Please don't plug keyboards or other devices into random USB ports, ok?

think this is sort of interesting as actually.....no you probably didn't need to do "more research" into it? you just had to trust the state and local authorities to know better than you when it came to vaccinating your child? not good that the internet has killed faith in institutions!

I shall be using this as a quote response to everything for the foreseeable

“(Tom) Lehrer recalled the studio session for ‘Poisoning Pigeons in the Park’ , which referred to the practice of controlling pigeons in Boston with strychnine-laced corn: “The copyist arrived at the last minute with the parts and passed them out to the (studio musicians)…And there was no title on it, and there were no lyrics.” “And so they ran through it, ‘What a pleasant little waltz’… “And the engineer said ‘Poisoning Pigeons in the Park, take one,’ and the piano player said ‘What?’ and literally fell off the stool.”

"stick the ball in their net"

"got it"

And STILL

I don’t have great insights into this beyond that’s never happened to me before and I wonder if people are ok?

An Italian (?) guy completely unprompted whilst I was walking home after lunch, launched into a rant at me about disabled people with free cars and how they get free money and how this country doesn’t see what’s happening to it, after seeing a car with a blue badge on yellow lines

Yeah but at least they got some nice LinkedIn headshots out of it

ChatGPT is not your friend! real relationships challenge you toward personal growth, as with Mavis Beacon, a beautiful lady professional who taught me to type really fast.

Front page of Warwick.ac.uk

Self-inflicted embarrassment for the University of Warwick — first it rebrands hyper-generically, then someone totally unhinged decides the *front page of the uni website* should say ‘Learn more about our Brand’.

A year in sticky notes

Oh lovely stuff

As I sat under a canopy in the pouring rain this morning eating an overly expensive sausage roll. I thought how *exceptionally* glad I am that today is the last teaching day for my MSc.

How on God's clean Earth have DfE only just got to this. It's been obvious for half a decade! Govt now rates university failure as 'very likely': be warned.

I *think* this is the old SU events hall at St Mary’s which has been made into an e-sports arena - www.stmarys.ac.uk/smu-esports-...

absolutely spectacular writing from the Wikipedia editor who added this to Jim Carrey's entry en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Car...

What is a classroom in a Portakabin if not a room of requirement?

Is Chris Philp wearing an Oura ring? #BBCLauraK

Bizarre discussion on the radio likening air condition to passive smoking because it accounts for 3% of CO2 emissions.

But: we don’t moralise turning heating on in winter, and heating accounts for 15% of emissions. If aircon is intrinsically immoral, so are radiators.

The Cloud Bot animation in Astro Bot is amazing!

Am being driven slowly mad by you guys not parsing this sentence correctly. It literally starts with the option “scanning your face”, why would you need to do anything else?

Let us never speak of this bizarre Students' Union-alumni integration scheme again (although depending on the mark maybe we might, because it could be a good income generation idea for Students' Unions)

You’re making it very hard for me to do my MSc, Nibbler

“Any men who are shirtless on this train, please get off now, it is against the rules to be shirtless on the train”

My main thought today is to apologise to the SUs we encouraged to feed in to the NHS 10 year plan. Students completely ignored other than as trainees.
