The difference of course between The Smiths and Wham was that everyone actually WANTED Wham to reform.

Spoken like a true “tech journalist”, Andy. Oh yes, of course, the only competition the next Google Pixel has is the iPhone or the Samsung S22.

This article is so banal and scripted I don’t think you even need a real human to write these anymore. Just program them into some AI.

Also loving how he even says it’s basically the same hardware, ohhh but that’s okay, cos I get to receive a freebie try out phone from Google, yaaaaaay.

Utterly fucking pathetic.

Tested positive yesterday morning. I was wiped out all Saturday and pretty much spent the whole day in bed. I thought I’d better do one yesterday, just in case…..

Fucking positive. A very faint lower line, but it doesn’t matter how faint it is, it’s still positive.

Fuck sake. I spent 2 years wishing this to happen – I would have had a guaranteed week off work at the care home – maybe even more. But noooooooooooo, it happens in a job where I actually LIKE going to work. Spent most of my weekend in bed. I can still taste and smell, but I have no appetite. I spoke to my manager and he said the policy is if you feel able to work then you just come in to work. Wtf…no isolation….? I’m supposed to wear a mask while I still have it but what use is that when I’m still touching everything that everyone else is. Anyway I’ve said I’ll be back on Wednesday – for better or worse.

I’ve just had a much needed shave which has made me feel human again.

Just had some pathetic maggot try to access my blank Facebook account. Yeah that’s going to end well for you, chum! I’d love to see what you do with all the no photos and no posts there on Facebook account. Oh wait, I did post “It’s my birthday, you cunts” on my birthday this year. That’s it. But no location, no photos, no nothing, it amuses me the effort morons will go to for no reward at the end of it.

Oh boo-fucking-hoo. There is a rather simple solution to avoid getting a speeding fine from a speeding camera. I wonder if you can work out what it is?!

Do they really think this is going to sell in 2022? Even “for business”? Come on, when was the last time you saw any business wishing they could hand out a Blackberry to all their employees.

This is going to sink.

Nokia don’t MAKE a powerful 5G phone, you fucking clown.

When people 50 years from now sit down and tell their small children all about the 2020’s, their children are absolutely going to reply “noooo….you’re making that shit up – humanity didn’t have THAT much leisure time to waste..did they…???”

I’m up nice and early (got out of bed at 8am, waiting until 9 for my water to heat for a bath) and that’s enough reason for me to write something. I am STILL waiting for my fucking screen protector to come from Germany. I am dying to take the Zenfone 9 out with me. Every little thing about it is better – except for the fact that this is the first Zenfone without a notification light. I really miss that. When you see it flashing for a new message it makes you feel like your little phone is trying to get your attention. Like the child I’ll mercifully never have tugging at my trouser leg, or the dog barking at me for seemingly no reason. Yes a notification light definitely beats both of those things.

Seeing as I’m up this early I may EVEN get my lump of wood in the car and take it to get cut up at B&Q…..if I can get myself motivated enough. I would imagine, being Monday morning, there’s not really going to be a lot of customers and thus cars getting in my way right now. My real hope is that they’re not only able to cut it into thirds, but cut it through the middle too so I can make the first 6 shelves for my American Cars collection. My flat is starting to look like a massive fucking car park here and this is not ideal.

At the end of the week there’s another strike day to be awkward about. It’s actually quite a good gig for me working on a strike day. All I do is go to 5 Post Offices, collect all their stuff (which is actually half a tonne sometimes) then take all that back to the depot, get help unloading it, and then fuck off home. Don’t even need to sort it. Meanwhile almost all my colleagues are sat around earning nothing at all – certainly not by the union, so determined to impress upon them that they “must stick together on this”, feeling all righteous and militant. Fuck feeling righteous and militant, I would rather earn some money, thanks!! I would also rather be loyal to a company that’s improved my mental health in a very real way. I don’t really feel like being loyal to a union that not only dismisses any feelings of employees who DON’T want to strike, but doesn’t appear to be remotely interested in the wellbeing of those who are going not earn any money that day to help them out in their foot stomping over the changes the company wants to bring in. Principles come for free. Food and electric bills do not.
