I had anxiety for 50 years.

Now I don’t.

(But it remains that if you DM me to sell me your shit, it’s Block Town for you).
AI is showing us the GIGO principle in super slow-motion. And large corporations won’t listen to us. We are telling them that AI is making everything worse. We are telling them that AI rubbish will eventually affect their profits. They are refusing to listen.

I don’t know the Nowegian alphabet, but I’m willing to bet that “Regnet i Spania faller hovedsakelig på sletten” or “Den raske brune reven hopper over den late hunden” don’t serve the same purpose.

Phrases like “The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain” or “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” don’t mean what the words say. The first is a test of pronunciation. The second is a sentence used in typing or writing tests/examples because it uses every letter in the English alphabet.

A decision made by bureaucrats, not the people who do the actual work.

Language subtitles aren’t a *translation*, they’re an *interpretation*. Words & phrases in every language have unwritten meanings that AI is too stupid pick up.

I know we all loved Madonna because she put our deepest unspoken hopes and fears into words. But more than that, she showed us that girls like us could be successful beyond anyone’s wildest expectations. #80sMusic #Metrosexuals #80s #FemaleIcons #GirlBoss

That’s closer to my experience!

It’s horrendous, isn’t it?

No, definitely not. About an hour north of here, they get tropical currents, so the water up there is quite temperate.

We adore him. People think he’s lucky, because we adopted him - but the luck was all ours. I’ve never had a dog love me like this boy does.

We’re on the NSW South Coast south of Sydney. The water’s bloody freezing. We get currents from the antarctic here, so there’s about 2 days a year when the water doesn’t feel like an ice bath 🧊

Omg what a cutie.

You can’t tell where the dog ends and the human begins - which is how they like it.

That is probably the greatest travel hack ever published.

And here’s our lord and master, Happy, the sawn-off Kelpie.

We are doing that exact thing tonight. Here’s a photo I prepared earlier:

I apologise. I can’t really discern when I’m meant to become a better person, and when I’m meant to unleash my radical left terrorism on small children and puppies.

Bloody autism. It’s a curse, I tell ya.

Aww thanks!
October 4, 2025 at 8:48 AM
I’ve become a better person today, because of you.

If they all did this, the dictator would be powerless, thrashing around like a rabid, syphylitic little conman whose house of cards has just been blown over by a toddler.

Sucks to give up their entire life for it. This guy will be imprisoned.

I’ve been saying it wrong my whole life! From now on I will only say “cah-HOLE-ay”.

Do I have that right?
