so… you mean fund recreation centres and out of school activities? NO

sports clubs and increasingly walkable cities? HAHA NO

playgrounds, green spaces, skate parks, libraries, any non-commercial spaces where kids don’t have to pay to exist? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

oh… enforce realistic safety standards for urban SUVs and light trucks? WHAT HAS THAT EVEN GOT TO DO WITH THE PRICE OF EGGS?

so how exactly does one give kids their childhood back? BAN SNAPCHAT TIKTOK AND INSTAGRAM

oh… what about 4chan or stormfront or kiwifarms? DON’T BE OBTUSE WE CAN’T BAN THOSE HOW WOULD THAT EVEN WORK??!?

i’m issuing two classes of shares in the upcoming ptoothfish ipo. one ptoothfish class share with a 99.9999% ownership and controlling stake in the organisation will be issued to me. Ten million sucker-class shares representing the remaining ownership and controlling stake in the organisation will be available for $10 per share. In the highly anticipated event of heavy oversubscription, shares will be allocated by ballot. Unsuccessful ballot applications will be refunded with a ten percent processing fee. Application for the ballot and allocation process indicates consent and agreement to the ptoothfish organisation terms and conditions, which will be advised as and when they are required.

surprised onlookers aren’t rushing the unattended scaffold

they shortened the angle and now it looks like work has stopped for rain?

i’m curious as to why they didn’t use a scissor lift or equivalent… the scaffold seems like part of the show

amazing

it’s like a doozers episode of fraggle rock #rpb

i’ve never ever seen a self-service till that doesn’t simply lock up when you scan alcohol until the staff come and swipe it 🤷‍♂️ have they changed this? https://mastodon.social/@anon_opin/116732756328797371

i was never a sprinter but i was a little bit sporty in the middle of high school. probably when i was fittest in my life, certainly springiest, 16-17yo, i went out for volleyball basketball endurance multisporting (bike run kayak), training most days and competing most weekends. i could dunk a basketball. if my math is right, at that time my fastest 100m sprint was probably a little under those guyses marathon pace. under. people are out there sprinting for two hours now.

still thinking about that sub two hour marathon

or if we wanted to live within the bounds of the metaphor… i’m inside this construction doing the plastering. my apprentice hasn’t actually learned how to spackle, and is now (at the urging of management) following along behind me putting new holes in the drywall with a nailgun. management is certainly impressed by how fast they can put holes in the drywall with this nailgun. my job is on the line because i won’t pick up a nailgun.

the current hilarious metaphor for AI in my workplace is that it is a nail gun, what would you say to the slowest timber framer on your team who refuses to use a nailgun?

and i completely agree. its EXACTLY like a nailgun. but we aren’t builders. please point your nailgun away from my crm database. its literally the worst thing you can point at a computer.
