Gary Larson cartoon about Jane Goodall

Gary Larson cartoon about Jane Goodall

The Jane Goodall Institute threatened to sue Gary Larson over this cartoon.

Goodall told them not to be so stupid, sold it on a tshirt, and wrote the introduction to The Far Side Gallery 5. Absolute legend.

The real generational divide is people who refuse to watch a video if it could be an article versus people who refuse to read an article if it could be a video

I'm very selective about apps. If they seem well written and perform a useful function without fuss, they're great, but there's a lot of shite out there.

I always print tickets etc. I use my smartphone a lot, but I have worked with technology for too long to trust it to always work.

I don't see how there could be an insistence on cards in a digital wallet when not everyone has a smartphone?

Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it.
Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.
Standing up for humanity, for science and a habitable planet.
Where's the hazard in that?

of course, this is Reform and their supporters in general: they want rules to apply to everyone else.

we really do need to worry about what Reform might to do to our medicines and vaccine regulation if they get into power

A healthy looking plant.

This outdoor Yucca we've had for well over 30 years was looking a bit sick earlier this year, but it has had new growth and two flowers :-)

Fuck sake. I'm literally just writing a Word document and saving it to my hard drive. STOP ASKING ME TO USE YOUR SHITTY AI AND YOUR SHITTY CLOUD SERVICE. Why is this decades old basic task such a fucking chore now? It's broiling my shit.

Never mind autism, someone needs to look into a cure for absolute narcissistic self belief that many rich and posh people have. We need an end to people like Trump just blindly saying he's the best, or Boris Johnson types blathering away complete bollocks with absolute certainty.
