I really think you used to be able to get canned crab meat. I don't know why I even started thinking about it but I did and I can't find the stuff since I did and started checking. I thought you should all know.

When touring as a solo performer, Phil Collins is able to reproduce asexually in a process known as parthenogenesis.

Go on and explain how that first clause is relevant to the headline/story there, would you, BBC? Am I supposed to be thinking "Oh, well, that explains it."?
A BBC news headline about a carer at a care home being struck off for threatening residents. The sub heading of the story begins "Amina Sarni, who is Nigerian" without there seeming to be any relevance between the story and the carer's nationality. Continuing a seeming trend of BBC news making sure to mention when perpetrators of some misdeed is "foreign" and to not bring up the subjects of nationality or race when white British people are involved.

Nobody seemed to make much of it but there's a moment on Taskmaster NZ 7.1 that might be one of the most impressive task completions ever and I don't think it has been celebrated nearly enough.

Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

I've lost between 3 and 4 stone while I've been ill. My current weight is less than I've ever been since I reached this height as a teen. According to a BMI chart, I'm right in the middle of "healthy weight" for my actual height. No wonder everyone is classed as "overweight", that's crazy

Moba Geographic Photography captures a sand cat with its kittens; the only cat species considered primarily adapted to true desert habitat. Their paws are covered with dense fur that helps insulate them from hot sand and makes their tracks surprisingly faint. #AGoodPlace

Vibe coding replaces the interesting bit - writing code to solve a problem - and replaces it with the boring bit - reviewing someone else's code to see if they've done it right. It's a shit swap.

To celebrate Spooky Season, let's learn why this vampire bat is running on a treadmill. The three species of vampire bats are the only known mammals to be obligate hemophages: 100% of their calories come from blood. The Common Vampire Bat (Desmodus rotundus) prefers mammals... (📷: Giulia Rossi)

As with most places, the least popular flavour at the Houses of Parliament gelato is vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. Proving nobody likes near-politician ice cream.

Drawing of a tall, detached house, of which we can see the front and one side, but rather flat, no proper dimensions. There are four windows, two of which are placed in impossible places, too close to the wall edge or the bottom of the house. The door has a "37" sign and there is a patch in the facade next to the door, showing some brickwork. Behind the house is a tall, thin, green, leafless tree, the branches of which expand out of the picture. All of which is mere background to the focal point: huge green drippy graffiti on the side of the house that says: "Stanley Mothskull builds substandard rocking horses".

Wide shot of the BRITISH MUSEUM. There are suggestions of fascism around the streets - tanks, barricades, an Orwellian 'Big Brother'-style poster on a wall. A voice of a TOUR GUIDE emanates from the museum:

TOUR GUIDE:
So the Tapestry tells acrucial chapter of our nation's history...

2 
[Cut to interior of museum. A long Bayeaux-style TAPESTRY is on display, and the Tour Guide is speaking to a tour group]

TOUR GUIDE [smiling]:
How modern fascist Britain was created. 

3
TOUR GUIDE:
The Tapestry begins here with the 2008 Crash, then austerity, then the AI Crash...

4
TOUR GUIDE:
...and by the end of the room it's just full-on fash. 

5
CHILD IN TOUR GROUP [gesturing to the tapestry]:
What's this middle bit?

TOUR GUIDE:
This is the 2026 Battle of Legitimate Concerns 

6
TOUR GUIDE:
[show a reporter standing next to the Dover protests]
Here's the media saying the government have got to do something about the legitimate concerns...

7
CHILD:
...About the failure of capitalism?

TOUR GUIDE:
No about brown people on boats

8
CHILD:
[pointing at boats crossing the sea on the tapestry]
Are these boats the mega-dinghies?

TOUR GUIDE:
Not all of them

9
[we see one of the boats  is a giant yacht]
TOUR GUIDE:
That one's a superyacht,
carrying money from the American fascists to the British ones.

10
TOUR GUIDE:
You see really it's as much a story of convergence as it is of conflict.

[An alarm sounds in the museum]
DING DING DING DING 

11
TOUR GUIDE:
Ok, tour over everyone 

12
TOUR GUIDE:
It's time for the Two Minute Hate!

[They all leave the museum]

Apparently I'm showing signs of confusion here on day eight of being kept in identical hospital rooms with no visible clocks. There's one nurse that likes to quiz me if she catches me with no visitors or meal clues but I also suspect she says good morning every time to trick me we're starting a new.

I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.

Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.
