Again… if you can, please do, stocks are always lower than they’d like. If you can’t, just spread the word anyway x

To say I’m honoured is an understatement.

Thank you so much @baftaofficial.bsky.social and especially @baftagames.bsky.social for having me.

Here’s to fabulous years ahead 🥂
Email from BAFTA saying that they have accepted me as a member. I know, I can’t quite believe it either.

We as a society are doomed if this AI wank is accepted as “good enough” to advertise to people.

Listen and watch from the beginning as you’ll likely miss the wonderful proofreading. The ending is similarly astonishing.

Two people pelvically thrusting at each other while fixing you with their gaze. They’re both wearing brightly coloured knitted bikinis… and they’re conjoined at the tops and bottoms… honestly weird as hell. Love it.

Without downloading any new pics, what's it like dating you?
A gif of a drink being poured… and it never stops pouring. Too drunk to get the straw in my mouth. Probably one of the weirdest gifs on the internet. Male and female hipsters wearing a conjoined bikini… the top and bottoms are connected to the ones the other’s wearing. Oh, and the bikinis are multicoloured. And… knitted. And they’re both facing each other doing pelvic thrusts. Seriously, this is a weird thing to describe.

I’ve never seen a hug say “fuck you” to a US president before…
Starmer greeting Zelensky with a warm hug. Which was a refreshing change of style from yesterday’s ridiculous pro-Russia posturing by Darth Tango and JD Couch-fucker.

In a lovely touch of irony, the Nemesis System just reached its boney finger into my phone, telling me to remember who killed it…
Copy from Jason Schrier’s Bloomberg article on the shuttering of Monolith Games studio: "The quality of too many of our new releases has really missed the mark," JB Perrette, head of games and streaming for Warner Bros., wrote in the memo. "We need to make some substantial changes to our portfolio/team structure if we are to commit the necessary resources to get back to a 'fewer but bigger franchises' strategy."

If AI companies were legit they wouldn’t have to sneak in the back door and adjust laws that will allow them the freedom to do and steal whatever the hell they want.

Private Eye column headed “CASHING IN CHIPS” The article starts… KEIR STARMER's big speech last month on how artificial intelligence will "turbocharge growth and boost living standards" was more than just hype; there were plenty of proposals to give the industry a regulatory leg-up. Standing to benefit are a series of Al businesses held by funds managed by Entrepreneur First - the group controlled by Matt Clifford, the man who wrote the very plan Starmer was pushing. Clifford's firm, co-founded with former McKinsey colleague Alice Bentick, claims to have been behind $11bn worth of Al start-ups. Entrepreneur First's portfolio includes AI firms such as Tractable, Qantev and Unitary. Sonantic, which specialises in "creating hyper-realistic Al-generated voices from text" was acquired by Spotify in 2022. Another, Atlas ML, which provides "free and open-source tools tailored for machine-learning workflows" , was flogged to Meta in 2019. Such companies stand to develop significantly from the 50 proposals in the Clifford-penned Al Opportunities Action Plan. These include "unlocking data assets in the public and private sector" and changing Continued on next photo: “CASHING IN CHIPS” continued: “…regulations - not least a rethink of intellectual property laws, which are "hindering innovation and undermining our broader ambitions for Al, as well as the growth of our creative industries". Clifford's plan presents the UK as falling behind competitors. "The EU has moved forward with an approach that is designed to support Al innovation while also enabling rights holders to have control over the use of content they produce," he says. But this doesn't tell the full story. The EU did relax copyright laws to allow text and data-mining in 2019 - before the ascent of generative AI, which creates content rather than analysing it. Since then, Brussels has been trying to limit the damage from the ensuing legalised copyright theft. Last year it enacted the EU AI Act, which allows copyright holders to prevent material being used for machine learning. That's the theory, anyway. Should Starmer's Al action plan provoke a race to the bottom on copyright protection, the big winners would principally be AI tech bros (and sisters) like Clifford and Bentinck.

Deleted my earlier post.

I stand by the sentiments but it’s occurred to me that in my “Commander In Cheeto”-inspired anger I’m accidentally forcing that PoS onto your timeline and that’s horrendous. Apologies.

Have a photo of my dog. She’s a good dog. When I get back home I will give her big pets.
Good doggo fast asleep on the back of an armchair. Yeah, that probably sounds a little odd. You know the back of an armchair? Well, she’s laid across the entire back of it. On her side. I don’t know why she does it either, but she finds it incredibly comfortable. So actually, yes, I do know why she does it… because she finds it incredibly comfortable.

“I hear you’re a racist now, Feather?”
Man standing at stone wall… specifically the man in Father Ted saying “I hear you’re a racist now, Father.” when Father Ted was indeed being *spectacularly* racist. Still quite odd seeing it now…

But…
The Irritating Gentleman, by German painter Berthold Woltze (1874) Yes, believe it or not, men in the 19th century were also cunts! I know right?!?! I’m off down to the British Museum full of purely British artefacts to see if there are and other instances of men being utter twats… it’s can’t be a huge issue throughout history so I don’t think I’ll be there very long.

A sticker emblazoned with the words “Always Punch Nazis” If you have the chance to punch a Nazi, grab it with both hands. This may leave you with no hands with which to punch said Nazi but fear not, this merely gives you the opportunity to head butt them. “Never look a gift horse in the mouth”? No, get on the horse and stampede the fucking Nazi. It’s very fucking simple. Musk fails to understand that our grandparents fought in WWII so he had the OPTION to do that salute, not be forced. That he chose to do that really shows how much of a bastard he truly is. He’s spitting on the memory of your grandparents. Fuck him.

Facts 🙌🏻
A screenshot of a tweet from the National Park service that says “If you encounter a bear in the woods, stay calm. Identify yourself by making noise so the bear knows you’re a human. We recommend using your voice. Waving and showing off your opposable thumb means nothing to the bear.” I would also add to this “don’t smear yourself in honey like Halsin. This won’t make you more fuckable like you see in the ‘2024 Druid Thirst Pic of the Year’… the bear will just see it as a marinade.”

Honestly, really cut up about this, have had SUCH a laugh on there. Really is a chapter closing after 15 years.

Just had a Twitter notification from Musk, just like I would with any accounts I want to immediately get notified of as soon as they hit send.

I blocked him ages ago.

The action I took to limit misinformation has been overridden by one who relishes it. He’s invaded my privacy.

Fuck him and fuck X

And a VERY Happy New Year to you xx
Calendar photo of a rather seggsy bear laid back on a Scandinavian beach in a pose which says “I’m comfortable in myself and yes, if you want to try and take me I probably won’t put up too much of a fight”. The word January is emblazoned across the top of the picture in a VERY provocative orange and a 70’s font which wouldn’t look out of place in your dad’s porn mag collection.
