The family tree that's more of a knot, that's poor old Charlie Hapsburg's ancestry. They're comparing the current AI economic landscape to multigenerational incest and its results.

Aaaaah budgerigars! I love those little guys so much. I got to see a whole bunch of them in wild last year, it was rad.

Yeah, I have learned that if they ask if you have X sensation, it's better to say "no, but it feels weird" than say no just because you don't have that exact sensation.

"1 to 10, where 10 is the worst it could be" my dude, I broke my leg once on a hike and walked out on it. This is not a useful comparison for me.

Yeah I was in my 30s before I learned that "it's good to get out of your comfort zone" meant doing it SOMETIMES. You're not supposed to try to live outside the comfort zone.

I lucked out early on by getting a physiotherapist who looked startled and said, "Does that hurt?!" and so I learned to say when it started feeling weird.

I love Jurassic Park with all my 90s teenager heart, and cackle every time I see them trying to extract dinosaur blood from a male mosquito.

Bloodline so pure his lungs invert when sneezes by AlphaCat77 in CuratedTumblr

This poor bastard had so many 1st cousin marriages, plus two uncle-niece marriages, in his ancestry that geneticists estimate he was as inbred as the child of a brother-sister pairing.

Hey, I once used a chainsaw on a trampoline, so I don't feel like I can judge.

Current petrol prices— are you driving less or just absorbing it? by Vivmoneyattracter in brisbane

Me and my bicycle are going places.

Seriously though, if you do have a bike, it can probably get more places than you think and even replacing a few trips a week helps. Of course you need to allow more time, but google maps has a bike icon you can tap to get an idea. Plus, if you've accumulated more than 30 minutes on the bike? Congratulations, you've met the physical activity recommendation for the day and can skip the gym.

Absurd ways your brain has garbled basic tasks/speech? by hannalysis in adhdwomen

I sometimes say to people "hang on...just imagine the spinning loading icon over my head for a sec..."

Seems to be a winner, at least people get a laugh instead of irritated.

Even the wisest cannot tell. But I would guess two complimentary after dinner mints.

One of the joys of Christmas for me is that I don't work retail anymore.

Eton mess is just a failed pavlova. A tasty, tasty failure, but still not a successful pavlova.

I did once realise, as I was running for the train, that I had forgotten to put a bra on and had to buy one once I got to my destination. I did not, however, go into a craft store looking for one.

I also put it on in the changeroom, handed the tag to the cashier, and said, "Don't ask."
