@ACJSissons One of the genuine dangers of AI is that it will make it very easy to absolutely flood the internet with convincing sounding false information. It’s never been more important to teach kids about sourcing info online.

One thing I’ve noticed with twitter specifically is: when new colleagues/friends join it, they have no idea what to do. I’ve used it for ages, so I know where to look, who to trust and who to be suspicious of. It is v powerful for me, but it relies on a lot of tacit knowledge

Good piece by @RMCunliffe on how the internet (or more specifically search and social platforms) have turned bad. Complements @doctorow’s seminal piece on the Enshittification of platforms wired.com/story/tiktok-p…

The internet keeps us on it as long as possible not by being helpful or engaging but by simply eliminating all the alternatives. The pop-ups and the trolls and the sponsored posts have won, writes @RMCunliffe. Free to read for a limited time 🔓 Thread ⬇️

@jlukeroberts I’m just focusing on the big drum horse that is insisting on Tokyo Drifting the whole way

Spoke to Graham earlier this week. He'd been in extensive meetings with police about the demo, all of which had been respectfully agreed. theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/m…

This thread is fascinating. No one is being told to swear allegiance. Or even asked. It’s an option if you want it. Grrr. Bloody news. Making things look worse than they are.
dan barker@danbarker

Here is a very short thread on this news story, and how the story has become bigger than it probably deserves to be: If you read the text the BBC put out here, it says "Public *asked* to swear allegiance to King Charles" That's not quite the case...

UK theatre friends - we are in search of a set builder, preferably based in the south. Any recommendations?

I can’t think of a better way to be remembered than as a sharp mouthed, kind hearted, dog loving, wickedly funny queer icon and champion of the working classes. RIP Paul O’Grady, you are an inspiration to us all.

Things currently annoying me: the phrase 'ticking time-bomb'. All time-bombs are ticking. The tick is implied. ..Unless you are comparing with a modern, digital timebomb, in which case the phrase implies an old-fashioned analogue clockwork bomb Ugh. I've overthought it again.

@Plux_uk @MorganMagic Oh no! I guess super glue? Or some sort of Repair Shop style 2 part epoxy ceramic filler? But probably just super glue.

@helenarney Step, kick, limp, sit down, cup of tea. I knew there was a reason I preferred Sondheim to Fosse.
