Yeah? Are more than 71 million people protesting? If so, where the fuck were you on Tuesday? And if not, well, I understand you don’t like the election result but this isn’t going to achieve anything.

Fuck, if only the road was clear BEFORE the election…

This is probably more valid than some think. Trump and his cronies are a clear threat to the country and must be eliminated before the damage is done.

I have to say when I watched the debate whilst Kamala herself impressed me, nothing she said felt very inspirational. I thought it was pretty clear what big picture items the base wanted and all she could come up with was a payment to new families and help for small business. This is good and all, but not the larger national and foreign policy announcements people wanted.

Boy are you in for a shock when you hear about Project 2025. This stuff is straight out of their playbook, with more to come.

You dumb, dumb motherfuckers.

Regards, the rest of the world.

AI being pumped into everything. It drives me absolutely nuts that every fucking thing has to have AI. Now you can buy a laptop that uses AI to write an email, just so the receiver can use AI to summarise it. We’re going to start using computers to develop enormous amounts of crap before we finally realise that putting the effort into writing, reading, drawing, designing etc. is actually worthwhile. Don’t get me wrong, I see several use cases for AI where it’s very good, and studied genetic algorithms at uni (i.e. software that can rewrite itself given feedback on its output), but what is being pushed on us now will just encourage laziness and ultimately be a detriment to humans in general.

I get so tired of these headlines that are basically “Authority figure says obvious thing”. Like, yeah, and so do most other people, thanks for the update.

The standard you walk past is the standard you accept, and all I’m seeing is a lot of the world walking past if not enabling. It’s all very well for world leaders to point out the obvious but until something is done about it, it’s just hot air.

When I was younger I binged a lot of Alistair MacLean. To continue the list with some of my other favourites:

The Satan Bug

The Golden Rendezvous

The Dark Crusader

The Last Frontier

Ice Station Zebra

Fair warning though: he’s quite formulaic and it is not recommended to finish one of his books then start another. Read a couple of books inbetween to give yourself a break.

Because once again, Trump just gets away with it. This is fucking bullshit.

And if Battlefield were still worth playing I’d give a shit. It has been well over 12 years since I got excited about a Battlefield game.

In Australia I knew I guy who was a SovCit and he would do stupid things like quote the bill of rights. We’d say “what bill of rights?” Australia doesn’t have one. All his info came from the US and he just followed it with realising none of it was relevant in a different country.

The way Gmail orders conversations/email chains makes it SO hard to figure who’s reply to what and what the latest email is. Each email in the chain contains the entire chain before it and you end up reading everything twice just to work out what the hell is going on.

Well at least 2016 got us “Pokemon Go… to the polls!” Eeesh

You know how you have to prepare your house when someone is bringing their kids over (especially if you don’t have kids of your own) ? That what this is. Things have got so bad that they have to bring in a bunch of new rules just so one adult can finish speaking without a other “adult” talking over them the whole time. Holy shit, this is what it has come to.

Not to mention Ace Ventura’s too-long scene of showering, burning his clothes, using a plunger to make himself throw up etc. So you kissed someone you didn’t know was trans, grow up.
