Genuinely if you care about the climate, human rights, racism, sexism, extraction capitalism, drinking water, artistic expression, imperialism, or literally any of the issues plaguing society and you're still using generative AI, then no you don't, and I'm not exaggerating.

Related fact: Mary Wollstonecraft had a very intense, close friendship with a woman called... Fanny Blood.
Reading about people buried in Belfast Cemetery and a woman called Fanny Craig who seems to have been buried in 1887 using her maiden name despite being married and her husband inscribing her headstone with love, because her husband's surname was Hair.

Again well done to the @scottishbooktrust.bsky.social New Writers Award class of 2025. Fab showcase tonight, and such an amazing community to be part of. Always worth coming down to Edinburgh for. (I could stay home and watch the live stream but where's the fun in that?)

all the professors and deans are like 'my contacts with mr epstein were purely in the service of my profession and I had no idea' and then his emails are just like 'can u make lolita robot?'
"Epstein had pitched [art school dept chair] on a potential art exhibit titled 'Statutory' that would showcase underage models dressed to look older than they were."
He was really just upfront with it.

Sorry, not gonna do "agree to disagree" on genAI, even with seemingly thoughtful, knowledgable folks.
If you're using it, you're asking me to "agree" to you stealing my life's work and the life's work of everyone I love for your lil plagiarism toy.
I don't. I never will. WE never will. Period.

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

I know cis people don't realize the cruelty, so with gentleness and empathy for them, let me try to explain.
Being trans is difficult. Instinctively, you already know this because you think it would be better not to be trans.

This explicit transphobia is spelled out in excruciating detail. Direct from Cass again.

Just imagine, today, if children got referred to "clinical support" if they expressed any interest in "gay feelings" with the Government saying that approval for them to be allowed to express being homosexual at school would only be likely in very limited circumstances.
That's what this guidance is

This draft guidance reproduces Cass insisting that clinicians must be involved in decisions about *social transition* which actually should be none of their damn business
They take the line that this "non-directive" intervention should force things to be "keeping options open and flexible"...

So - after a delay at check in because the machine for validating key cards failed, the shower pressure in this room is also dodgy as fuck. Just about managed a wash under the rain shower but no chance with the hose one. Not impressed tbh.

A pre check in cider. I've also just realised that I've had more booze in the last week than I've had since New Year's Day. I'm putting that down to my new found car ownership status, although I guess the money I might have spent on alcohol is now going on running costs for said vehicle.
