This Is Just To Say
I have turned off
the AI features
that were in
the update
and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize
Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying
Look, someone should invite me on a podcast
I could read a story or a poem
I could tell a dad joke or two
I could talk at 1.7 speed for reasons unrelated to caffeine
I could vomit up theories, or talk about my novels, or about how I want to write a nonfiction book
Hit me up
I've just realised Murder Motel Mattress is a perfect midwest emo band name
"the youngest says she’ll never be able to afford to buy, so I want to help."
YOU HAVE A HOUSE SHE CAN LIVE IN YOU FUCKING CLOWN
I have a shoebox in my house, it is taking up much needed space, but nobody will pay the very reasonable £1m I believe it is worth
THE INFAMY
My feet are very provocative, it is true
Benj, you can't shower in the cafe. You just can't
Can we talk about how harassment and borderline stalking of trans women by gender critical activists has become entirely normalised?
Why can’t a trans woman do a bloody Parkrun without having her privacy violated and her data amassed on a website?!
Had a call with new team members yesterday, two said "my name is X, but you can call me Y"
I phoned them both after to check "would you PREFER Y or do you just say that to make it easier for people who look like me?"
One of each.
Someone isn't having a bath later.
Extending sympathy, endo sounds ghastly.
We got one of those "try it for 100 days" mattresses. Wife wasn't keen. On day 70ish my lad climbed into bed with us and had an ungodly nosebleed all over the place (low platelets). Plan to return scuppered. Murder motel mattress remains.
This tiger looks like he drank all the milk, and all the orange juice, and all daddy's beer
What does Donald Trump's pet monkey wear?
Fake orangutan
This is a cover pal!
We've cracked 10K at last! 🥳
Things have gone more slowly than usual due to my health and <gestures around>, but they're going!
They're doing falafel diplomacy on Terra Flux 🥙🪐🪐
Actor Isiah Whitlock, Jr. (RIP) playing the character Clay Davis on The Wire. The photo is tight on his face, and he looks grim and a bit haunted. The text underneath says “Sheeeeeeeeeeeet” with nearly 3 lines of e’s.
Quote post with something good that lasted longer than the Confederacy (1861-1865)
The Wire (2002–2008)
I believe everyone in Hollywood should "Lean In" to adapting my written works into a huge cinematic canon that makes me into every nerd's unproblematic favourite
(am I doing this right?)
Run your mouth, when I'm not around, it's ready to achieve
absolutely incredible example of AI making up problems to solve that aren’t real problems
nobody needs “inspiration” on how they like their coffee??????? are you serious?????
I’m asking ChatGPT to tell me what tastes good???
“computer, what do I want for breakfast?” this is dystopian actually
The thing is, I understand that large parts of the USA (I am not of there) ARE or WERE an ethnostate. Sundown towns, lynchings, etc. This reporting always reads to me as "every accusation is a confession" just ... with history?
Same goes for UK panic about London etc
Writers, we're caught up on the slush pile so we have a quick turnaround on submissions at the mo.
We tend towards the dark and upsetting. Ambiguity and discomfiting sharp edges encouraged. Our vibe was recently described as 'transgressive genre grime'. If that's you, shoot it our way.
