Good God it's muggy, but you already know that.

Bring on some cooling rain. Speaking of rain, we were one minute into our journey to work and a Falcon Ute coming in the opposite direction comes heavily into a swooping corner and does a nice drift, accidental of course. He managed to correct it but we both woke up pretty quickly. Then as we pass the motorway off ramp there's a car that's come off too quickly and slammed into the kerb smashing his front wheel to bits along with his suspension. A tow truck was there already as we passed. Both these things before 5:15 am Goodness knows what it was like out there for the next couple of hours.

A nice fine sprinkle of rain on a once dry and dusty road, great combination for a skid pan.

I saw a comment somewhere for this game: https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html

It's so stupid. But somehow so addictive.

Anyway I played it for a bit (....) and it turns out once you sell enough paperclips you basically enslave the earth and turn all its resources in to paperclips, then send drones out in to space and convert the entire universe.... in to paperclips.

It gets slightly unhinged. I've stopped playing now.
