Robert Ramsay @robertramsay.org · 5hWhen people ask "What is the meaning of life?" it's a trick question. Life has no intrinsic meaning. Meaning is a human thing and it's up to us to generate it. 040

Then when I got my mother's telly (also a Samsung), I had to tell it 'NO' a million times when it wanted to connect to the internet. I think one is now stuck with buying a "SmartTV" and just telling it 'NO' to everything. 130

Robert Ramsay @robertramsay.org · 29/09/2026The first exam I failed (well, I got a D), I slowly realised I couldn't do the first three questions and a wave of heat coasted up my body, causing my brain swell up inside my skull and push against my eyeballs.
