I just finished reading Jennifer Saint's Ariadne, based on ancient Greek myths, and it struck me how much the Greeks' attempts to placate the gods resemble our endless quest to make the algorithm happy. So I made this little piece and put it on IG - let's see how the robots like it

I moved here two years ago today. Previously, I'd spent nine long, horrible years in a tiny miserable flat (all I could manage at the time, because I had the better part of £50,000 in debt to pay off).

So now I have a proper little house, and moving here also meant I had my own garden for the very first time.

Here's some before and now pictures - apologies for the big metal pole in the middle, but that was in the picture two years ago so felt I had to stand in the same place.

Still a lot can be done, obviously, but I feel like I've made some progress.

If you're a writer and your books haven't been banned in Florida, do better.

I would like to thank Elon Musk for posting a hateful antisemitic tweet and then defending it like a bratty five year-old, thereby reminding me that my quitting Twitter a few weeks ago was an absolute moral necessity. If I hadn’t done it then I’d have to do it now.

My jaw is on the floor. This just made Joy Reid's broadcast. DEEP red #Colorado Springs (home of the Focus on the Family extreme reich group) just turned their backs on the Rep candidate and elected a black independent man, Yemi Mobolades , for Mayor. Congrats! #ColoradoSprings #COpol #VoteThemOUT! https://gazette.com/election-coverage/yemi-mobolades-victory-marks-seismic-shift-in-colorado-springs-analysis/article_d0afa790-f44a-11ed-a4f2-0bb80c573ff1.html

So, some of you are observing that my posts are really dumb.

Yes, but they pale in comparison to some of my life choices.

Ron De Fascist wants to be Adolf so bad. The sad thing is, some people are waiting until he DOES the heinous things Adolf did before they wake up and say—“DAMN—this guy is Adolf!”

Please don’t wait til then—NOW is the time to raise your voice. VOTE.

NEVER AGAIN! means something

Saddened hugely by the news of Russ Nicholson's death. He was one of the artists who shaped the look of UK fantasy in the 80s and 90s, with a style that's instantly recognisable and unique. He did amazing work for Hogshead's Warhammer FRP line and was a delight to deal with.
