I asked AI a question and the episode was wrong. It led me to watching an episode of #GreysAnatomy I had no intention of watching. But it was an entertaining episode, so, I guess that’s OK.

But…infallible…AI is not

Am I right in thinking Kickstarter are currently having a Kickstarter to help support the future of Kickstarter?

For Kickstarter…
Kickstarter staff have been on strike for 21 days, in a bid to protect their working week and win a minimum salary.

These are small, reasonable asks for an outstanding team that have helped to bring countless new pieces of independent art into the world.

Had a dream the other night about #Canada and travelling there. Was a lovely dream. And for some reason I flew there on a lovely plane with only a few passengers.

I had this one dream a few months ago about taking a long distance flight I still remember. So weird it’s stuck with me.
Looking forward to #Edinburgh in a few days
The person who came up with the adverts for #Currys was definitely taking something when they suggested them
Another four sales yesterday for #TeamHandH as eBay builds momentum. And a potential partnership with another local charitable organisation on the horizon. It’s great to be able to source items, list items and then sell/ship them in just a couple of days! Real sense of satisfaction.
Did you know we sell on eBay? Donate, purchase, recycle - all under one digital roof. And we welcome YOUR support. ♻️

During Harvest we're also looking forward to Christmas. Food banks are struggling under the weight of persistent and deepening poverty. We are collecting for our 2025 #ReverseAdvent Calendar between November 1st and 30th 2025. 

Thank you for your continued support. #TeamHandH
And if you’re the kind of person who dodges fares on a regular basis, you’re unlikely to be phased by their approach - and they’re unlikely to actually stop you.

Why risk confrontation?

So really, it’s only the people who are honestly buying tickets every single day who are getting checked.
“Tickets and passes please!”

The familiar sound of inspectors on my morning Metro, constantly - almost every single journey - asking me to provide proof of a valid ticket.

I wouldn’t mind so much if not for the fact I see so many people flaunting and dodging the fares.
At the moment I’m currently engrossed in #LANoire and looking to potentially platinum it. I’m playing on #PS4 and have come to the conclusion that this is the console I prefer above many others, both before and after it. It just sits with me better than most.
A few years ago in a previous job some of my colleagues used to offer condolences as we all arrived on a typical Monday morning. Then on Tuesday they’d say “thank God it’s not Monday”

But the thing is, if you adopt that mindset, you start to believe it. Monday should be seen as a new beginning.
Umm….OK….

Im with the frogs! 🐸

The RetroMania Wrestling DLC drops on Switch on October 16 (Americas) and October 20 (the rest of the world)! 💪
@daemzero.bsky.social also I like Arkham Asylum, love it - and I am in agreement that I hate City by comparison and just don’t have any interest in replaying Asylum. It was too much!
@daemzero.bsky.social listening to Game Scoop 828 - bad decisions - when Resident Evil 3DS Mercenaries wouldn’t let you delete the save data so it was designed never to be traded in! That comes to mind. As always, loved the show.

Was waiting for my name to be mentioned but such is life.
I encounter people in life who do the bare minimum amount of work needed, absolutely bare minimum, yet it doesn’t bother them when they’ve files and jobs piling up. I do everything I can not only to finish my work but proactively due more, and in the end, I give myself a harder time for it.
Great photography. I was looking for something which reminded me of my holiday to NYC in March, somewhere I knew I’d been or a street I’d walked. And this is it.

The Harvest Supermoon rises behind the Statue of Liberty and the skyline of Brooklyn as the sun sets in New York City, Monday evening #newyork #newyorkcity #nyc #moon #harvestmoon #supermoon
Since going to visit #NewYorkCity earlier this year it’s made me realise just how connected we all are. I felt living in #Newcastle that I was on a different planet to #NYC I hoped that and America would be a different and magical land…but it was not. The cracks were visible, the tides that bind us
I’ve been wearing earplugs travelling to work (I sleep in them so just don’t take them out during my morning commute) and as an alternative to music I find them quite useful to drown out a lot of the loud noise in the morning and help me better adjust.

Plus I can avoid the random nonsense.
