Trump is basically America’s George III at this point.

the strait of hormuz needs to have regular, predictable open hours or frankly they are going to lose me as a customer

Yo dawg, I heard you liked document reviews, so we put a Jira in your Jira.

As a non-US person looking at posts on this platform. Today feels like this.

Handed in my notice today.

Looking forward to my new job in 4 weeks.

Did anyone else think Ryan Gosling borrowed Damon Albarn’s hair for Project Hail Mary?

Went body boarding yesterday. Seems to be our family tradition to go in for the first time of the year during Easter break.

I had ice cream head within 5 seconds of hitting the water. I loved every second. Still caught the sun, too.

Aching today. In a good way.

“Fake and Gay” is a specific 4chanism.

I am not saying this to excuse his use of the phrase. Merely to highlight that 4chan was the origin of QAnon.

I would put short odds on him being damaged by that whole subculture rather than JUST the usual performative, grifting troll type.

The carburettor needed another clean through. The mower ran for about 10 minutes before conking out.

I actually bought proper spray for the job and did it again. Stuck with the job for the full 30 minutes. Very pleased.

I love when they get the science right. Just likeThe Core, Armageddon, 2012, and The Day after Tomorrow.

Fixed my mower today by cleaning out the carburettor.

If any needs me, I’ll be cutting down a redwood with an axe.

Just saw Project Hail Mary. My ch better than The Martian.

Weirdly touching.

Currently writing an AI safe shim/proxy for GitHub enterprise. It’s a big old task.

Thinking on it. An edgy April Fools news story would have been “Straight of Hormuz is open” story.

I mean… it sort of is if you have no skin in the game. It’s a hoot.

I think the lack of an April Fool’s story on BBC news this morning is probably a sound play.

Nothing could top reality right now.

When I was a young JW, we were told of a court case of a JW child in the US fighting a transfusion. The judge asked the child to name the first five books of the bible, they couldn’t and blood was given.

We were drilled to learn all the books of the Old Testament.

I was 9.

Have you ever thought you might die or receive a diagnosis that you were going to die? Blood runs cold, head goes light and the stomach looks for an exit either up or down.

Visit that feeling on your children every time they get in mischief by becoming a Jehovah’s Witness.

Nice! I wouldn’t try jumping in muddy puddles with those.

Oh dear god. No. No. No.

There are few other departments that are worse for AI.

I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I may incriminate myself.

I love my dog.

He is a part of my family.

No. I am not calling him a fur baby.

Just saw the most cockney looking fox cross the road at Paddington. It used the proper crossing and I swear it basically looked at the taxi in the queue as if to say “cheers mate.”

Are they Peppa Pig Wellies?

And his y-fronts

Your cunning plan is to sit back and watch them deflate like a cold soufflé.

Never change

Bloody kids running round the hotel last night around midnight.

Had to use my dad voice to impart the need to knock it off.

Eerie how it worked. I mostly expected them to tell me to fuck off and for me to need to get the staff involved.

Yes. But what about the gay of Hormuz?
