pathetic, anti-humanity, and anti-science. what a legacy. History will look on you as one of those who insisted on phrenology.
Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 3w agoJK Rowling through her TERF organization, Beira's Place have sent Amnesty International a demand letter seeking a full retraction of their report, a public apology, and a bar to future criticism of gender critical groups as anti rights orgs. If they don't comply, they'll commence legal action.

hookland.bsky.social@hookland.bsky.social · 4w agoAs promised to link to my first actual Hookland book. It is only small, but covers a lot of the ghost soil. If enough of you buy it and like it there will be a Volume Two. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1068598123 It will also be available in an actual bookshop soon.
I've got to say, the only good thing Sam Altman has done is get me back into art out of pure spite. While I do have a spotify subscription I have also bought more records, never use AI, read actual books, fuck the idea we cannot own ourselves
Lesley Carhart@hacks4pancakes.com · 4w agoIt's fascinating to live in a time where the majority of global consumers are just fed up and hate everything new on the market. Hate removal of physical media Hate forced AI Hate video surveillance in cars and homes Hate micro transactions Hate digital subscriptions What a time to be alive!
@leopardsbane.bsky.social has poem'd Can I believe anyone stands condemned before the maker of such a world, before the Father of such a Son? Crowned with a thousand pink and cornflower dawns, and all the roses in Jerusalem? This God who fell Himself into our sorrows, who fell Himself into bread.
Follow me and the first thing I see is that you trade in hours of AI video and ambience and it's a block. Not to my door. Generative AI is a planet-killing theft engine hollow of lived experience. The bubble will burst, but that's not why we oppose it, we refuse AI because it's morally bankrupt.
I also have a piece in t'ART press' spring edition, which is available to read for free here:

Got a nasty little story in this issue, grab yourself a copy
Seize The Press Magazine@seizethepress.bsky.social · last mo.STP Issue #14 is out! With stories about eating children; guys turning into telephones; malignant grimoires; 'The Connoisseur'; and resurrecting the 9/11 hijackers in order to publicly execute them.
I know it's old hat now, but AI being injected into everything even when actively not wanted makes me want to break things
This is just going to be a general bitch about getting an autism diagnosis as an adult. About two and a half years ago my GP put me on this path at her recommendation. At this point I was fairly certain (not diagnosed or undiagnosed, but peer reviewed)
mates, my second autism assesor told my my special interest is classified as 'collecting knowledge' and diagnosed me with stage one aptos 2 level 11 isn't that just being....curious? how is 'liking learning' a special interest? I am tired, boss.

I actually think this is why the tech bro fascists love and worship AI so much; they cannot comprehend the joy of doing and making, they want to optimise their lives so everything is streamlined and in this goal they reveal themselves for what they are: really fucking stupid
Drew McWeeny@drewmcweeny.com · 5mo agoOne thing that seems universally true of all fascists and the extreme right wing: they do not understand the point of art or the intent of any single piece of art. They are all fucking morons who are completely culturally illiterate. Sinead O'Connor would gouge their fucking eyes out for this.
Fuck's SAKE
Laura McAtackney@lauramca.bsky.social · 5mo agoA damning report on the continued retention of human remains, especially from colonial contexts (nb Ireland virtually never included in these lists), in British museums. Rather amazed to see the 6th largest collection is in ‘Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon’?!? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
We're coming up to the end of the financial year, and although Banbury museum has not yet had to shutter its doors, it is still in dire need of funding after getting its budget removed www.banburymuseum.org/support-us/m...
