I love how Bandcamp's front page has just a live stream of every single thing being bought in real time. It's absolutely no use whatsoever and completely unecessary but is great to see so many people buying things.

Finally getting this god damned tooth out today! I've been in absolute agony for a full week! Looking forward to not living on the four hour cycle of 'when can I take more painkillers?'

As someone who grew up on early 2000s internet, the death of Animate/Flash is a real cultural gut punch!

Started watching The Bad Batch and I'm glad to see animated Star Wars keeping up its long standing tradition of not knowing what children look like.

Oh joy, I get to go BACK to the dentist tomorrow because I am in the most intense pain I have ever felt! 🙃 Was much better off when this tooth was just decaying, this is infinitely worse...

Oof who'd have thought having somebody drilling inside your head for half an hour would lead to so much pain!

In the spirit of embracing AI, I am going to turn up to this, fail spectacularly, then demand they pay me several billion pounds for my efforts
BREAKING: Free AI training will be offered to every adult in the UK, with short courses to teach people how to use simple AI tools effectively in the workplace.

But for real, the amount of money being spent on this could be spent on something real. Up-skill people in something that's needed, not a vile tech bubble that's about to burst...

Dentistry is mad, it's like 'hey let's just start drilling and see where this goes!' and then they charge you a small fortune.

Last week I went on a 'jungle trek' that was a glorified garden path covered in tourists.
Today I went on a jungle trek where we had to run up a muddy, root covered hill to escape a termite nest and didn't see another person for several hours.
Today was well better!
