How to improve publishing: Publish fancy hardbacks and affordable paperbacks on the same day (instead of a year apart). Don't sign authors for what they represent, but what they write. Sign 20 debuts for £10k each instead of one for £200,000. Ban celebs from kid's lit. De-emphasise the Booker.

I honestly think Campbell is one of the worst people this stinky country has to offer that he is beloved of centrist dads nationwide says all you need to know about this selfish racist war-horny shithole

Incredible shit here: the man who provided the template for stomping on the BBC when it displeases malicious actors in politics, complaining that malicious actors in politics are using his template for stomping on the BBC for displeasing them.

I was working in the lab late one night

cleaning battery acid out of stylophones and other thrilling pastimes

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion
