Absolutely drove me insane when I worked in publishing.
Conversely, I was once asked to recreate a logo a client had lost all assets for, sending me a PDF that had a tiny version. Opened it up, realised it was a vector, copied and pasted into illustrator and dragged the bounding box. Easy money.

I really like Affinity suite, but there might be some problems coming up. They were bought by Canva and promised users things would stay the same. However, they recently took down all product pages and YouTube videos, and are advertising an event at the end of the month. So it's not looking good.

I really like what these guys are doing over the pond.

Frogs together strong.
Inspired by events in Portland.

I’ve only just noticed the birds painted on the window, all wearing bras, with the caption “a flock of tits”, surrounding a caricature of Boris Johnson… also wearing a bra.

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."

Ground up, plasticised, and moulded into Lego bricks to be thrown under the bare feet of her enemies.

A wise decision. I got stuck in Senna’s MP4/6 at Brooklands.

For the evening crowd, I again present this important, potentially life-saving information.

The sprog and I recently learnt about the perils of erasable ink from a tiktokker resting their hot phone on their workbook and someone who laminated their revision notes.
It was suggested that the freezer would bring it back… and it does! Just six minutes between the last two photos.

A note reading “This is a test to see if erased ink from erasable pens can be revived in the freezer.” Accompanied by a couple of scribbled boxes.

The same note, stuck on the inside of the freezer door with all the text erased and some lines erased on the scribbled boxes.

Just minutes later, the note is fully restored.

“Enjoying each other’s company” is 100% a euphemism. He has definitely dabbled.

Listen, we all know it's a long shot, but:

Does anyone have a motorbike I could use for a couple of months?

November - December

It's entirely the wrong amount of time to buy/rent/lease one for so, on the off chance that someone has one just sitting around, could I borrow it?

Bad news, sorry. He’s not keen.
When I say he looks at it, I’m not joking. His garage is attached to his garden office, with glass doors between so he can see it from his desk.

Any particular type? I know someone with a 650R that he literally just looks at, he pootles about town on his Grom instead.
I can't guarantee anything, but I can ask the question.

Experiment successful.

The cast of TV sitcom Cheers, Cliff, Coach, Carla, Sam, Diane and Norm, but they're all been quickly faceswapped with Cher's face. The title above reads 'Chers'.

Did Jeremy Clarkson have a bald brother?

Tow guys. The bald mystery one from Chris's montage, and Jeremy Clarkson. They look kinda similar.
