So far on Unst, I've seen a viking longship, been in a castle, seen a long house and had some pretty good cake at a pricey cafe. Oh, and I've visited Bobby's bus stop. There will be pics later on.
Some people saw themselves getting in on the ground floor of AI in creative writing as an industry, made their lil LLCs and canva flyers, and are now mad that they had a bad idea and everyone thinks they're silly.
Let's talk about JK Rowling's 'bearded men'... I want to vent something that's been on my mind: The way transphobic groups and individuals are also actively homophobic. I've experienced it first hand, and know many others have too. 1/
Turned on James OBrien. First words I hear is somebody talking JK Rowling and toilets. Turned it off.

I don’t plan to post about The Odyssey again—I’d like to forget it entirely—but the part that visually struck me as the most telling was Calypso doing a 1960s Ursula Andress/James Bond nymph-alike. I felt burning secondhandembarrassment for Nolan at that point.

Damn the DSA and adjacent policies sure are sweeping a lot of the Dem primaries and now the excuse can't be "oh it's just New York/Philly/Denver it would never work in Hard Working America." I have been waiting decades for the corporate Dem to die and it's so nice to finally smell blood.

Presumably someone who can’t get through a workday without AI isn’t anti-AI. But if they can’t get through a day without it, how were they doing their jobs before?

Not to ring the Cassandra bell unnecessarily but I did make a very funny joke in Qtopia’s submission on Marcroft’s bill about how the objectives of the bill varied depending on whether you were asking the Minister for Foreign Affairs or the leader of New Zealand First
It feels weird to be proud of something I’ve written when the context is so fucked, but: I’m proud of our submission. qtopia.org.nz/news/submiss...

What if instead of starting substacks in twenty-fucking-twenty-six people learned to give one iota of a fuck about whether they want to associate themselves with nazis.
If you're still on Substack, you're helping platform fascists and their enthusiastic minions, such as Bari Weiss, whom they actively partnered with just before her move to CBS. Go check out @buttondown.com and @ghost.org instead. You can even migrate yours subscribers and subscriptions!

Anti-trans blogger guests on actual BBC Scotland podcast, getting weirder there this year. Keep begging for the licence fee I suppose
there’s a weird narrative that Sean Clerkin, Joanna Cherry, and/or Stuart ‘Wings’ Campbell noticed the embezzlement when no-one else did, but they were all talking about something entirely different
It's going to be like this in Scotland when Stuart "Wings Over Scotland" Campbell chokes on his milk and stripy straw while perusing Thai bride websites
During the 2014 Scottish Indyref campaign, Stuart Campbell was frequently referred to as an abusive ‘CyberNat’ by the bbc Campbell is now being platformed by the bbc, now that his views are seen as damaging to the SNP and independence campaign It’s called propaganda 🇬🇧 🏴🇪🇺😎
Wings over Scotland - Rev Stuart Campbell. During the intense media monitoring surrounding the 2014 Scottish Independence referendum, Stuart Campbell (Wings Over Scotland) frequently posted live commentary about BBC Radio Scotland’s flagship morning news programme, Good Morning Scotland (GMS). 1/
