Not only would I be able to get through a workday, but my workday would probably be easier.

Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

I've updated a couple of the user styles I've distributed before to be on GitHub Gists instead. This has the benefit of y'all being able to 'install' them (if using an extension like Stylus) and have them receive updates automatically.

I figure I'll do that 1 fact = 1 mundane piece of information thing. The funny thing is, I think my life is so mundane that I can't think of anything notably mundane enough to be worth mentioning, so PROVE ME WRONG.

I’m not sure why anyone would cheat at screenshots but here’s my lock screen.

On my way to Bristol Hackspace to lick all of their soldering irons.

JK Rowling is anti-rights. Just keep repeating it.

New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...

These tablets are the same medication in the same dosage. Why even make the bigger one?? Its so much harder to swallow aaaaa

Played TF2 for the first time in a while last night. At one point someone managed to kill me after, I assume, I'd been getting them a lot. Subsequently, a lil in-game back and forth happened. Person: finally got his ass Me: Not a him Person: got their ass Me: Thanks :)

To 'put down' an object: place it on a surface. To 'put down' a baby: to coax it to go to sleep. To 'put down' an adult: to insult it. To 'put down' an animal: to murder it. English is a weird language actually.

On Google shutting down AlphaFold.

It's super cool and fun that every time I make a point of trying to clean the flat, I immediately end up feeling ill. I know I'm allergic to dust, but I feel like I must be allergic to like... bleach or something too.

I don’t want to be too sensationalist about this but also I’m the least violent person in the world and I think if someone said this to my face I’d hit them

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

CW: Potential cognitohazard Currently very aware of the presence of my tongue in my mouth and it feels weird and uncomfortable

How do we still live in a world where Dominos won't let you put vegan cheese on a pizza with meat on it This is lactose intolerant intolerance, I tells ya.

Had a dream about zatzhing warfare. A bombing run yingletising people en masse to zhrow zhe enemy into disarray and a long period of adapting zheir lives and military to being smol guys.

This (incredibly eloquent) missive mirrors a lot of the issues I have with generative AI penetrating my workplace. I shouldn't wait to be killed by the truck before I take a stance against working on (or with) the truck. https://scalie.business/@chr/116993765097352472

You asked for it, we delivered - Cassette Beasts 2002's title track "Ages of Change", from our announcement trailer, is now available to stream on all major platforms! We hope you enjoy it! 🎸 Listen to the full song on Youtube now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkBt...

I was about to say that by now Cass is likely a mass murderer but that term is reserved for people who kill illegally. When it’s done legally as she has with state support apparently she’s an executioner

Caroline Litman@alicemydaughter.bsky.social · last wk.

My Trans Pride interview included a reference to Cass that UK reports left out, but interestingly the Murdoch owned NT News Australia did broadcast these words. ‘If you continue adhering to the Cass report, which has been widely discredited, you are complicit in the deaths of these young people’.

I am in Solihull

CW: AI, US politics Of course one of the first pro-AI articles I manage to find whilst researching a thing is an "America needs AI to beat the Arabs" post on a climate change denial website.

I don't know if anyone is following me for that one Nova editor extension I made back in 2021, but it just got a new update. Party. 🎉 https://extensions.panic.com/extensions/querkmachine/querkmachine.RandomizeEverything/

If I had £1 for every time a musician or YouTuber I pay attention to came out as trans this year, I'd have like... £15. It's happened a *lot*.

I should really register for the local hackspace. I like making stuff, I just don't have the space to do it at home. It's been a long time since my product design and electronics GCSE, though. 🥲

On Kier Starmer's first day in office, he moved GDS from the Cabinet Office to DSIT. On Andy Burnham's first day in office, he shut down DSIT. No word yet on where we're moving to. Potentially DCMS, given they've got the "Digital" part of their name back again. I'm tired, boss.

I zhink we may be a teensy bit burned out maybe

Today marks 14 years since our first meet as the Bristol Bronies. Feeling old yet?

I don't think we should mince words. Transphobia and hatred killed May Pollard. The Idaho legislature killed her as surely as if they'd pointed a gun at her head and pulled the trigger. Anti-trans laws were the gun. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Idaho pushed anti-trans laws for years. Then a teen died.

The life and death of May Pollard, 16, provides a window into the tragic effect that legislation and political rhetoric have had on trans people in America.
