It is morally wrong to want a computer to be sentient. If you owned a sentient thing, you would be a slaver. If you want sentient computers to exist, you just want to create a new kind of slavery. The ethics are as simple as that. Sorry if this offends

Men in balaclavas set fire to a mosque in East Sussex last night. It's only appearing on the BBC's local coverage, rather than its main national headlines, despite coming just a week after the (also under-reported) firebombing of an asylum hotel in London last week

Absolutely gripping, this. Like MASH set in someone's D&D setting - and really thought-provoking. One of my favourite best reads this year @aptshadow.bsky.social

One of the weirdest things about publishing is that you can have 9-year old trad books that still sell but readers pass over your indie stuff.
It just indie. No difference at all apart from marketing and distribution.

Shout out to Queen of Swords press still fighting the good fight. And Black Shuck Books who are the thing that goes bump in the night
@auntyfoxspirit.bsky.social is first to come to my mind! @britfantasysoc.bsky.social award-winning small press
As that AI vanity press has been grabbling all the attention, let's platform some awesome small and independent presses instead. Reply with a shoutout and link to a publisher that deserves celebrating. Obviously, I'm going to get the ball rolling with @starsandsabers.bsky.social. Now, over to you.
