This is gonna be really interesting to see how it plays out, she’s been fired from her position they appointed to her, excommunicated from the family, they’re making public statements that she wasn’t important to them... what does she got to lose at this point

Some of you may remember the old Public Voice project I started on here yonks ago. Well... 12 years on, I've built it. Though it's come along a bit since then.

It's just a bit of fun, but now that I can use AI to help with the database and backend stuff that I couldn't do previously, I've gotten a bit carried away and ended up putting over 200 hours into it.

https://publicvoice.co

I've added many of the features discussed in the original thread, plus a few extras.

- Customisable utility column for Updates, Saved and Popular threads
- @mentions, basic markdown, 60-second edit/delete window, notes
- In conversation: the latest posts and discussions as they happen
- In pictures: the latest images from every thread in one grid
- Dark and light themes
- Topics (if/when needed)

Coming soon/currently building

- Private messaging
- Chat room

I'm also working on a new addition called Spaces.

Users will essentially be able to create their own Public Voice, open or invite-only, and build their own communities using the Public Voice template. That's still in development, though.

Feel free to sign up and get involved. It'd be great to see some more familiar faces on there.

It's in beta, so far from perfect. Tell me what breaks or what's missing and I'll fix it. I like the idea of this being an open community project, so if anyone wants to get involved, or has any suggestions or ideas for improvements, all are more than welcome.

Thanks for the birthday messages. I went here for Michelin starred food. Apparently they've only recently received there star and haven't adjusted there prices yet. The food was really good, but i'd had Covid and my sense of taste was around 20% it's usual abilities!!

all this talk of people turning 50.. feeling old..
have been a casual employee my entire career pretty much, and have been at my current role the last 8 years..

worked out a few days ago, that them telling me i dont progress through diffferent grades as im a casual is utter horseshit, and i should have at least had the opportunity to progress at least 6 times in that period.

i have cautiously raised this with my team leader who was on the face of it supportive and asked me to provide the clauses in the industrial award covering my job stating this, which i did..
especially after i found an article from the Service union which covered a super similar situation at another local Council re not getting graded and they go a $30k backpay ..

which is awesome, but im also then hyper aware that might just awaken sleeping dogs and then im unemployed afterwards.

then laying in bed, doomscrolling before sleep and legit instagram fed my like 15 videos in a row about CV's making you unemployable as your over 40, and then a 60 minutes investigation into who ATS systems and AI are basically automatically culling anyone over 50 ..

legit i have not had an actual job interview since 1999 .. its been all casual employment, which basically meet the boss for a coffee, dazzle them with my razzle.. and then start working.

but at 49, by razzle is decidedly less dazzle, and AI basically can do my job.

i feel a distinct sense of holding onto the bottom rung of a greasy ladder and my grip is slowly giving way..

A great £1 accumulator win tonight, I always stick a quid on Liverpool, sometimes for the score but most recently for their win alongside other games to make it a little more interesting. Real Madrid were the sticking point tonight however as they were losing 3:1 with 15 mins to go, but they fought back and scored 3 goals, incredible luck really!

I'm trying to convince my wife to let me make a specific roman chicken w/potatoes recipe that uses anchovies (combined w/white wine, vinegar, preserved capers etc — salty acidic stuff) and she's battling me a bit.

She's nerdy for all types of jarred / canned olives and absolutely loves Worcestershire sauce (which actually has anchovies in it)... but she's battling me.

Do I just make it and blow her mind? I've had a version of it in the past... It's pretty much this: https://cooking.nytimes.com/reci…

(although I don't know why they call this a cacciatore... I thought that usually had tomatoes?)

Received the brand vector for a fairly well-known brand here in the UK - by no means huge, but a lot of people here would know it.

It has a keyline rectangle around the wordmark.

The keyline, in their own brand vector file, was a rectangle with a specific stroke width set.

It wasn't an outlined form.

wtf, guise.

WHAT THE FUCK.
