Great to spend some time chatting about life, the universe and everything with my friend Peter McDade, who was in town recently to promote his novel KING CAL.
In related news, I now finally own a physical copy of one of the books I’ve narrated. 😊

With so many people in the world, it's weird that we all know who literally the worst one is, right? Objectively speaking, when you look at the grand scheme of things, we all know who the worst person on earth is. That's kind of amazing, in a nightmarish way.

The very first Star Wars comic I ever read. Didn’t even know there was a series continuing past the movie, until I saw this issue on the spinner rack at the grocery store.

This isn't the first trans pride flag raising at Salt Lake City Hall, but it is the first time for the new Sego Visibility Flag they made in response to Utah's ban on pride flags on government property. Project Rainbow and other orgs worked with the city for this to kick off Trans Awareness Week.

So, it would be a sequel, or a reboot? Cause I'd actually dig seeing the two of them team up somewhere down the line.

It has now been almost exactly 24 hours since Trump last posted to Truth Social. This is approaching his 1st Impeachment record.
Trump has been wildly quiet today. A single, probably AI generated "own-voice" post and then... Nothing.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.

Is it really necessary to-

Music is basically a detective novel where the musicians are the suspects/criminals, the listener is the detective and of course the music is the crime. The listener tries to determine what happened and what was the motivation, while the musicians try to obscure this, so they can get away with it.
