Awake for an hour. Can report someone has intermittently tried to start the dawn chorus since around 6 am but only half heartedly and no one else was having it. Only now is there a more persistent attempt.

It’s a lil comic! 

Panel 1: a smiling man holds up a tablet playing a video of a cat on a unicycle playing a drum. “Look! A cat drummer on a unicycle!”

Panel 2: frowning onlookers smugly say “it’s just AI.”

Panel 3: the cat, at home, looks hopeful. “So? Did they like it?” The man, sad, says, “your talent fell upon the worst possible era.”

I realised today that it’s been a long, long time since I’ve heard anyone making the case for safe and legal routes on the broadcast news. The ludicrous idea that irregular migration is somehow the most serious issue facing the country is all you ever hear.

I am not a military expert, but I don’t think I would put an ammunition store in the middle of my capital city, and even if I did, I don’t think I would tell the world about it.

And we were due an update from a Head of Service re LGR which was blown out of the water by the news yesterday. And it wasnt even "breaking news" when the BBC had an article on it in actual advance of AR's statement to Parliament and no one is even commenting on that. The "pause" is huge!

Anyways we had an in person team meeting for the first time in 6 months so my manager got sandwiches from Costco and I had one of those bits of a spinach wrap with cheese and pickle and dropped pickle down the front of my white top. Standard. Should have stuck to the kettle chips and hummus with.

Used a self service till at Sainsbury's today. Needed help multiple times because it either rang up the wrong price (three times) or didn't like the weight of the item once scanned "please remove last item" including on identical tins of tomatoes (mutti are on special) and baked beans (resilience)

It’s one thing about the ai stuff that’s really left me behind - I have to use the Google stuff, I sometimes need to use a bot for customer service, but for someone who isn’t compelled to use LLMs for work, I just don’t see the appeal? It feels weird to me to see it as inescapable.

Incalculable - unless you can build in the by their very nature unpredictable variables of the cat liked this last time so might or might not reject it/ which includes the x flavour she would be sick on, or was that in only brand y. Maffs! Fizzics.

I've been known to resort to the calculator on my phone when they don't put an offer in a comparative terms (e.g by price per 100 whatever it is measured by weight/volume etc). Can usually manage the mental maffs but when it might be concentrated v non concentrated fabric conditioner it's per wash!

My first cartoon for adults for a while, on the Dover business
A one panel cartoon showing three male-looking figures in all black wearing balaclavas, so you can only see their eyes. Below it says: 'Spontaneous' protest. The figure on the right is saying: 'OMG, SO EMBARRASSING, WE ALL WORE THE SAME OUTFIT!

Baffled at lack of arrests. Police statement saying it was a spontaneous protest does not appear to match the facts, and it's now a criminal offence to cover your face at a protest since 29/6/26? See link: IANAL but: Police powers: Protests - House of Commons Library share.google/KLg3HOaKbYhi...

Helpful reminder that the vast majority of middle England home-owning "Con15/15/19" voters who think immigration is too high will also see these guys as thugs and their anger at the state response will likely be at how slow and ineffective it is.
