Remember to be kind to yourself today. You can be evil to yourself tomorrow. On Wednesday you should be kind to ducks. On Thursday the ducks will be evil to you, so watch out for that

The General Causes of Anxiety Rankings (GCAR) have been updated for 2026, and for the first time since records began Karaoke (Open in Incorrect Key) has been bumped from the top 10 by bright young newcomer Lettuce Taint (Domestic).

All I want from a phone is the physical impossibility of swiping the wrong part of the screen and accidentally opening the selfie camera when I'm not emotionally prepared to look at my own face at that angle and distance. It doesn't even have to make calls.

Found someone who not only offered to store all of my wordly possessions for the undetermined period I'll be away from Mongolia, but will also manage my business for a month so my ex-wife has time to properly mourn her dad when she returns home from her wedding in Spain. I have the best friends.

There's a beautiful scene in Band of Brothers set during Operation Market Garden in which a paratrooper from Easy Company, after years of Nazi occupation, gives a Dutch child his first taste of chocolate Tragically it's American chocolate, which is a deeply cruel trick to play on a European

Much like Sandra Battye the genuine seamstress in Pratchett’s Night Watch, most large radio telescopes have a skilled makeup artist on staff for when confused people show up looking to learn how to properly contour.

My ex-wife's father passed this morning after fighting cancer for a decade. The world won't remember him, but I will. He was a teacher. He raised seven daughters on his own. He welcomed me into his family and cried at our wedding without shame. A Mongolian mensch. Rest well, dad, you earned it.

Turned 45 a couple of hours ago, and already finished the traditional age horror-fuelled birthday workout. Let this be the year I meet my second and final wife, though if any genies are listening I'm very open to my ex-girlfriend's fiancé falling down a well to clear the way for a second attempt.

Disclosure Day is the first movie I've watched at home this year without pausing it halfway to do the dishes or sort my laundry, or playing with my phone while I give it half my attention. Close Encounters vibes. Classic Spielberg.

Me: I hate AI. It's a cancer. Wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. AI: Hi! I can remove Donald Trump from any World Cup celebration photo at the touch of a button! Me: ... I'm listening. AI: Great, I'll ᵏᶦˡˡ ʸᵒᵘʳˢᵉˡᶠ get right on it! Is ⁿᵃᶻᶦˢ ʷᵉʳᵉ ᶜᵒᵒˡ there anything else I can do for you today?
