"And I never say no"
We need to have a serious talk about the way "AI companion" apps not only prey on the vulnerable, but are priming their users to ignore consent and to conflate love with control.
We need AI regulations across so many sectors, but this area is particularly horrifying.

Rian Johnson is really good at morality plays
Knives out: the upper middle class are squabbling vicious children who do not deserve their inheritance
Glass onion: the new elite are the stupidest murderous cunts alive and deserve your scorn
Wake up dead man: those preaching anger as salvation are leading you to death, hope and kindness matter

2. Does this need to be said by me

It's amazing how asking these will get keep you out of trouble (that is, if you actually have sense to begin with)

I’ve been trying very hard to not be an asshole as I get older. Often, that just means keeping my mouth shut and nodding along.

Can't imagine why the horrible bigot who played a large role in the UK's anti-trans moral panic thinks people should be required to stay in touch with toxic family members
Yeah, no thanks.
Stop guilting people about being estranged from family members. It someone is they likely have personal reasons for being so.

“Send SAE to ‘A’ from Balmoral’.
Looking at old copies of The Stage and found this casting call for the following year's "Labyrinth". Whilst we know it now as a Jim Henson / Terry Jones / David Bowie's crotch family classic, it doesnt 'alf sound dodgy to modern eyes, doesnt it?
