Such rich and pleasurable reading, even when I don’t co-sign the choices, though I co-sign so many of Justin’s that my eventual list will look like I’m copying his homework.

It’s not just that I like Arsenal losing (I really do) but watching their fans meltdown is always fucking hilarious.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.

I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".
