Worst. PM. Ever.

What a complete bastard. He should be grateful no one is shooting him?

Don't look at this unflattering portrait of Gina Rinehart. It upsets her.

@alexkidman good for you! I'm doing the MS walk/run/roll next weekend, 5 km around Albert Park lake. Always a great turnout for that one.

Forget the old woman who lived in a shoe: A Michigander in her mid-thirties made a home in a Family Fare supermarket sign for nearly a year, local outlet MLive reported. The unnamed woman lived rent-free and went unnoticed by shoppers and workers until a construction crew working on repairs to the building’s roof stumbled upon her humble abode two weeks ago, Midland Police Officer Brennon Warren told the outlet. “She essentially made it home,” Warren said, describing how officers discovered a cozy apartment complete with desk, houseplant, computer printer, coffeemaker, and a cubbyhole of food. It’s unclear why and how the woman chose to build her nest there; police said she’s employed and turned down housing assistance when offered. When she was discovered, some of the store workers said they recognized her from around the property and that she occasionally seemed to vanish into thin air. They now have a new name for the legendary eave-dweller: “The Roof Ninja.” Authorities and Family Fare are working to help her find a new home.

I watched Unfrosted so that you don't have to.

Seriously, don't.

Seriously unfunny movie.

I can see how this movie would be funny to a huge chunk of America who seem to believe that the 60's was the golden age of comedy, but for the rest of us, nope. I honestly don't know how so many big names signed up to this - did they even read the script?

Tldr; Unfrosted - 1 out of 5 pop tarts.

@ppossej I had not heard ot it so looked it up on IMDB. Jerry Seinfeld wrote and directed, I think there's your problem.

    Amazon is filled with garbage ebooks. Here’s how they get made.

    It’s partly AI, partly a get-rich-quick scheme, and entirely bad for confused consumers.

    It's great to ride a cycle to get around, but you may have your limits. What are they? @bikenut asks:

    Q3. Do you have ride/no-ride rules? For example - I won’t ride if it is icy.
