In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies.

I have translated some of the highlights

Balmore Estates Ltd are the company responsible and you can get all their contact details on google if you want to let them know what you think of their mural
NEW: Glasgow City Council has just approved a massive AI-generated mural to be painted in the city centre.

The illustration of Scottish elements inexplicably contains a bald eagle.

The planner says those upset about it are "keyboard warriors" who should "calm down"

People are dunking on this but all he's done wrong is be very open about the fact that Labours only plan for making anything better in any way is to ask businesses nicely if they'll do things, no worries if not.
Food inflation skyrocketed after the Tories & Reform’s botched Brexit. 😐

So I’m campaigning to bring prices down and cut the cost of living, starting with a UK favourite: the meal deal. 🥪

It’s time to give something back to the grafters out getting their lunch. ✅

This is all good and correct and I have just plain refused to pay fees for a decade (which is why I've shown like 3 times in that time), but it will never work because the art world is ultimately designed to push upper middle class culture & they don't care if the people who can't pay...
"Fees are a paywall on opportunity, and paywalls do not measure merit. They measure means. When a field built on ideals of access and expression charges for the act of showing up, the rhetoric of equity collapses into the economics of endurance."
Why Are We Paying for the Privilege of Rejection?
Application fees are one of the least examined but most pervasive forms of class stratification in the arts.

My new book, Bring Me Love, is out today! It explores how love magic and love divination appear in mostly European folklore, including a few things you can try for yourself!

IDK why we're so hell bent on banning kids from using the internet when it's clear those most at risk are 40+ year olds

Abolitionist apart from I think anyone involved in any affirmative decision for built in obsolescence in their products should be put in an oubliette.

Just fyi. On Friday, Lord Falconer, who's shepherding the assisted dying bill through the Lords, admitted that he thought it was fine if someone chose to die because they didn't have enough money for care

If you're left wing and support the principle, I really need you to look at the bill's details

I’m planning a column about women and games next year. I want to discuss how stories about women are told/received in games, and how does womens’ criticism exist- where/what is it? If you are a woman game writer/dev/critic and would like to share your thoughts, dm or email eaprice.work@gmail.com !

Me back when I was an office temp in my 20s.
Something unexpectedly helping me get more work done is having designated "no email" days where I just draw and don't go near the computer

In an ideal world the embrace of AI by vast swathes of academic management would at least mean that when it all goes to shit some of the biggest pricks in academia would lose their power but we don't live in an ideal world and there will ne no consequences for them.

Going to be honest I respect this full fronted gall of posting a clip and then just lying / being in total denial about what it actually shows far more than the MPs who have turned all their stationary 'westminster' Green. A real commitment to going down with the ship.
This is real leadership by Keir Starmer. A serious politician for serious times.

Which is more than you can say about the Green Party 🤡 that is Zack Polanski. Under him, thousands of British jobs would be lost, the security of our country would be at risk and British citizens would be worse off.
