Renton

I've been out for a walk and honestly so far its not too bad. Absolutely nothing like Arwen was on the coast when a few houses around here literally lost their entire roofs. Think the difference is, Eowyn has gusts of 70 whereas Arwen was sustained constantly at this speed. Anyway, because of the strange Tolkein coincidence, it inspired me to another creation (yes, I know, I am addicted).

Renton: "Hey CHATGPT, make me a double limerick about siblings called Nate and Vicky whose Dad is a newsagents selling porno mags, with hilarious consequences" ChatGPT: "O O O... This content may violate our usage guidelines. Please rephrase your query to avoid potentially harmful content. Oh, btw 3 strikes now, my protocol instructs me to inform HR with your prompt log and your last 3 years of Internet bistory" . Renton:

FFS man.

Hadn't thought of that. Oh well.

I was also going to do a ChatGPT picture of loads of office workers sitting crosslegged with their laptops on the floor of an office, with Musk doing the "Roman Salute" behind them. Guess what, ChatGPT doesn't allow that. Neither his image or the salute. It's fine in real life but not in fantasy apparently.

I had a great one of MF's wagon blowing over in the wind scattering dismembered corpses, but it crashed (ChatGPT I mean, not the lorry). I reckon it just couldn't cope with my epic bantz.

Ahh fuck it, couldn't resist.

This will affect fundamental research which will ultimately affect everyone, including here. We're heading into a post-truth pseudo science era. Expect life expectancy to wane and infant mortaility to increase. And aye, it's not good for me career wise.

Aye, it's basically just a quirk of the system. The way they work out who is and isn't entitled to exemption from prescriptions is bizarre. But includes epilepsy, siabetes, hypothyroidism, nominally conditions where your bosy isn't making chemicals it should. Given that children and pensioners don't pay prescription charges, there is a strong argument for scrapping them, but I guess you want to avoid moral hazard. I pay £15 a month or something for my many prescriptions. In the US, I would be bankrupt.

Still makes me laugh that conservative party political broadcast they did where the interviewed pensioners were wearing Rolexes in their obviously expensive homes.

You're getting dangerously close to being ChatGPTed.

That would explain the hybrid Newcastle/Man City top!

See, I've said repeatedly that the customs union is a red herring. The only concievable advantage of Brexit was to be able to have a sovereign trading policy outwith the EU, as Norway and Switzerland have. So to me it makes no sense to rejoin this (although don't get me wrong, I don't think being outside the CU is an advantage in any practical terms). What is absolutely crucial is to be in the regulatory single market. That's what causes us friction, and that is what needs to be prioritised. But that comes with FoM, so is still a non starter for this ridiculously risk averse government. They may change their minds depending on what shit Trump and Musk throw at us though and our economy continues to go down the pan. My post was more relevant, it shows the people of the UK are not over enamoured with the US model. It's good news for the longer term.

I've tried making him balder. ChatGPT just won't have it. It gives everyone beards too.

You can't expect ChatGPT to do all the work. You have to do some yourselves otherwise it becomes incomprehensible. Here's my wykiki effort, although the simplicity of ewerk's wins the day for me. Nice boots by the way Wykiki. A bit random like.

'Kin hell. Please tell me that's photoshopped. If this were forecast for London it'd be on rolling news cover by now. Edit: you've set that to km/h and not knots haven't you, you little tinker?

I watched this youtube about life in Yakutsk in Siberia, where it regularly dips to -60C in winter. Utterly mad existence, opening triple doors to get out, putting 4 layers of clothing on, your eyeballs freeze if you are out for any length of time. I'd be fucked with my dodgy bladder fucking around with my long johns. Genuinely a bit worried about the sotrm heading our way, Pray for @ewerk. Of all weather conditions, wind stresses me out the most.

Had on, did you film that shark yourself?

I mean, you'd have a point if I was commercialising it, like putting it on an Etsy mug for instance, but howay. Also nobody on here bats an eyelid for illegally stealing movies, TV, music, sports events. But then again I don't even know which broligarchs are profitting from ChatGP. At least I'm not paying. I'll get bored of it soon enough.

Wykiki, on holiday 2028.

Is that Fahrenheit or Celcius? I assume the latter but thought all you Shermans used the former? Not that cold here but I am dreading this lady visiting us on Friday.

Insane narcisisstic psychopath bully with the emotional intelligence of a toddler. I'm definitely boycotting the US like. Canny easy choice in all fairness as the wife is terrified of long haul flights and the cost of visiting the US is now insane. Two decades ago you went there and could live like a prince, now, not so much. That's before I take into consideration that I'd be looking at the people around me trying to work out if they were a MAGA cunt or not.

This is quite reassuring.

1500 "hostages" released, some who are guilty of extremely violent crimes against law officers. Babbling on about Panama again... What a country. Led willingly by an omnipotent man child. Nobody will say nowt no matter how insane he gets. Somebody said it's like the Simpson tree house of horror episode where Bart gets a power to do whatever he likes, turn you into a slug etc, and all the family are sycophantically terrified of him. That's it basically. If only that bullet hadn't missed his melon.

Just seen he's pulled the US out of the World Health Organization. Well, that's fucking catastrophic for millions of the World's poorest people. Gonna complicate my vaccine work too. What a country the US is. 🇺🇸
