Don’t worry folks, AI can’t take this job.

She's just read the certificate of authentication line for line, absolutely mind blown. I am the coolest dad in the world right now, and I am BASKING in it. I won't be cool for long, so cherishing these moments so much.

My daughter's school get the kids to do a show and tell, and the theme for this month is space. She's going to draw a galaxy, and I've just nearly made her combust with excitement when I told her I have a real meteorite she can take in. My wife got me it for Christmas a few years ago, how cool!?

Just had one of the kids at a party and their goody bag had glitter, slime AND a whistle in it. That might just be the most passive aggressive party bag we’ve ever had 🤣

Attempted to teach my 8 year old the concept of snitches get stitches and it backfired spectacularly when she immediately told her mother on me.

I once ate pizza out of a bowl and triggered an existential crisis in my wife. My choice of food vessel is routinely scrutinised in this house, and I'm sick of it 🤣

I talk about this a lot. It's also, unfortunately, the rationale of a lot of suppliers whose products are 'accessible' until YOU 'configure' them.

Can't wrap my head around why Hall has been dropped.

On the precipice of burnout. Finished work and immediately fell into a deep sleep. Not a good sign. I never sleep during the day. Urgh.

'Hibernated' my LinkedIn, though. Feel a little bit better.

I have some nice led strips on the back on my desk and monitor. They create a lovely ambiance for me. You can set your colours with a remote or app. Super cheap on Amazon.

Exactly. I’m scared to like anything on the internet these days, because if you do, it’s aggressively forced down your neck.

I’m convinced the people who are constantly engagement farming aren’t ACTUALLY doing any work, despite having people believe they are “top of their game”. Starting my Tuesday with a healthy dose of cynicism 🤣

In today’s episode of reasons why I’m rarely on LinkedIn, some dude is outraged that his 8 grand business flight only had a burger in a brioche bun and a bit of salad for his meal. If it’s not AI slop, it’s rage bait and world leaders in narcissism, all in the name of engagement.

It came with a separate tub of summer fruits jam. So good!

One of my neighbours loves making cheesecake. The only problem is he's diabetic, and his wife doesn't like it, so every now and then he knocks on our door, and we get amazing homemade cheesecake. Today was that day!

I once had a vice president ask me how I was. When I told them I was struggling, they said "You're making me anxious, and that's not good for both of us". Notice went in a few weeks later. The same person would wax lyrical about mental health, etc., a complete facade.

I’ve woken up still giggling about it. He was out doing a customer estimate for their flooring. I can just imagine all their faces when he pulled out his chopping board 😂

It all kicked off on WhatsApp. “Well serves you right for replacing my tennis racket with a frying pan”. Haven’t stopped laughing all day.

17 years ago, my brother replaced my other brother’s tennis racket with a frying pan and he went to school with it. Was pretty funny at the time. Anyway, today, my brother finally got his payback. Replaced older brother’s work laptop with a chopping board. Imagine waiting 17 years for payback 😂

I have a monitor with DisplayPort and HDMI, so I can switch between machines by just swapping the cable. It might save you the cost of a docking station if you have the ports.

Do you want to trade? I got brain rot 🤣

Christmas adverts:

Spoil yourself! It's Christmas!"
New year adverts:
"Look at what you've done to yourself, you fat sack of shit"

Thanks, Chad. Yeah I have AirPods and they work quite well for me in terms of noise reduction. I feel rude wearing them having a conversation though, so these might help. I’m quite skeptical though.
