While I'm not quite at the point of losing my house, the harm ai has done to my animation work income is huge, like 80% gone and it makes me wonder how many freelance artists and animators ARE losing everything while billionaire con men continue to rake it in.

I have been telling everyone that there no trick ot treating when I was young. In my 1981 diary I mention them turning up and confusing my Dad. I was wrong!

What's it like in your head?

Someone in my train carriage is a member of the Olympic snoring team.

Still incredible.

I witnessed a crime against food earlier, my Mum's friend had a cheese scone with blackcurrant jam and clotted cream.
