Looks more like a DS9/Blake's 7 mashup.

"Pipe bomb" is not a euphemism.

We can use CoPilot (in browser) for unclassified work. Some of us have CoPilot365/Teams Pro that can mine internal systems (but is pretty locked down).

"This isn't replacing officials" sounds legit, more likely he was playing with it to see what it can do. But yeah, I would have advised against.

Seldom, tbh.

Whilst I thought this 2TB drive was like witchcraft.

On YouTube someone did a mash-up video with clips of Fosse himself dancing in The Little Prince alongside various clips of Michael Jackson. Who owed him a LOT.

Hmm, align with a rules-based economic bloc with secure institutional structures, or with an capricious and ego-driven economic power with its institutional structures and legal system shortly to be massively compromised/dismantled. Wow, I'm so torn.

I'll need to ration this carefully, it can be a hell of a time sink.

Hi. Erm...haven't been on here for 9 months, but thought I'd better wave to everyone. Last time I was in these parts it was all Neil Gaiman as far as the eye could see...

I just booted up the app to find I was last here 9 months ago. Whoops, I knew I forgot something.

I've got a Ryobi cordless hedge trimmer onna stick - I adore it.

The name doesn't start with "Hydra" for nothing.

It's useful if you're in the middle of something - say, cooking -then want to briefly do something else, to narrate both what it is you are doing and what you intend to go back to doing so you don't forget and go and do a third thing and burn your dinner.

Talking of which - the other day was the 5th anniversary of my "Polari Explorers" piece.

My average daily stress load is between 30 and 50, and most days there's a noticeable stress response pretty evenly throughout the day whilst I'm awake (although on a slightly lower level when I'm medicated). I don't think my Garmin can handle ADHD...

On the other hand, nul points and a booing crowd would be a good plan B.

Whilst showing them his etchings.

James O'Brien on LBC said "they finally got him".

Noel Edmonds on TV earlier this week talked about the cultural influence of BBC Radio 1 in the 70s/80s and said:

"We touched people in a way that will never happen again".

Given how some R1 presenters were touching people, I think we can all be grateful for that.

Are you aware of the divine @suzynightingale.bsky.social ? She was my gateway into posh pongs.

Niche perfumiers are the way to go. (I'm currently wearing Miller Harris "La Feulle" which smells like harvesting tomatoes off the vine in a spring garden. Tomorrow I shall be wearing their "Wander" which smells like summer in a botanical garden).

Royal news: there is a damaging and malignant growth that needs to be excised and disposed of safely.

But leaving Prince Andrew aside, I gather the King is ill?

:-)

Nooooo!

He has always come across as being completely up his own fundament and a bit cardboard. And although not unpleasant to look at (unlike Jim Kerr - sorry, Jim), set against his contemporaries he is certainly no Simon Le Bon.

They already did a film of it - The King's Peach.

And no sub-Top Gear nonsense with Will Hardie....

Intrigued by which of his oeuvre is the one that sticks in your mind. Is it one of his critically acclaimed performances? Is it a camp extravaganza? Is it ultraviolence? Or perhaps a widely-denigrated comic book adaptation?

I've been like that on and off since last Wednesday. It's improving slowly, and has definitely messed with my sleep as well. Good to know it's not just a "me being crap" thing.

Him injecting things into his penis is a prospect far preferable to him injecting his penis into someone else.
