today on webworm, @dylanreeve.com and i look at how barely solvent new zealand-born shoe company allbirds (previously spouting off about environmental sustainability) has announced a pivot to AI: www.webworm.co/nobirds/

"People always used to ask me why we named our company Allbirds - well many years ago a VC asked me - " what do you most want to see completely eradicated from the earth?". We're excited to announce that now, with the help of AI, we finally have the chance to decisively answer that question".

allbirds social media accounts in NZ, australia and the US just flogging shoes pretending they are not an AI company is very funny (and shit): www.webworm.co/nobirds/

deeply glad to no longer publish on substack, it promotes the worst shit

Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

this webworm from @haydendonnell.bsky.social was originally published on february 17, 2025 – but with donald trump recently sharing an AI rendering of himself as *checks notes* jesus christ, it seems appropriate to re-publish it today: www.webworm.co/trumpistheantichrist/

tiktok is brutal

If you haven't read David's ongoing series about the enigma that is Anna Wilding, then you should absolutely set aside some time and start at part 1... www.webworm.co/the-wild-sto...

1/10: here is the whole anna wilding series - which started back in 2020: Part 1: The Beginning - www.webworm.co/the-wild-sto...
