A nurse. A researcher. A helper.

We all use flawed, problematic platforms and products; it's unavoidable. But X is something else altogether. It's astoundingly evil. Almost none of the usual excuses apply any longer. Get the fuck off of it.

Mmmmm, that opsworks deal was a nightmare that just kept on giving.

Question. What must police officers do? Options: Be rude and abusive Make a false statement Obey the law Commit racial discrimination.

Passed my Life in the UK test. Spent a while thinking about this mock test question…

Newspaper headline saying “Danish authorities say professional actor responsible for airport drone attacks.”

My money is on Shia LaBeouf, Joaquin Phoenix, or James Franco.

Not much, how about you Dad?

One of the main reasons I haven’t been posting on socials much over the last six months :)

There’s no such thing as an internal only product name.

Some of those tax credits are based on publishing the results of research rather than an output asset, and those should be sound if the fundamental approaches are.

Eating falafel with hummus always feels vaguely wrong and cannibalistic.

TikToker Goes Viral For Creating Real-Life Version Of Infamous 'Wallace & Gromit' Contraption Wow!

I could watch this over and over again 🤣
