Never would i have thought that my samsung watch would struggle so much with my samsung phone For my next watch I'm sacking off a digital one and getting a vintage analogue one. That will be the last watch I'll ever need

Had a final destination moment on Friday but wasn't able to get it off the dashcam Driving along a 60mph road in heavy rain and the dark. Oncoming truck minding his own business and then a car coming head on, on the wrong side of the road. Just managed to swerve to the left at the last moment

Doorbell camera has been offline for a few days as the kids never charged it 5 minutes after it's plugged in we get the first notification. And this is why they don't like it and hate charging it

Congratulations to the US on becoming a kleptocratic monarchy, 250 years after gaining independence from royalist colonisers. You must be *so* proud that your new king exemplifies, as William Burroughs said, the "American dream to vulgarize and falsify until the bare lies shine through". #America250
