Don't hear a lot of women talking about how hot Starmer is these days do you. He really fucked it there as well

Taken the day off to make the most of the weather. Got out and walked for six miles in beautiful sunshine, surrounded by nature, looking at various birds, warm air on my skin, listening to some of the most miserable music ever written. Magnificent

15 years ago vs today, if anyone wants to know what my chin used to look like

Just got knocked flat on my arse by two big dogs, a proper both legs in the air pratfall. Been nearly six weeks living in Hannah Spencer's Islamo-Marxist regime and she has failed to ban these beasts. A fraud

They'll tell you it can't be done. "You can't get worthwhile long-range Barn Owl pics at 10x zoom on an old 2019 phone!", they'll say. You have to cut these people out of your life

So proud of my community this morning, we held our nerve despite everyone telling us a vote for the Greens would let Reform in. They'll be talking all kinds of shit about us in the coming days but I promise you we're just regular people who want something better than Starmer

One difficult thing about this by-election for me personally is that Hannah Spencer looks kinda like this one ex of mine from when I was 20, who I have fond memories of apart from the vivid recollection that I kept emailing her with Tool lyrics in my signature and explaining them

Announcing contentious policies, defending them, and then climbing down is such a great way of ensuring you piss off everyone on all sides of the debate and lose the maximum amount of votes 👍

Decided to stop putting off a job I've been meaning to do for months, and restring my acoustic guitar. Now, instead of a guitar with six horrible sounding strings, I have one with four very nice sounding ones 😎

This is amazing. I laughed out loud www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
As 32-year-old Rich points out, though, "it's not like using ChatGPT guarantees success".
When he met someone in a bar one Friday night and swapped social media handles, he asked AI what his next move should be.
ChatGPT discerned that sending an initial message on Monday midmorning would set the right pace. "Then it gave me some options for what the message could be," says Rich.
"Keep it light, warm, and low-stakes so it reads as genuine interest without urgency," the bot advised. "Something like: Hey Sarah, still laughing about [tiny shared moment/reference if you've got one] - good to meet you!" Rich went back and forth with ChatGPT until he felt they'd hit upon exactly the right message ("Hey Sarah, it was lovely to meet you") but sadly she never replied, he says. "It's been two weeks now."

I find it bizarre that we're forced to accept live-streamed genocide and are told that it's illegal to be opposed to it, but anyone who says the obvious about these guys is at best putting their account at risk and at worse potentially facing legal charges. and the obvious is: we need to kill them

When I found out that Melvins did a 36-track, 2.5-hour album of acoustic versions, I wondered how they'd rearrange their heavy distorted rock songs to suit the acoustic guitar. Turns out they didn't bother, and just played them all exactly the same way youtu.be/mhq50L8UogU?...
