If you put up a union jack or George’s Cross in middle of a hate campaign against migrants, asylum seekers & people of colour that used those flags as branding, you knew what you were doing even if you didn’t have sufficient courage in your abysmal convictions to say it. This must be said.

All of the Warhammer stories I've written!
When I wandered into my local Games Workshop store as a kid more than 20 years ago I'd never have believed I'd get the chance to do this!
It's so fun & there's just as much wonder in the great, grimdark world of Warhammer as when I first encountered it 🖤

So loss making OpenAI is now begging for US government money to finance its research based on unproven promises of riches to follow at some unspecified date. Is anyone else recalling renaissance alchemists persuading rich patrons to support them because they'd be turning lead into gold any day now?
