Like, Grok should've been taken off the air IMMEDIATELY, either by the company or by government.
happy(?) new year everyone, for my first piece of 2026 I wrote about Grok's *still*-ongoing CSAM blitz and the troubling, embarrassing silence of lawmakers in the U.S. and U.K. who've spent the past year censoring the internet for the sake of "child safety" yet are saying and doing nothing about X:
Something Abominable Is Happening on Elon Musk’s X. Everyone in Congress Should Be Ashamed.
An app the U.S. and U.K. governments use has devolved into a source of A.I. porn. Lawmakers are keeping dangerously mum.

I finished Dropsite Massacre yesterday and let me tell you, it is one hell of a ride. It’s an instant recommend for anyone interested in the Horus Heresy, and a masterclass in telling an expansive multi-POV story that respects and fleshes out each viewpoint - all in under 400 pages.
Well deserved!

Gonna be leaving this in 2025 I think.
It’s my 2nd attempt at the game, I’ve put about 90 hours into it in total and it’s just not fun at this point? I get such limited time to play nowadays that it feels silly to be pushing on with a game that I’m just not enjoying. Feels bad to DNF such…

If you love a book, especially an indie-published one, tell the world! They can always use the help. And the authors (and publishers) love hearing it🖤☠️

House is finally festive as we’ve put up the tree and all decorations. Did we have a Christmas film on in the background to help us along?
Nope. Dambusters.

Good innings this year, didn’t reach last year’s record (Christmas Eve!) but with a solid plan and training we’re confident that we can mount a real challenge next year
