On closer examination, this job doesn't look quite as fun as the name might suggest

I like it when it interrupts a show I'm watching with an ad/trailer for that very show

Seeing as we're all doing it, here are a few shots of the almost eclipse from the south of France.

Watched Tron: Ares last night. A mind-bending, high-tech fantasy that imagines a world where Jared Leto willingly interacts with a woman only 12 years his junior

Just saw some Facebook auto subtitles describe Rage Against the Machine as Ray Jacobson Machine, just in case anyone is looking for a cool new nom de plume

It's just a refusal to play his game. It's reform's safest seat, so he probably wins whatever happens. This way he has to do it surrounded by mental minority candidates rather than anyone serious. Makes him look small.

While I applaud the message, it's hard to overstate how comprehensively Greenpeace have fucked up this Simpsons meme
The familiar Simpsons meme where Bart says x is the worst thing to ever happen to him, with Homer correcting him that it's only the worst thing so far. For some reason Greenpeace have totally messed up the format, totally ruining the rhythm of the joke

Had the same on our local paper. Reform clearly has a healthy ad budget and the press is happy to help them spend it
Front page of Abergavenny Chronicle newspaper with a full page wraparound advert for Reform

Genuinely amazed at this advertising on our local paper. I know print is struggling, but it feels like absolutely torching a reputation for short term gains

Our school just lets them bring in their favourite book and wear pyjamas, which is considerably less stressful

Don't forget Face's white Corvette, with the red stripe to match the A-Team van. It's very important that outlaw paramilitary units have strong branding

I mean, maybe some commentary from a game he played or coached? A tribute from a contemporary? Nah, let's just have some audio of Mark Chapman saying Gabby had to leave the studio for a family emergency before quickly segueing back to Man City v Brighton

What's most striking is just how pathetic it makes him look. Imagine being the actual President of the USA and giving even the tiniest shit about any of this.

But isn't this an artifically low price that doesn't cover ChatGpt's actual compute costs? What happens when it stops being a loss leader?

Reason to ignore AI search results number 1,208,973,652. Here's Google, giving me innacurate info about the Women's Euros , then contradicting itself when I click through the link it provided and somehow making it sound like its my fault.
An AI response to a search query about sport in Wales, stating that Wales was host of the UEFA Wome's Euro 2025 competitionAn AI response arrived at by clicking on the link provided in the first response, which directly contradicts what the AI told me last time
