I heard there was a Cohen song,

And all the Christians got it wrong,

But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?

‘Cause you see its about getting laid,

It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,

But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Been thinking this exactly. Like yeah, people are punchy and paranoid and that’s going to lead to unfortunate and potentially harmful mistakes, and why precisely might we all be feeling that way
y'know, if tech companies weren't so fired up to call every single thing "AI" it would be a lot easier to distinguish "ML spam filter that is well-sandboxed and tuned on your emails" from "giant context and IP-eroding foundation model that makes people paranoid and unhappy"
since the "google is now training gemini on your email contents" thing keeps bumping around here: it's _not happening_. I say this not to defend google but because I know a lot of people that have broken their filtering and made their lives much more annoying from sheer misinformation.

As well as drawing himself mourning the unfortunate beast, he once drew it going for a walk with William Morris’ wife Jane. (Rossetti was having a thing with Jane, but it remains unclear why both she and the wombat have haloes)

Really important advice.

And if you insist on posting these things or keeping them up after you've been informed they're fake, that's going to be a quick block.

"Well, it could be true!" It's not.

"Well, you can imagine." Nope.

"Well, they do it!" Yeah, no.
Look folks gen AI videos are out in the wild so if you weren't already being careful about sharing rage bait videos then now is a great time to start

If you can't trace a video back to a trusted source then I recommend leaving it where it is, like a slice of bologna you found on the street

It’s here! ’The Prince of All Rats’, Fallen London‘s Exceptional Story for November, was written by yours truly. I hope you enjoy the seduction of our self-styled prince!
"May I?" he asks, and he holds out a paw, his claws beckoning. He kisses the back of your hand.

The self-declared Prince of All Rats has the manners, bearing, and ambition to rule – and a personal interest in your acquaintance. Will you help the Fifth City to accept his claim?

So glad this article is out! Finding these (heartrending) poems in the archive and realising what they meant remains one of my top research moments ever - absolute magic. I didn't know what I was looking for, except by instinct, and I found it; queer love hiding in plain sight.

In fantastic news for medievalists, 'Perfume and Milk' from Florence + the Machine's new album Everybody Scream contains references to Julian of Norwich's Revelations of Divine Love, and allusions to the General Prology of the Canterbury Tales (as well as, I think, the opening of Fitt II of SGGK)

And this is even getting a diagnosis in the first place. I first spoke to someone about my symptoms when I was 19, wasn't taken seriously, and got zero help.

A few years, a different doctor, and a full mental breakdown later, someone FINALLY listened and saw what it was.
OCD can be utter hell, and yet it still gets trivialised by many, including in the media and by people who should know better.

Why do all these tech bros choose to name things after Tolkien's work? He would be horrified by them!
A US tech bro corp in the US has decided the night sky should go away. They've made that decision for everyone on Earth.

Naturally they've named the first searing orbital array (many times brighter than the moon) after Eärendil, the light bearer, from Tolkien's work

been using the new settings for a few days now, and instead of every other post being AI slop, I get one every few rows at BEST (usually untagged)

for both artists and clients: if you use pinterest to make moodboards or plan designs, highly recommend making sure these are turned OFF

Those people are stupid. Every tool should be on the table and this is a very specifically powerful one for a lot of folks
For any Catholic, the sight of a Eucharistic Procession being turned away at the gates of the destination is the embodiment of Jesus being denied entrance. You don't have to be Catholic to get the symbolism in that!

Oh it’s world mental health day again

Stop telling us to ‘talk’. It’s not a simple solution to anything.

Lots of therapy is actually inadequate or inappropriate for the issue at hand
