Every novel should have a nice map at the start explaining the world of the book just like fantasy novels. I don’t care if it’s set in suburban Idaho or an inner city law firm, give me a nice map spread over two pages.

My nieces visited me in London this week so I thought we'd go and do a bit of subvertising, installing their art on the public transport network. Safe to say most people would rather see children's art in these spaces, instead of ads for crypto, private healthcare and gambling

I don’t want things to be optimized I want them to be beautiful

I’m going to teach the world what propreantepenultimate means, even if it’s the fifth to last thing I ever do.

listening to ai generated music is like putting microplastics in your heart

If you're still going around blaming all of society's problems on immigrants or trans teens playing volleyball or whatever, you're just hopeless. A completely pathetic serf who exists to be ruled over by your powerful overlords who view you as less than human

Pure fucking darkness these past few years

Many working class people have jobs that require them to work evenings and weekends, meaning they’re off work on quieter days of the week (Monday-Thursday), so it makes sense that working people party on Sunday evenings. These guys would know this if they weren’t idiot liberals

This is a perfect encapsulation of the flawed beauty of actual art vs the clueless corporate veneer that covers everything today

as a victim of groks sexual deepfakes, seeing high profile voices on the right twist this issue into an issue with free speech is so infuriating. real people are getting hurt by this and all they’re worried about is their pay check and propaganda tool. shame on every one of them

Congratulations to every AI boss for absolutely tanking the usefulness of the internet.

ai in art is the absolute worst application. i’d rather see a child’s doodles than ai. you can use it as a tool for eliminating rote tasks, but it should have no influence in the creative decision making process. my humble luddite two cents.

Making something with ai is just having an idea. Thats the easy part. Only people who have never had to execute their ideas think that coming up with a concept is impressive.

The end of the right to protest. Digital ID cards. Abolition of trial by jury. If you are worried about the authoritarian future, it is already here. The current Starmer government is the most anti-democratic of the modern era. Starmer is basically just a fluffer for Farage.

For those wondering why the Labour Government is behaving the way it is - here is a clue.

Imagine winning a stonking great majority after the country is fed up with the populist cruel and outright sinister Conservative party run of 14 years Then, when you have the opportunity to be open, considerate, strategic and forward thinking, you chose instead to be even worse than the Conservatives and Reform UK combined Keir Starmer, Yvette Cooper and Shabana Mahmood are all a disgrace As is any Labour MP who supports this cruel, inconsiderate and frankly inhumane approach to managing our asylum system My dislike of the Labour party is now at peak Boris Johnson partying in Downing street and telling lies about it levels Shame on them for prostituting their integrity to appease the populist far right - how utterly disgusting, pathetic and sad

There's not enough words to describe the contempt we should have for a Labour Government who thinks people like this should represent them - let alone cabinet ministers. Where are the MPs with decency and basic humanity? Where are their red lines? Beyond time to speak up.

No, I don't want to get a summary from AI. No, I don't want writing assistance from AI. No, I don't want an AI overview of my google search. Please STOP stuffing this AI down our throats!
