    Someone on the Woolworths reddit sub posted this pic, I thought it was too good not to share. Wonder if chef has any good butt hole recipes?

    Watch The Martian with Boyo. 4/5 Hobbits. Loved it, but so many “BUT WHY” moments. I get the feeling that I should have hated Teddy, but I didn’t, some dickish dialogue aside.

    Dropped off a library book at a community centre and I saw a poster for an art workshop that was completely AI generated

      You know, I tried for a second to defend it as, you know, devil’s advocate, but I am honestly at an absolute loss. What the actual fuck.

        I’d say the poster was done by council staff and not anyone running the workshop. There was a bunch of AI stuff in there

          See, that was my go to, but if they’re organising an art event, sure they know an artist or two they could have used instead of this crap.

            Have you come across The Financial Historian on YT? His take on AI is fascinating - and chilling. It’s fairly recent, yesterday or the day before.

            lengthy

            Basic premise - the Bosses are using AI to downgrade/downsize workers to maximise returns to shareholders, which eventually leads to the workers not having enough money to consume the products the Bosses’ enterprises produce, so the Bosses fail to make any profit at all due to lack of demand. He argues for a re-think of the nature of productivity to make AI a benefit not a curse to the workers. One thing he stresses is that if AI is going to be used to replace entry level work, where is the next generation of skilled workers going to come from.

            We’ve seen something like this already where, for example, do young tradespeople come from? When the Defence forces and the railways stopped their mass training of young tradies, the only source is now the TAFE system which lacks a lot of on-the-job skill training. And the older generation is now largely retired or retiring.

              Defence still trains tradies.

              It’s more that that the kids they used to train now believe they have better options

    Partner is playing Dishonored, and I am reminded of how I completed the game without killing anyone, circa 2015/16.

    Although I may have forgotten a lot of the intricacies of the game, it remains one of my proudest gaming achievements.

    Successful bike ride! Boyo told me he’d pick me up from work so I could ride a bit longer and get to somewhere I’d enjoy.

    Where he picked me up

    I crack myself up.

    I did stop at the river for awhile though, so that counts.

    Hello GamesDay people. This is your 1 week alert. I have decided against a spit meat mostly for cat wrangling reasons. Alternative attraction is a giant tiki mix. Pineapple juice will be a starter, bring whatever 😺

    I assume everyone has a variety of nicknames and/or phrases for their pets, so I’d like to hear them lol

    For Mickey:

    • “who made you so cute/pretty” usually while he’s headbutting my nose.
    • “mickstar”
    • “stinky puss brain” after he goes loo
    • “buttlicker” said like the family guy sketch “butt scratch-ER”
    • “how you doin’” this a call and response, he usually responds with “mrr-rah!”
    • “monkey/possum/koala” when he gets picked up
    • “big puss” this was the name of my first cat who was a year older than me, so it’s a bit of a homage but also bc Mickey is like 7kh of pure feline chaos lol

      Oreo is otherwise known as Little Miss, Shiny Girl and Bowl Cat.

      Pepper is Pepperoni, Roni, Little Cat and Spicy Cat. She has her own song about being the spiciest of all the sausage cats.

      Foxy is Fluff, Fluffle, Mr Flufalufagus, Ginger Fluff Sponge or the Big Fluff.

      Betsy is Betsy boo, Puppy, Puppy Wuppy, Rocket Dog or Miss Barks a lot.

      None of them ever get called their proper government names.

      Alfie became Alfa-reenie, which turned into Reenie.

      He also gets “OMG WHY” when he insists on licking my face.

      “Whiny bitch” is also a common one.

      Mr Woof had a bit of a compulsive face licking problem when I first got him, so I had to advise him quite frequently that “no one likes a dog who can’t hold his licker”. It sunk in eventually, I haven’t had to use that one for years.

      I give my little dog a new name every day. Today it’s Princess. If he pees on the carpet it’s Mr Pissy Pants for a week.
