I twist other people's words for money. http://rewritten.uk Anything pre-July 2023 is imported from Twitter; I don't have a time machine. Not that I'd tell you about, anyway.
Dawn is breaking over Cape Town. There really is no more magnificent sight than giraffes at sunrise.
Oh no. I've got a little bit of cheese on my salticrax
It's been warm outside for quite a time now.
Anyone for Salticrax?
Filling out the intake form for a new doctor's office, and I'm just gonna go out on a limb and guess that their patient portal was at least partially coded by AI... This does not inspire confidence in their HIPAA compliance.
I bet all the people who had to sell their homes because of HS2 are kicking themselves for not just saying a CG/puppet sequence for a kids film was filmed at the location. Makes you wonder how whole film studios get flattened. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I’m all for paying more tax to fix social care and the NHS as long as the private equity parasites that have infected both are eradicated. What I’m not up for is paying more tax to line the pockets of shareholders of companies that have been invited to enshitify our essential public services.
So, happy 22nd birthday, this photo caption – which appeared in Selkirk paper the Southern Reporter below pictures of St Ronan’s Games Week and Cleekum Ceremonies in Innerleithen
