I never understand why “history” or “science” accounts use AI images of things well documented by *actual photographs*.

Just wanted to share what a trawl around Facebook for torc AI slop revealed... Brace yourselves - it's *so* very bad! 🤮 1/3 #Archaeology 🏺 #AI #Torcs #Gold

“Torks, named after the Monkees drummer who first discovered them” [the next AI trawl will enter this into the slop feedback loop to become canon 😬]

... and as for these? Um. Yeah, I don't think i have the words. ...but apparently neither did they!! 🤣 3/3

Honestly, the torc is the usual travesty, but the Broighter boat is truly amazing!

The Broighter Collar has had a doing too. In the words of Don Corleone, look how they massacred my boy

I watched Yaxley-Lennon's rebuttal doc before I watched C4 one - it initially got me slightly worried Shea had not covered all bases. But when I watched #Dispatches it soon became pretty obvious that every 'i' was dotted, every 't' crossed. Brilliant work by Matt Shea & @hopenothate.org.uk

So much this. Don't create with it, don't use it, don't share it. Ever.

I’ve reached the point - well actually, I reached it a while ago - where I’m militantly anti-AI. Fine - use it in bioscience labs and radiology where it might help analyse data more effectively. Use it sparingly for systems engineering. Everywhere else, it can fuck off.

My mum wanted the details of her death heard. She strongly believed in the right to die & had a living will. We need to be honest about what death often looks like & that there is often *no* palliative care that can make someone like my mum's death any easier. TW: This thread is a difficult read.

My article in today's Guardian on why I am sending the assisted dying bill back to the Lords and why the will of the elected chamber – and a popular, compassionate piece of legislation – must not be frustrated again by a small minority of peers: buff.ly/RTe24vy

Fabulous to see Far Right Watch up and running again. Good work folks! 👏

Oh, dear, Mr Ferguson. Oh, dear. ID'd through your Instagram, cross-checked against your self-published photos of you at your place of employment, and a phone call. Your head office is talking to your boss, right now. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Oooooo.... main course with C4 at 10pm, pudding with HnH at 11pm. Delicious! 🍿

Tomorrow night, Channel 4 Dispatches airs the findings of a year-long investigation into Tommy Robinson’s finances. Watch it. Then come back here. We’ve got more to show you.

This is worth a read - a recent Europol report on #museum thefts. More violent, less organised and all about the cash... 😔 #Archaeology #Treasure 🏺 www.europol.europa.eu/cms/sites/de...

Stop The Blokes

With fascism on the streets of England again, The Times uses its front-page to deliver the same message beneath a thin veneer of respectability.

Much of this comes down to the ruddy patriarchy... again... They're dressed in black & ballys cos they think it makes them look 'ard. A lot of them are 50% steroids. They scream about protecting 'are wimin' when a lot of them have DV convictions. They're little men whose only power is this.

Scary things to see through a porthole no: 765

Danny T has taken his goons to Portsmouth tonight where, wait for it... He's puked up everywhere (yes, really!) before he and a handful of his mates have jumped in the sea ('they can't arrest us in the sea!'). The police have brought them blankets. Danny T is apparently still puking up... 1/2

Just catching up. I'm sorry, but there's no f*cking way that what happened in #Dover was 'spontaneous'. We also know *exactly* who they are - they said so in the live feeds from the various 'citizen journalists' covering it. 1/4

🚨 BREAKING: Patriot Platform, a new far right group launched by Tommy Robinson’s right hand man Daniel Thomas (AKA Danny Tommo) has blockaded the port and several roads in Dover. The masked men are from subgroups of PP, including Sussex, Essex, and South East Patriots Here’s all you need to know.

This (and the blog before it) are important reads. The mapping of the current far right network, including Patriot Platform, which had their first outing at #Dover today. postmoderniconoclast.substack.com/p/mapping-br...

Time to proscribe Patriot Platform. #Dover

Oh this is truly hilarious. Watching the live feed, they've realised the police are coming in from behind them to block them off... Kettle time lads. Let 'em broil gently in the sun with their bally's and black clothes! 🤣🤣🤣 #Dover

It's a bit hot today. These numpties have more layers on than a pass-the-parcel. Shall we start taking bets on how fast they start keeling over? #Dover

100 'patriot' men, dressed all in black paramilitary with balaclavas have blocked Dover, intimidating drivers, standing in front of cars with kids in, etc. Supposedly they are Daniel Thomas's (Danny Tommo's) new black shirt army. Nick the f*cking lot of them. Urrghhh.....

Morning!! Dukes and Orr have stood down.

... and the other thing. Oysters and white wine!!! 🤣 Hardly the 'pint drinking, man of the people' image really, is it? (P.S. I have it on good authority he actually hates beer)

James Orr. Professor of divinity at Cambridge. Mate of JD Vance. Invited Jordan Peterson to Cambridge. Funneller of donations from Peter Thiel. #Reform 's Head of Policy. Now in it up to his neck. ... and then there was Jason Arday. #Cambridge has some pretty big questions to answer.

FINALLY! BBC have the Farage story top billing on the 10 o'clock news...

The other aspect to the #Channel4 #Farage /Reform sting is that Reform, with their dodgy polls, made fools out of The Times and The Torygraph... They ain't gonna like that...

Stop whatever you’re doing & watch this now! Reform’s magic money tree has been bust wide open. Huge kudos to undercover reporters Verbatim via @channel4news.bsky.social youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI?... huge

Well I think that's Farage and Orr done for... If only Jason Arday was still here to see it. Time for Cambridge to get rid of the really dodgy Professor. youtu.be/aXut3s90rUI?...
