Maybe it could be adapted into a kind of bread and butter pudding with a tea flavoured custard 🤔

I do the same with my last.fm account

Capes are cool!

I did some work about this kind of stuff for my masters and read a bunch of out there books about evangelical Christian eschatology and my main thoughts were 1. Wow you're trying to box tick God into the apocalypse and 2. Oh so this too is ultimately antisemitic

Chances are that I'll put a teaspoon of butter into the sauce when no one is looking

Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli cast loose the elven-boat in which they have arrayed Boromir’s body and broken horn. It vanishes over the Falls of Rauros.

‘What news from the West,
O wandering wind,
do you bring to me tonight?
Have you seen Boromir the Tall
by moon or by starlight?’

Yes - when you refer to someone or something as having as much use as a chocolate teapot, you're calling them useless because if you put hot water into that teapot then it will melt and not work as a teapot anymore. It might be a specifically British one though

it feels a little like the riddle has the vibe of comparing someone to a chocolate teapot

yeah like, this is very much a core reason why many people are particularly hostile to LLMs who might have otherwise not been

A spiral galaxy, seen tilted diagonally. It has a blue-white, glowing spot at its core. Its oval-shaped disc glows faintly blue throughout with light from its many stars. The disc is filled with waves and strands of bright red dust that swirl around the core. At places there are holes torn in the dust, while elsewhere it forms dense clumps that glow orange. Several tiny, distant galaxies appear across the background.

Happy lunar new year! 🧧🏮🌕

[Scene is a domestic kitchen. Night time. The room is all blue apart from warm orange-pink light streaming in from a streetlight outside. In the center of the room stands a woman named BRANDI, standing in pyjamas looking contemplative, the light cast dramatically on her face. At the doorway, leaning against the frame, her partner JOEL stands has woken up and found her in the kitchen.] JOEL: Honey… what are you doing? BRANDI: Can’t sleep Guess I just like standing in the kitchen at 3am thinking about the supernatural threat we temporarily defeated last year. While saying that out loud in a manner which sounds casually ironic but is actually just blatant exposition. JOEL: Brandi… you're talking strange... BRANDI: Dammit Joel. It’s time you knew. You're a Netflix character. [Joel looks shocked] BRANDI: Everybody you know has been forced to speak to you in second screen dialogue. Second screen dialogue helps the people scrolling their phones in front of the TV to follow the - JOEL: Stop explaining, Brandi! [Hands on head, emotional expression, warm pink light cast on his face against the cool blue darkness of the room]. JOEL: So that's why my entire life has looked so glossy and... BRANDI: Yep... Warm/cool colour graded. [Cut to a TV show TITLE SCREEN]: SECOND SCREEN - A Netflix original - [Ends]

Yeah I remember that from the time and it made me think even less of him than the f u did because he obviously wouldn't take responsibility for his own words. Like, fine you disagree with a whole convention of Trekkies and every Trek fan I know but at least own it and have some strength of character

And like, they could do why my parents did on many occasions which was "get the child a book on the subject" (and would take me to the main library if the mobile one didn't have anything)

🤣🤣🤣

No David, 60 place grid penalties are actually extremely enjoyable to me

Of course it is cold when the zip on my coat is broken 🧊

Hours later I finally realised what this was about 🤣

It has a kind of Return to Oz Wheelers vibe

Reminded once again that at least I don't have to regularly wake up before 6am but I would like to request from the universe that next time will be after I've had a few nights of decent sleep 🙃

the informal second person plural in english is now "chat"

They've published Gromit's article as a little birthday treat

I do wonder if there will be people who tune in to watch on Saturday and Sunday, only to realise they've missed Friday's race

Canadians/friends and partners of Canada/Swiss people/etc I'm hosting a watch party in the pub for the Canada v Switzerland ice hockey on Friday night at my pub if you want to come down; I'm gonna try and source some poutine

I suppose, as a vegetarian, you can't go about slapping hams

Ohnooo but also happy birthday ❤️🎂🎈🎊🎉🎁

I kind of knew that they'd lost the Summer Olympics but hadn't considered the Winter ones too 🙃

It's not because whatever subscription channel has shelled out for the rights on the big stuff is it?
