When it comes to trans rights, the BBC has been reversing through the marketplace of ideas, smashing into fruit carts. But it's interesting that its conservative critics still regard the broadcaster as a font of pro-trans propaganda. How odd! Perhaps a few more concessions will win them over?
Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Always amused when my workplace gets deliveries from "DEVICE TECHNOLOGIES", quite possibly the most nothing-to-see-here-officer company name ever.

Some thirty inches from my nose
The frontier of my Person goes,
And all the untilled air between
Is private pagus or demesne.

Stranger, unless with bedroom eyes
I beckon you to fraternize,
Beware of rudely crossing it:
I have no gun, but I can spit.

I don't think I've ever been prouder of my home town.
“Closeups show human faces distorted beyond recognition, sprouting extra appendages. The bodies of what appear to be dogs horrifically merge with human figures. Happy holidays indeed.”
Town's Huge Christmas Mural Was Generated Using AI, Resulting in Ghastly Chthonic Horrors
An enormous new mural near London, depicting a crowded Christmas scene, has drawn outrage and mockery from passersby.

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

Talk about horror versions of Pokémon and Animal Crossing reminded me of this thing I did a while back, figuring that AC: New Horizons was ripe for a cosmic horror spin-off…

God, it's the worst when you have to do the Big Shop and end up being chosen by the Service Barcode Scanner to become the new Manager in order to vanquish the infestation of otherworldly shoplifters.

Ugh.

There's something just innately satisfying to me about the double-tap of the space bar when finishing a thought that I'm trying to untrain in myself.

Thankfully, most word processing software can fix it automatically for me when I slip up...

Warwick Caldwell Johnson, maybe? Same high-energy exaggeration vibe, but coming from from a different angle.
