Had a chat with OH about her brother needing to retrain owing to AI taking his job this afternoon, and I suggested 'electrician'..I get home, go to sleep for an hour, pick my phone up and the first thing I see is this, but oh, no, our phones don't track our conversations and target ads at us. Nope.😳

I find it almost impossible to engage with the minutiae of British politics, because until Trump is dead, and the UK rejoins the EU nothing else really matters to me anymore. 🤷‍♂️
