ChatGPT-5 offers dangerous advice to mentally ill people, psychologists warn

A 12 inch album (vinyl if you must) playing on a tuntable with an album cover of Christmas with Bert Kaempfert in the background.

There are Christmas albums and there are Christmas albums. This is the latter. Superb production and sumptuous bass, brought to you by the man instrumental in the discovery of the Beatles. Happy advent. #christmasmusic #bertkaempfert #thebeatles #vinyl

Got the special edition but it got played less as getting the box back together is… fiddly 😁

Had those before - popular if messy as hell! 😁

Charisma for people who can’t spell ‘charisma’ 😁

A Rega turntable playing an album with the cover of Genesis’ The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway in the background.

It’s had one play already today. Probably not the last.

How deliciously naive.

Intelligent, well adjusted humans find Microsoft AI exec's disconnect from reality 'mindblowing'

No matter how much food they have, they always want the piece in the other one’s mouth. It’s Guinea pig law, in fact.

Finger trouble voting? A nay popped up and went more than once

Mike Johnson redefining the meaning of hypocrisy

Oh the trad kit every time - why lose the one thing that differentiates snooker from other sports? Would look even better without the stick on adverts as well…

A rather smug looking black and tan Guinea pig lying next to a green plastic bowl that has been upended and perched against a wooden hid nearly perfectly at right angles.

Norman, our bowl- tipper extraordinaire, has excelled himself this morning. Note the self- satisfied look on his face #guineapig

Shirley QA and Microsoft is an oxymoron

No they are in separate cages - the two new boys hit puberty, all hell broke lose and it turned into a Mexican stand off. The cages are on wheels so can be pushed together for good behaviour 😁

Highlights of last night’s management board meeting. Matters arising: office divider stress test. #guineapigs #boardmeeting

Two blue bolws containing different versuions of All-Bran. On the left, the new version,on the right, the original

Spot the difference: On the left, Kellogg's "New improved" All-Bran - that's universally hated - compared to the original. Naturally the whole box of the new stuff went in the bin. The end of an era and of me as a Kellog's customer. Shades of the "New Coke" debacle... #allbran #kellogs #unholycockup

A white Teddy guinea pig looking out of a brown paper bag. Which he has trashed.

Casper taking a break from wheeking at the moon this evening and lurking in a paper bag. He is one noisy were-pig. #guineapig #fullmoon

A red guinea pig with a square dark patch under his nose resembling a Toothbrush Moustache like Hitler or Charlie Chaplin

Our 2 new guinea pigs have a Californian mother (famous for their black snouts) so it’s not surprising they are getting dark noses. However, at the moment, Stanley’s colouring could be considered… unfortunate. #guineapig #toothbrushmoustache #charliechaplin #mustache #notadictator

A red Teddy Guinea pig looking out through s circular window of a wooden hide

Stanley looking too cute for his own good. #guineapig

Should have called him Damien 😁

Possessed guinea pig

Three guinea pigs in a makeshift cage being introduced

D-Day for introductions: our two new Teddies are in with Norman. After 10 minutes in statue mode and some initial skirmishes it all went quiet. I was expecting Armageddon after 5 minutes. #guineapigs

There will be plenty of cameras trained on any tape this weekend…

trying to switch off the AI bloatware that has been pinned to the top of every single menu in every single app

Hopefully this means an end to those particular shenanigans now that these strips of tape will have scores of cameras trained on them.

Two young Teddy Guinea pigs, one red, one white on an orange cushion. One of them is a troublemaker.

Two new guinea pigs arrived with us last week, both 3 month old teddies.
Stanley on the left, Casper on the right. Casper is a cutie. Stanley on the other hand… #guineapig

A black and tan Guinea pig head raised by the edge of a cage. Plotting.

Is there such a thing as a Machiavellian Guinea pig? I think so. He just stands by the new boys, watches and plots. #guineapig

Bit windy out
