- And there's the fear that Farage will ride the wave of that exact same rhetoric and hatred, and gain power in the UK. And if that happens, we'll be dealing with the same nightmares as the US, but over here. I'm going to make #tea, and keep working. But, more than anything, I'm afraid for my son.
- Apologies for a long quiet, but am finding everything a bit much, at the minute. We all knew that Brexit, ad the sickening hatred of its rhetoric and culture war was orchestrated, but something about seeing it proven, wand where and by whom, has pulled the rug right out from under me. The fact...
- ...that it was all down to so few people, with a very clear agenda to undo the UK for their own ends, to pick up the task started by Truss and Kwarteng and to crush everyone and everything on the altar of their 'free city', profit-driven agenda, is pretty fucking horrific. And that's just in...
- ...the UK (and we are, at least and very slowly, making people face the music, Andrew, Mandelsson, etc, which helps). What's happened to the US, and to the fate of the world, lies beyond description. And yet, somehow, the Dems do absolutely nothing. The people fight back, and there are rays of...

View full threadI've lost my way, a bit. Add AI into this, and I'm fumbling for a light switch in the dark. I continue to write my books (have deadlines, as much as anything else) and go to work, and look after house and garden and giant child, and fuss the cat, but... yeah.
- Finding it very difficult (and kinda facile) to post about books, and tea, and gaming, and small life shenanigans, while a tiny cabal of the very worst people in existence get away with the kinds of abuse that make us gag. I understand that our little corners of light are more important than ever..
- ...but they do rather feel like fiddling while everything burns. Don't have any pithy one-liners, not this morning. I'm so tired. We're all so fucking tired.
- Oh, that's heartbreaking. Love Ogri, very much an icon of my misspent youf :)
- We’re sorry to report the passing of internationally acclaimed cartoonist Paul Sample, best known as the creator of the brilliant biker strip, “Ogri” downthetubes.net/in-memoriam-cartoon…
- Still reeling from yesterday (you know what I'm talking about). I didn't look at the pictures, I didn't want or need to know any more. The whole thing's just made me feel angry, unwell, and more furiously helpless than ever. How the FUCK are these cunts still in power?
- 'Merdas Touch'
- So, Isaac's monster #Kickstarter Christmas present finally arrived yesterday. My son is a HUGE #Transformers fan, and this is the epic collection of every comic and story, all the way back to their very, very earliest days (when the lines between Licenses were still kinda blurred):
- Comes with all kinds of amazing extras, posters, stickers, and reprints of some of the original comics
- Plus these, data cards for creators Simon Furman and Bob Buniansky. And the thing that blew my son's mind? ...

- Let's hope that Musk's financial skill, savvy and acumen will do for the AI industry exactly what they did for both Tesla and Twitter 👍
- Musk begins looting Tesla to advance his independent AI project. www.ft.com/content/78d5...
- Anyway, more words for me, and another day of watching the DPD delivery screen, biting my nails and PRAYING that the driver doesn't go astray* *The road numbering, up here, makes no sense whatsoever and we, and a lot of our neighbours, spend half our lives rescuing lost couriers and/or post... 🤞🤞🤞
- Not remotely surprised to learn that AI start-ups smell exactly like Incel central...
