise to reverse Thatcher’s legacy of privatisation, if they are not urgently bringing it into public hands?”"

Omigod, this is the most heartwarming story possible! Backpack (bear 89) is the son of the 2019 winner of Fat Bear Week, Holly (bear 435). In 2007, he injured his foot & a practice of riding on momma's Holly's back had a new meaning: he was mobility-restricted while it healed. So Holly moved him.

From DISCVR blog's Facebook page, a momma bear & a yearling cub on her back in the shallow water. I think the background has been swapped out, and I can't rule out some AI use there? God, Facebook has become the social media for AI slop : (

The title of the article, which I link below, is "How Bear 89 earned the name Backpack"
