my NYE DJ-ing has been scuppered by 2020's most persistent buzzkill, the novel coronavirus, so I thought I'd record a nice upbeat mix of global grooves to accompany whatever you have planned, or not planned. enjoy!

(also works for other days of the year)

fair play tbh, I couldn't give a presentation on three Es
At political cabinet today, Morgan McSweeney gave a presentation on “three Es” on how the government can connect with voters - emotion, empathy and evidence.

Am told he said the government currently has a “deficit in emotion”

eh. he weren't all that
It's kinda ridiculous that William Shakespeare wrote all those plays. Look how many there are, and how many are absolutely bangers. Ridiculous!

In nine days we will release Fermi's Wake in paperback and combined e-book edition, but my favourite form of you paying money for Fermi's Wake remains buying the season pass through @scarletferret.com. So that season pass will not only get the new combined-ebook edition, but also an exclusive bonus.

2026 has started as bleakly as 2025 finished, almost as if there is no clear demarcation between years??? but! regardless, I am very excited about the full cast audio drama of my weird cyberpunk detective hallucination, The House on Utopia Way, editing of which is well underway

in the meantime...

The world is coming apart at the seams.Reality is relative. The concept of truth no longer applies. This is all wrong. And detective Johnny Orange is going to find out what's really going on - or lose...

probably the Labour MP who has plummeted the most in my estimation
First time I saw or heard anything from Lammy was when he gave a good speech in parliament about the Windrush scandal. I was impressed and thought he might be a decent guy. I was wrong af about him, he's a fucking monster too

grown adults need to submit a verified birth certificate to access a spicy fan fic but the government unfortunately cannot condemn Nazis And Child Abuse dot com
Keir Starmer's spokesman asked if Government will still use X now it posts indecent images of children, replies "we always keep communication channels under review to reach public in most appropriate way possible”

"Operators are under obligation to act appropriately. We always hope they would do"

I think the AI angle of this is obscurant. It doesn’t matter that grok is “an AI” whatever you take that to mean. Suppose X hired a team of guys to photoshop the clothes off of women and children whenever anyone asks. That’s functionally identical what happening here. It’s not complicated.
A functional country would shut Grok down permanently. Like, immediately. Right now. Last week. Whatever. Just flip the switch. Obviously.

reading a leaked draft of Richard Osman's final Thursday Murder Club book and it's a doozy. all the previous books are revealed to have been an elaborate multi-part roleplay exercise designed to help four senile pensioners remember which of them committed a real murder (spoiler - it was all of them)

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc)

not sure anything in human history has aged as poorly as that bit in Star Trek Discovery where Jason Isaacs namechecks Elon Musk as an aspirational utopian figure on the level of the Wright Brothers or the creator of warp drive, rather than a world leader in the field of human debasement
