Kim Jong Un takes down an order for a chippy tea

"So that's four large chips, haddock, battered sausage, mushy peas and curry sauce... what are the rest of you having?"

Saw Rick last Saturday! You’re in for a great time.

I got asked the inevitable “where do things go when you empty the [Windows] Recycling Bin, and how can I get them all back?” question at work today.

Thanks! Avoided any side effects so far, other than my arm is… Well, I can’t lift it very high. And it aches ridiculously.

(Better than the alternative, I guess!)

A display board with loads of pantomime flyers, from the past, in Bournemouth Pavilion.

Off down the Pavilion.

Paid for a private jab today – YOU WEREN’T EXAGGERATING WITH THE HORSE KICK COMPARISON.

Bloody glad that my multi-hour mega-appointment tomorrow is going to be remote, given this time of year.

The chilling thing to contemplate that the current incarnation of Labour could advocate exactly the same barbaric policy, and probably would if they considered it electorally effective to.

They were always going to call for mass deportations once Brexit happened. That was the whole point of the exercise for the majority of Brexit supporters. Guess it’s mask off time.

Repost with a photo of yours that would make a good album cover.

One of the thumbnails I saw had “SCAM” placed in large letters – always a clear sign of terrible YouTube content, whatever the channel or topic.

Institutionally transphobic British culture (including virtually all political parties) is the problem, not social media. Politicians using the internet as a scapegoat for social problems got old back in the 1990s!

Independent shops are a great thing, people pulling them down because they can’t use them for content is not. Support the great thing

At this point I think we can all fairly quickly tell a good from a bad retro/gaming channel on gut instinct alone… I mean, this particular person’s channel is going to be offputting to discerning viewers due to the strong she-gammon vibes she gives off…

Wonder Boy III, Psycho Fox and Enduro Racer (aka the stealth home conversion of Atari’s Paperboy which is better than the official ones)? Excellent choices.

What about T-levels? I thought those were the latest ‘alternative’ qualification. Unless T-levels have already gone the way of GNVQs, AVCEs et al. They all tend to be short lived.

A decade on and grown adults still haven’t twigged that the man’s strategy replies upon enraging people into sharing his effluence on social media.

Would be nice if we in England even had the option to vote against endless Brexit; all parties seem to have given up completely on doing more than nibbling round the edges and rearranging the deckchairs.

Another thing here - if you go to, let's say, a GP and you get an answer your not happy with, PERSIST.

I had a proper diagnosis when I reported what happened with my GP to my diabetic specialist. She then got me a referral, saying that the GP should have.

Eventually I was properly diagnosed.

Quite honestly I hope most of the parliamentary Labour Party does so as well. I am beyond disgusted at what that party has become, and how hard they have been kicking the people whom Labour is meant to be for.

Labour is at its heart culturally/socially conservative, as is its voting base. Therefore an easy fit for Reform.

I noticed around 2015 the tone of a lot of retro gaming/computing content gradually changing from being “I am making a video about this thing because I like it and/or find it interesting” to “this thing has a following, let’s make clickbait to exploit that following, and use it to build a ‘career’”.

My girlfriend just phoned her sister, who answered by singing the Pink and the Brain theme tune in German. Amazing.

I hear Bluesky’s user base is decreasing. They need some advertising.

Yeah, the main difference I’ve noticed with wood types is 1.) how heavy it makes the guitar 2.) how easily the guitar body dents if you drop it.

The worst fashions always seem to return in a cyclical, err, fashion.

Over 75s, not over 65s. So that’s a significant amount of people who are no longer able to access the vaccine on the NHS.

The NHS has largely retreated from offering so many forms of healthcare; it’s an ongoing national scandal, yet the media are largely silent on the matter.

Ideally we should bar emigres to Dubai from even re-entering the country.

Someone at workplace just converted a PNG to a JPG by printing out the PNG image and putting the resulting printout in a flatbed scanner, whereby the resulting scan was automatically saved as a JPG. 🫤
