They shouldn't sell Warner Bros but instead offer access to it as an increasingly unattractive subscription service.

I just feel that overuse of AI is gradually depriving us of the ability to open pod bay doors for ourselves

That would take 20 minutes tops after the national lottery (use and equipment too). And would have more charisma.

Found some copies of The Light at a motorway services. Did my own research as to what it was and responsibly recycled them.

In the time they've spent chucking people off this train to cancel it i could have been at my stop and well on my way ffs. No idea if a replacement is coming but at least I know to smoke or vape or whatever.

Eek. I hope it comes to light quickly. I suppose at least it's not making sounds during the night.

We had something similar which turned out to be an old carbon monoxide tester whose battery had run out and was hiding behind a ledge on top of a kitchen cupboard so was invisible.

YOUR POEMS
Christmas by Caroline Dean
Hark the herald angels sing, Listen to them shop tills ring.
Early sales reel them in, Today's bargains, tomorrow in the bin.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Profits all the way.
The manager grins, his bonus is in, Hope people donate in the charity tin.
While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
I'm still in the supermarket's long, long queue.
People in the car park over a parking space fight.
Mi be home soon, so I'll be seeing you.
I'm rocking around the Christmas tree
while Holly and Ivy share a kiss.
I've spent all my pension by my love is free,
At the end of the day, the peace is pure bliss.
So, it's a silent night, No arguing tonight.
A beer-induced sleep, Ooh lovely, not a peep.

One of December's many faults is that it's both way too short to get anything done and unbearably long.

Railway sign saying "Traction Bond". Who knows what it means. I feel it would ruin it to find out.

Isn't it more conventional to stage a nativity play

Only one of these - Popular Alliance - is not a complete dud, although it would be a good addition to @rentouljohn.bsky.social's list of Compound Names In Which Every Word Is Untrue

Christmas is all about tradition. So it's lovely to see the annual Facebook posts about cars left in the town square car park ahead of the light switch-on.

I saw this in Sainsbury’s earlier, and the other six cheeses (listed on the other side of the box) are just as horrific.
