My little brother and his partner have outdone themselves this Christmas.
They got me what they've named Mr Flamboyant Potato Head.
Yes they're also fans of @robbotron.bsky.social and especially The Dark Room.

Can’t believe all of the anti-semites in the Labour Party defected to the Greens and [checks notes] immediately voted in a Jewish man as the new party leader, which is definitely something people being honestly accused of anti-semitism would do.

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.

Something I'd like to address. There's this idea that TQ+ folk are all 21 year-old art students... and all the 'normal' old school folk are LGB and entirely left behind and confused by 'pronouns'...
Every talk I give, know who the most outspoken trans allies are? Queer folk in their 70s!!

I spend so much time verifying everything now from art to cited sources to photos to historical references to citations to quotes to legal and medical information that it's really hard to fathom how much work AI has collectively added to the world, not reduced
Here's the reality this example illustrates:
It's not even just about people blindly trusting what ChatGPT tells them. LLMs are poisoning the entire information ecosystem. You can't even necessarily trust that the citations in a published paper are real (or a search engine's descriptions of them).

A Christmas treat from Freddie and me.
Man goes to the doctor, says he’s tired, depressed, life has no meaning.
Doctor says, “I have a great cure! You should talk to FIFA! They’re handing out meaningless awards for political clout!”
Man cries, his tiny hands dwarfed by a shiny golden mistake,
“But doctor… I have a FIFA award.”
