Didn’t his kid also have a lot to do with the transformation?

Don’t give them ideas. I can see marketing people getting very excited at the concept of apps with distinct personalities. Suddenly the calculator on your phone is replaced with “Ask Eugene”.

I live next to a very popular MTB town. Everywhere I look it’s adults going out on bike adventures. It’s driving half the economy around here.

My therapist specialised in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, so we started out by trying to identifying things in my life that I was overreacting to. It turned out I was dealing with Real Shit, and remarkably chill under the circumstances. We had to abandon the CBT approach.

That was still helpful though. By asking the question, it validated my behaviour, so I didn’t doubt myself as much going forward. It helped me make some big life changes.

I’m on Bazzite after giving the other ublue flavours a try. It took a couple of weeks to get comfortable with the new philosophy, but now I can’t see myself going back. What felt like limitations at first, now feels like good habits. All my dev work is done in containers, so it just makes sense.

Why would anyone want something that provides the olfactory promise of bacon, but never delivers actual bacon?

She doesn’t spend the cash. It’s her ID card.

In Westminster-like systems, I believe this would be loss of supply, where it’s expected to trigger an election. It seems to work well as an incentive for governments to do their bloody job, but I’m sure they would find a way to abuse or ignore it.

Now I want to know why Sabaton hasn’t done a song about the Emu War.

Because you already switched, right? Right!?

Or just the size of the largest input?

Yeah it could get rough. The problem was mainly one kid who wanted to spear tackle everyone.

Early 90’s. It started out as tag, but we thought tackling would be more fun.

I went to school in a few towns, but I only recall playing this in Armidale, NSW.

Everyone runs across the field together, while one person tries to tag as many people as they can. If you’re tagged then you are also a tagger in the next round. Repeat until one person is left, who starts the next game.

We were actually banned from playing this because we preferred to tackle instead of tagging. Nobody got seriously hurt, but the teachers thought it was only a matter of time.

I’ve seen stingrays absolutely gorge themselves during a big crab moult. I think I’d rather be a ray.

The trailer for season 4 just released was the nail in the coffin. Liam Hemsworth is doing his best, but there’s no way Henry Cavill would have uttered the line, “Let’s fuckin’ move.” The writing is so bad he couldn’t save it.

You know how every bully has spineless little hangers-on who cheer on the abuse but are too cowardly to participate directly? This is them.

They just add a cheap herb mix to everything. Why do so many people fall for it?

It’s better than all the years I didn’t have one, no doubt. I just didn’t expect this much maintenance.
