Here are the promised Pardalotes! It was a grey, wet day with very little light so most of my photos didn't work, but it was a thrill just to have seen these tiny beauties at all.

⚠️ IMPORTANT ⚠️ A massive data centre, BIGGER than the village they want to build it next to, has been proposed in Fife. If you're in the area PLEASE file an objection to it, the damage it will do is unbearable to think about.

Real good bit about the slippery slope of genAI use. A battle we're already fighting, especially against the C-suite.

Please watch and support the release of Mexico's first stop motion film so that you can both prove that your love for animation as an art form is true and stick it to the industry's equivalent of Benedict Arnold.

A lot of British people will tell you that we're having a bad time because our houses are built for cold weather, but actually the problem is that billionaires and industrialists suck donkey balls and our politicians are cowardly self-interested cunts. Similar, but subtly different.

I don't post enough in support of trans rights, and the way the UK government is trying to quietly erase their ability to exist in public view is horrifying and wouldn't look much out of place in a theocratic dictatorship (some of which now rate better than the UK for trans rights)

itch.io
and DTRPG (hotel internet willing!) 2. It's also my 6 y/o son's zine-making debut. He's made his own zine to give away on my stand, and he would be *delighted* if anyone stopped by and asked for one at 3A-412 ❤️

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

I mean, robot/AI stories are almost all stories about slaves, and "robot uprising" stories are about slave rebellions. Do we honestly think slaves rebel just because there are stories about slave rebellions? Or is there perhaps some OTHER reason for such uprisings?

This is gonna sound mean, but I think we have enough science fiction where characters process their trauma in healthy and hinged ways under the supervision of competent professionals. We need to get back to Cordelia Naismith trying to drown her psychiatrist in a fishtank.

Note to myself and anyone else who cares: Plans for UKGE Friday/Saturday: 10:30am - 12:30pm: demoing Seize the Power at the academic stand. Come over to learn about (play?) a game that isn't fun. 1pm - 4:30pm: demoing Guess the Growl at the Clarendon Games stand (3-610) Sunday is still TBC.

Banned Book Club was about history repeating itself, so we had to include the story of how banned book clubs in America now meet in secret to read it, just like Hyun Sook and her friends did... and she still gets invited to join! It's called Banned Book Club: Afterward.
