Nothing like a growth agenda to immiserate everyone involved

I’m 44. Four years ago I shifted career to escape unbearable work pressures and this year I reduced my hours so I can have something of a life now. I already have health struggles, no way I’m banking on retirement adventures.

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Yeah like it’s one thing to use it for info despite knowing all the flaws, but using it for really basic tasks that you already have more than adequate means of doing? I don’t get it

Would be even easier if every single fucking platform didn’t constantly have pop-ups asking me to use AI. Okay I’ve been writing emails for nearly 30 years without support, I think I’ve got this, bullshit clippy

Call me crazy but I think Doctor Who is better without megabucks; the Disney partnership turned it into something weird and glossy. (Will still blame RTD for all the damned songs.)

Is it really racism to be racist? How many migrants can we fire into the sun? Let’s discuss these issues on Definitely Not Racist with Peston.

If it was covered, it would not be by reporting a fact about Reform racism, it would be by asking “Are there too many brown people on TV?” and then platforming a posh racist for ten minutes with sympathetic soft questions.

I don’t really do much on Bluesky so coming back to my phone to find that margarine man has filled my notifications was a giggle

That’s what I wondered but he’s really insistent that it’s around 2000lbs oh my god he’s a serial killer

I read the first screenshot and thought, this guy has a body to dispose of, but by the fourth I was convinced he really does have a shitload of margarine

The Louvre jewel heist is a crime I can get behind. Old fashioned fun, sexy, audacious, victimless caper we can enjoy guilt-free. I hope they get caught after a long international chase, but instead of jail they get a parade. "Thank you for this fun crime! I hope nobody else tries it again (wink)"

This is deranged and dangerous from the Conservatives, and similarly from Reform. If they could enact it, it would rip British society apart, destroy the economy & NHS, & make the UK an international pariah. Every decent politician & political journalist/commentator needs to push back hard.

I’m sure you can get tablets with SIM cards?

I love my iPhone 13 mini. Not as much as the iPhone SE, but close. I don’t understand why I can’t have a phone that isn’t a tablet 😭

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

A while back I realized much of what I micro blogged was just me processing stuff out loud, & not in a way that had any benefit for myself or the topic. Often it could just be me articulating my most negative thoughts & foisting them on others! So I had a witch shrink me & now I live in a dollhouse.

In the grand scheme of things this isn't anything, but it's also a perfect encapsulation of why the entire C-suite class would best serve humanity by being ground into paste and fed to pigs.

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.
