Yet another migrant from the Other Place. Mainly dull, with occasional outbreaks of sweary irritation. Not American, but from somewhere with a broadly similar language. Sorry if that disappoints you. Profile picture was quite literally drawn by a 5yo.

Man in a gilet stood on platform 12 gives up on reading the display and asks ChatGPT out loud if he is on the right platform for his train. I don’t want to be dramatic about it but Eratosthenes figured out the circumference of the Earth using a stick and knowledge of a distant well.

Everything is like have you watched this, or watched that? "another day, another shitshow", JK Rowling, fucking Strictly Dancing or baking or how I did a murder or "I'm in a cult", and Trump and Bradley Walsh and Romesh Ranganathan and "get ready with me to have a lobotomy" and I am so sick of it x

Saw a quote saying that the chains affected didn't upgrade the firmware, which may well be true, but perhaps considers the problem from the wrong angle

The dog steps arrived yesterday. They are well designed and well made. The dog, peace be upon her, is ignoring them completely. FML

In further evidence of the easy life the dog has, and because it took her about 10 minutes to climb onto the bed during the night, a set of dog steps is now on its way.

Earlier there was rugby for the U10 members of the household. This was good (although I am not sure it should be 25°C on the pitch on 4 October 🥵). Later there will be curry.

I am a barrister who once spent time seconded to the CPS serious crimes unit making charging decisions. Today, you can pretend to be one too and work through the decision-making framework in a very serious case. The police have multiple suspects in custody and the phone just rang. 👨 👨 👨 👨 👨 📱 👮‍♀️ 🚨

I think the most important news from history today is that it’s the 39th anniversary of the (US) release of The Princess Bride—and what better way to mark the day than remind ourselves of Cary Elwes’ story about André the Giant and the enormous, life-altering, earth-shaking fart?

It's got to be the pandemic, at least to some extent. People lost their minds over all sorts of things and not much has improved since

This one here, pictured on Sunday night hoping for a piece or two of doner meat, has been given a clean bill of health by the vet. This is excellent news.
