People simply existing is not open for debate or "strong views" - they exist, end of. How about you mind your own fucking business and stop trying policing other people based on your own bigoted attitudes?

A friend told me an extraordinary story once. They ran away from an extremely religious household and marriage. They found themselves alone in a bedsit in london with only a radio alarm clock they turned it on and star trekkin blared out and was the first time they’d ever discovered secular music

it took me awhile to realize this but when I ask my 10yo semi verbal autistic daughter how her day was she'll sometimes do the David Byrne "same as it ever was" gesture from the Once in a Lifetime video to let me know nothing important happened and I fucking love that

A mysterious black goo found oozing in an American research boat has been analysed and revealed previously undiscovered life forms, one of which is called ShipGoo01.

Using AI, even for LOLs or Google searches or silly little pictures, just helps the companies who own the AI to make it even smarter and even more capable of doing your job one day. It's like sharpening the knife for the man who is going to stab you.

A homemade piñata in the shape of a number eight. It has colourful strips of tissue paper stuck across it. White paper circles form the two holes in the number

Piñata! Hopefully it won't fall apart before the 7yo's 8th birthday on Saturday

Four butterflies on an old wheel. The tyre is covered in spider webs and garden detritus. Their wings are closed, so they all look gunmetal grey in colour

One butterfly with its wings open. It's a peacock butterfly, with orange and brown colours and four round black, yellow and blue circle patterns. It's sitting on the inside of a dusty, web-covered wheel

Clearing away some garden detritus left by the previous owners and discovered seven butterflies having a nap! Left them where they were in peace

A photo taken through the window of a train. The name of the station "Newton for Hyde" can be seen on a sign. Inside the train a piece of paper is held up to the window with a sketch of a bewigged gentleman holding up a sign saying "Leibnitz for Jekyll"

Nerdy joke warning. 😁 I've been planning this since I first saw the Newton for Hyde sign.

Me and my brother watching The Village in the Hull Odeon. When the 4x4 pulls up next to the blind girl, my brother went "OH, SURELY NOT" and we descended into howls of laughter. "What a twist!"

“We are not at home to Mr Whinge” is something I actually just said to my 9 year old. What happened to me, man? I used to be cool.

Has it really been 10 years since the last Rush concert? Feels like so much longer

The first Italian recipe book was created in the 15th century and contained recipes such as “How to dress a peacock with all its feathers, so that when cooked, it appears to be alive and spews fire from its beak.”

exactly. it really wasn't that long ago that every major party supported trans rights and the media reported on these things accurately.

Reddit post on r/technology about young people and AI: "I recently heard about a teacher who instead of trying to circumvent students using AI, which is impossible, she made assignments by going "ask ChatGPT to write a report on this subject, and then research how and why it's wrong". Not only did the students discover that ChatGPT is extremely wrong a lot of the time, it also lead them to realise that they should not use it as a primary source".

This is one of the best ideas I've heard in ages.
