Here’s the latest stop motion animation from my Tiny Angry Witch team. (I’m the writer, I can’t take credit for the animating!) It’s one of our longest, and it nearly drove us all mad, but we’re really proud of getting it made! 1 x Tiny Angry Witch 1 x broom No AI
I mean, the simple answer is yes. I already get through my day without AI tools, working efficiently and to a high level. I don't need to give it up because I don't use it. It's easy to live without AI.
Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak
Just a few more days until the train pull. Total weight of the train & carriage is 14 tons, and I have to pull it 20 metres in under 60 seconds. I get 2 attempts, and there are 23 other competitors. If I can do it in under 30 seconds, I'll be happy. Nailing it in close to 20 seconds would be great.
The portal opens tomorrow… are you ready? We want horror stories up to 6,000 words, including flash. Originals and reprints. We pay $0.08 per word. Simultaneous submissions are accepted so long as you keep us informed. More details on our website (below).
Found a photo of myself from 2012, on my way to a job interview. So I would have been 28 here, believe it or not. I looked so tiny!
Found a photo of me at London Trans+ Pride 2026. This one is by a photographer called Sujoy.
Just loving how John Cleese, now reduced to one of his own caricatures, rages about immigrants coming to the UK and failing to accept "our" culture, from his home in ... (checks notes) ... Nevis in the Caribbean.
One thing you can absolutely guarantee in life. When Labour ministers talk about difficult choices, it's never the rich and powerful that will be taking a hit.
* Clicks 'Trans Rights' on trending. * Gets a bunch of posts about the US economy, and a poll showing 2/3 Londoners would vote to rejoin the EU. * Sighs in screw-vibe-coding.
When Tommy Ten names had his Elon Musk funded hate rally in London there was 23 arrests were made including 1 counter protester. When 150,000 trans people and allies marched in London there were zero reported arrests. So tell me who’s the dangerous group? Picture by @whatthetrans.com
Reminder, the British media is 1000% responsible for excessively platforming Nigel Farage & stoking the fires of hate on queers (especially trans), immigrants, etc, all for the sake of engagement.
150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.
Now that it's the day after London Trans+ Pride, and I've had time to rest, I wanted to reiterate something. I'm kinda privileged when it comes to the trans experience. It was only this year that I realised being nonbinary put me under the umbrella. Being nonbinary is primarily an 1/4
On my way to London Trans+ Pride. Blimey, this is gonna be a hot march.
Just had a reminder of the time I received an early pension release letter 16 years before I could. So, here is the letter and the response I sent back in the pre-paid envelope.
And here we go. Final two strongman competitions of the year for me (because three is enough for my first full year competing). 14 ton steam train and carriage pull Then a full comp incl. timber carries, 240kg yoke, 22 ton train pull, and a chain drag (like a chain you'd attach to an anchor).
I haven't checked everyone who signed the letter, but I feel like this likely a case of millionaires who came from humble beginnings and never forgot that. Frankly, anyone against the idea of a wealth tax - especially when there are wealthy people saying 'do it, it's fair' - is on the wrong side.
In an open letter, 120 well-off Britons told Burnham: "We can afford it. We're not talking about higher taxes on those who get up and go to work for their income every day, but on the very richest whose income is derived from the wealth they hold." 👏👏👏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Freakin'sweaty hands slipping in the bar, making me lose concentration on the bar path XD Still, that's bench press done for the week. Ended up doing 2 x 5 and 2 x 3 at 80kg.
I feel like people have forgotten that ad blockers weren't popular because people just wanted to get something for free, it's because we can't trust ads not to fuck up our computers. If we still just had quiet simple banner ads or sideboard ads, ad blockers wouldn't have gotten as much traction.
Busy times ahead. This weekend: I'll be marching at London Trans+ Pride. August: I'm competing in a Train Pull competition, plus hopefully attending a LondonFurs. September: I'm competing at Kent's Strongest Man. I'm gonna be physically broken by October XD
