2025 was... A Year for me. TLDR; my spine exploded. No art was made, but lot of thinking about art was done! So, I started a Patreon to do my thinking aloud. If you'd like to join me in re-embracing the joy of making, climb aboard! www.patreon.com/posts/despit...

On the drive home for Christmas and just stopped to grab a drink, a small pre-packaged (almost empty) chicken wrap, and a bag of crisps. This fulfilled my “three things cost a tenner” analysis of the cost of living in this country. Oh Ireland.

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.
We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Only ever translated a couple of short stories, but having once volunteered to edit a friend's memoir I can say that it's twice the chore to tidy up a piece of prose than to generate it. Like building a wall where every brick requires another trip to the builders' yard
Hard no to this: French publisher Harlequin has told translators that their work will now be done by AI. They can ‘revise’ AI translations at much lower rate. It’s a subsidiary of Harper Collins so treat this as a test for rollout elsewhere

Resetting all the filters to "I'm an adult who has no fear of cursing", has resurrected many of the Irish #Speirgorm that'd vanished from my feed
this thing hides posts it judges as ‘rude’, by some US standard. Thereby silencing most of the conversations in Ireland and Scotland, at least.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
