It's just absolutely beyond my understanding. How can *any*one, let alone someone as smart as #NFDad, be fooled by this stuff.
I might as well let you know. #NFDad got sectioned on Thursday, so we're all in a very difficult place just now.
Oh dear. Unfortunately, #NFDad has fallen right down the LLM rabbit hole and is believing every damn thing Gemini says to him.
Y'know, if he would just listen to me, he would've been immune.
I'm feeling rather worse than useless at the moment.
Just had an absolutely devastating phonecall from #NFDad. ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
#NFWHealth Well, I've had a lovely evening with a friend talking about this and that, which has been good, because I've been worried sick about #NFDad all day.
Now I need to take my meds (actually I needed to take them 3 hours ago) and go to bed.
Haha, yes, that bit was always #NFDad 's job. On one memorable occasion it required him to climb 30-40 ft up a tree with a chainsaw to then hack branches off. ๐คฃ
If you could bottle that, I'd like to give #NFDad some.
Well, #NFDad says it's not his only news source, which I guess is something. But somehow he does think they have "good" experts, and gods alone know where he got that idea from.
He seems to get more "news" from GeeBeebies than from anywhere else.
131 million!!
Well, it's worked on #NFDad, I'm very ashamed to say.
I think #NFDad is looking at Fred Olsen. That's the company he's used so far.
#NFDad is now thinking of doing a round-the-world cruise along the equator. As usual, his money - he can do what he likes.
But he won't like it - he'll be too hot the whole time, and wandering round ports when the ship docks is physically beyond him, I'm afraid.
No idea how to help him at this point
Right, well #NFDad's latest plan is to write to the head or research at the Open University with a view to getting two (two!) research students to help him prepare his rock and sand collections to museum standard so that the Natural History Museum will take the collections to put them on display.
I am now very concerned that I might not see #NFDad in the flesh again. ๐ญ
#NFDad has given me a wonderful birthday present. He noticed that I was forever swearing at my phone, and said he'd get me a new one that does what I want it to.
So, I've got a Fairphone 6 with the /e/ OS.
I think that'll see me out.
Did everyone notice where I got my beard from? #NFDad grew his when I was about 3, and when our elder son was born, I just thought - father's have beards. So I grew one, too. ๐คฃ
Two elderly gentlement seated. The one on the left is younger, and dressed all in black, while the older is in a green puffer jacket and a blue flat cap.
#NFDad and I preparing to take on the world.
Oh yes, exactly that. We've had a graphic example of the opposite in recent days, though. #NFDad has massively ambitious plans. He would barely have been able to manage 30 years ago, never mind now.
What he wants to do is waaaaay beyond his capabilities. Not quite sure how to deal with it, tbh.
It's a matter of complete bemusement to me that someone as smart as #NFDad thinks that Nige and Yusuf are in any way good for the country.
It doesn't look like there's any way to dissuade him from that view, though.
Last night, #NFDad got on one of his hobbyhorses, and spent far too long telling us how much better things would be in the UK once Fartrage was in charge.
At the same moment, #NFSis and I turned to #Marmite and said in unison, "What do you think Marmite?".
How to change the subject. ๐โโฌ๐คฃ
I showed this to #NFDad this morning. Just the image, without the caption. And asked him where it was. He named it correctly in about 5 seconds.
It's really funny, and also if truth be told quite tiring, but #NFDad just can't stop educating. He's more than a bit deaf, so he's not so brilliant at listening, but when it comes to learning stuff, wow.
Had a Talisker whisky with #NFDad and #NFSis to ring down the curtain on our time together here.

#NFDad has bought himself two hand-carved wooden Polish highlander walking sticks and a Bolesลawiec mug.
Full tourism mania. ๐คฃ
belated happy 60th! glad you had a great day. #NFDad sounds awesome:-)
This was hilarious. Sentences you never expected anyone to say.

#NFDad and Sis and I spent yesterday catching up with stuff and enjoying each other's company. It was lovely - we really don't get many opportunities to do this.
Not sure what's on today. Maybe a trip to the centre.
Very best wishes to you all for a fantastic Friday!
#NFDad Another Good One today.
At one point, when Dad was dozing in my wheelchair, Sis turned to me and asked sotto voce, "Is he totally mad?"
I thought and said, "No, not really. I've met far madder people. He's just very enthusiastic."
One of the reasons he was an excellent lecturer.
#NFDad This evening, we ordered a large pepperoni pizza for dinner, and at one point Sis wanted Dad to read something, and he took his glasses up from their lanyard and put them on. Then there was a moment of consternation on his face and he took the glasses off again, and exclaimed: >>
