Judging by the reaction to the stuff the same company has been allowing on social media, I'm going to take a wild guess and say someone is going to suggest banning children from public areas in case someone is using pervert glasses instead of, you know, banning the glasses

Meta’s smartglasses mean any child can be covertly filmed. In the age of AI, how do we tackle that risk?

Furious that Chris Nolan would disregard historical accuracy in adapting The Odyssey by making a "movie" with "cameras" instead of memorizing the entire story and then going on a nationwide tour to sing it to us while tripping on ergotized barley

What’s a woman? We asked The Odyssey and you’ll never believe the answer…s! 1. Bird with a lady head 2. Shapeshifting witch 3. Baddie who came out of a bird egg 4. A whirlpool maybe 5. Tentacle monster who barks like a dog 6. More different shapeshifting witch 7. Weird horny island hermit

It cracks me up how mad people are about Eliot Page existing in a story that pretty famously contains Tiresias the Transition Enthusiast, an mpreg headburster, and a chick who hatched out of a swan’s egg. Yes hi I am Homer my gender is “lol” (Yes I said chick she’s a swan & so’s her sister. HONK.)

Thank you to all who have ordered this. We decided not to do crowdfunding due to the Unbound disaster, so there is no "target" but every sale helps towards printing, typesetting and editing costs... It's a different way of publishing a book, and an experiment, but I think it's going to look fab.

Warum schaffen wir das in Deutschland nicht? #E-Autos aus China, die bereits mit subventionierten Dumpingpreisen angeboten werden, bekommen bei uns noch zusätzlich ne staatliche Förderung ... und wir wundern uns, dass VW vor die Hunde geht.

Verlässlichkeit des Staates. Dienstagvormittag wird eine Vorlage bekannt, in der die Regierung Einschnitte bei der Wärmepumpenförderung plant. Mittwoch entscheidet der Haushaltsausschuss. Kurz darauf sind bereits keine Anträge nach dem alten System mehr möglich. Verlässlichkeit des Staates.

We are so utterly thrilled to be able to announce this news! Having Tom on board with this brilliant new collection is like having a visitation from the very best kind of book pixies. Apologies if our site and shop has slowed down a bit from all the traffic! #booksky

Ach komm, ich hol mir jetzt auch als Freiberufler immer eine Krankschreibung ab Tag 1. Die Praxen haben doch nix zu tun, und so viel Ehrlichkeit und Transparenz schulde ich meinem Kanzler.

Dieses Social-Media-Verbot für Jugendliche erinnert mich an eine Chemiefabrik, der nicht verboten wird, ihre Abwasser in den See zu leiten, sondern stattdessen den Jugendlichen verboten wird, im See zu schwimmen.
