Walking back from big Tesco’s.

i have heard tell of a company telling studios to implement some form of AI in their process (doesn't matter what) so that they can tell their bosses AI is being used to make a show

No one will ever sum up Bari Weiss's career more succinctly than "what's the point of standards"

My last word on the matter

Just noticed on an old VHS that Robert Patrick was wearing a NIN shirt when he was 3D scanned for the T-1000. That would have been 1990, so he was proudly supporting his brother Richard Patrick, who was in a new band called Nine Inch Nails at the time.

Did you know that the creators of the hilarious satirical documentary series American Vandal made another show, called Players? Did you know it takes on the world of esports and is just as funny and incisive? Did you know you can watch it all for free, right now? youtube.com/playlist?lis...

He was trying to break into my phone!

OHO. BIRD ART, YOU SAY?? i don't even know where to begin #art #🪶

It's 1348 and you're getting rat faces in your notifications. Chat is this good

iirc 1 trans woman has qualified for the Olympics in over 20 years and she came last

today I learned fully about labouls, ectoparasitic fungi which are only found growing on live insects, but do not kill the host. they're just a kind of annoying small thingie that lives in the world and propagates

Transphobia is a pipeline to the far right. An example: Suzanne Moore used to be a left wing columnist at the Guardian. Then came the anti-trans panic. Despite the Guardian also promoting it, it wasn’t enough & she left. Moore is now complaining about wokeness over the Irish famine & colonialism.

Took the cats out for a walk with my brother and accidentally created a 90s Britpop album cover

lol she got his ass and he knows it

the harris campaign said the “they/them” ad didn’t sway the election. one of the trump campaign’s top strategists this week said trans rights isn’t in the top five issues for swing voters. when will the press stop talking about us like we’re a liability and start looking itself in the mirror

This is how transphobia's right wing fuckery blew open basic respect in the UK, there is absolutely no reason to expect now that being "women critical" is not also a protected belief, if you truly do not believe that women should just be reproductive slaves for cis men. This will be used to abuse.

Surely this has been done already

"Don't look at me, I'm irrelevant." 'The Young Ones' made their BBC2 debut on this day in 1982.

This really isn't difficult to understand. Entry-level jobs in the UK are being decimated by AI. This makes university even less attractive, as the idea of tens of thousands of pounds of debt which you will never clear becomes even less attractive. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

And now, an important announcement from Captain Jean Luc Picard.

The company that's pushing this technology should not only be regulated, it should be shut down, & everyone who worked to develop & promote this program should be held accountable in a court of law. Sam Altman belongs under the jail.

You rang? #caturday

Was playing Hades on hard mode last night. That's when you're on the final boss and the cat is going zoomies all over the desk. #Caturday

Even putting aside all moral and ethical issues over GenAI, it's still just a bad tool. There is no control over it. Just prompts and hope. On a professional level you need to be able to control as much as possible for professional results. With AI you can only fix it's serious problems.

More watercolor and ink art for those of us having trouble letting go of Halloween as the stores fill with Christmas. #art

🏊‍♀️The women who swim at Kenwood Ladies Pond have already made their decision. In 2024, almost 900 members voted to keep their trans-inclusive policy - a policy that has worked peacefully since 2019. Now, a small campaign group is seeking to overturn that democratic decision through the courts. 1/5

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

Wow and you're saying this comes from two prominent TERFs? My my my that is quite the surprise I must say. It's almost like transphobia is steeped in misogyny

Great news if your kink is someone complaining about how dumb their boss is and getting links on how to retrain out of the tech industry.

November otter just dropped

I know how they got to that point. Because we’re a few steps behind, living through the “getting to that point” right now in the UK.

Lovely cat making wonderful sounding trills. 😻🥰 #cat #trills #adorable

I've said it so many times but it's always worth repeating; We will continually struggle for things to improve as long as we have this news media

some more pics from my little pumpkin shoot the other day that i can't be bothered to edit

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

I wouldn't mind fireworks on Bonfire Night so much if it was just that, a night. But it's not. It's a week of fireworks.

OpenAI pirated large numbers of books and used them to train models. OpenAI then deleted the dataset with the pirated books, and employees sent each other messages about doing so. A lawsuit could now force the company to pay $150,000 per book, adding up to billions in damages.

"Well well well it says here that you are the Head of Generative-AI. Just want to check what you actually do here at the company. Oh you make adverts for us? How many? Just the two in two years you say? Both badly received you say? And how much are we paying you?"
