This is not a punch in the face; anyone who considers it one needs to examine their self-worth.
This woman is a fraud. She is not an author, nor has she ‘written’ any books. She just allowed AI to spew out garbage and ‘published’ them with equally as puerile AI cover art. It’s a punch in the face to people who give their heart and soul to write original material to call idiots like this authors. But, this is how the world is going. And, before you mock, your job is next on the chopping block. AI generated material is pure garbage for people with zero intelligence.

abc.net.au/news/2026-10-19/h… If people behaved and did the right thing, the government would have a lot more money to spend on infrastructure and services. How much will it cost to protect MPs? What is the cost when MPs' offices are less accessible and people can't drop in? If the government could spend more on things that improve lives, there would be less crime.

I am testing Motel AI, Harry, to handle my end-to-end processes, and because it has full oversight, it flagged an issue with how I was on-billing GST. Harry does my work better and faster than I do.

I draw the line at watching an execution if the guy is in a wheelchair.

The Kelly Clarkson thing is very interesting.

I asked Motel AI to action an email and I told him what it was. He corrected me and performed the correct action.

Pan-fried wontons with Kewpie Mayo and Chilli Crisp. My stylist has the day off.

Over this year I have gradually given my Motel AI more tasks. First it was parts of a task then I gave it the complete task. Today I gave it the conditions for the task. Next I automate the task completely.

I have been watching YouTube videos about prepping for the coming famine. I can either prep and die later or not prep and die sooner.

I have muted the word 'Tiger' for 7 days.

Mark was playing with the Meta Quest VR. He was exploring a space and found other users there. Someone approached him and said, 'Do you want to play with my balls?' I doubt it was in a sports context. Poor Mark. He has been scared by this experience.

Instead of cleaning the cat’s teeth, I decided to make cinnamon rolls.

It never feels like the right time to clean your cats teeth.
