They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

Oh and of course
I eat my peas with honey
I've done it all my life
It makes the peas taste funny
But it keeps them on the knife
I eat my peas with honey
I've done it all my life
It makes the peas taste funny
But it keeps them on the knife
Which lines of poetry live rent-free in your head?

Nobody leave the room.
Everyone listen to me.
We had ten pairs of scissors at half past two,
And now there's only three.
Seven pairs of scissors disappeared from sight.
Not one one of you leaves till we find them
We can stop here all night!
Scissors don't lose themselves, melt away or explode.

Nobody needs to be on X. Nobody needs to see what’s on X. It’s a cesspit of racism, xenophobia and misinformation. And it refuses to comply with even the most basic of standards.

It's also: you don't know who is going to become what. A society more confident in itself would believe a little bit more in its ability to make anyone thrive and give back.
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

As a longtime fan of HOW IT'S MADE, I can't say I'm surprised exactly by how much any manufactured good is essentially handmade but it's still striking to see how much of even high tech stuff like camera lenses is "a worker with a paintbrush and screwdriver moves stuff around by hand"

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

The grandmother clock just ticks away,
In cloud castles it's warm they say.
The city is full of endless rain,
Stray cats and strangers, a constant pain
The city was gloomy, angry, and blue,
Everything wrong, nothing to do.
I dreamed of fixing the world one day,
But thank God, I didn’t know the way

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.

lads it’s not AI. AI cannot make jokes like that and the recipe author has more than established his credentials and sense of humour. fuck AI but that doesn’t just mean ‘something I couldn’t come up with myself’

Recently at a Q&A, the chair asked me an excellent question: Why do you push so hard against the idea of a ‘nature cure’ when moments in your book Drystone - A Life Rebuilt might look like exactly that?
The answer is simple.

The mechanics are very simple: the growth mandate of these companies, vs the profit structure of gambling as a trade for as far as we've known it (it comes mostly from problem users) means your customer acquisition is by definition trying to create problematic use bsky.app/profile/rory...
Dodgy blokes in the backs of pub who'd break your legs provided better pastoral support of problem gamblers than betting companies

100% correct about the value of the ‘Irish exit’. It always amazes me when people leaving early insist on making it extremely clear that they are leaving early. No one cares! Just go.

I think one of the worst / most dangerous things about the chat bots is they are always there. Meaning people don't get bored or find new hobbies
