I am really enjoying MAKING SKELETONS DANCE by Peter Macsovszky. There's a vein of sardonic satire here that reminds me of Thomas Bernhard.

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere. The ceremony of innocence is drowned ... W.B. Yeats, 20th century

"No one has ever been charged or prosecuted for the killing of Patrice Lumumba, but a lot of people have been considered responsible for it." Excellent write up by Professor Foluke Adebisi. Pair it with Césaire's *A Season in the Congo* (1966).

Every writer I know, every artist I follow, is in the fucking trenches trying to survive this shit. GenAI is not the future because if it keeps going there is no future, and even if it was that would be no excuse.

Today's the feast of St Anthony of Egypt, 4th Century Desert Father. He's often shown with a small pig which kept him company in the desert, as here in a 15th Century English alabaster in the Burrell Collection, Glasgow. Small pigs are still sometimes referred to as Tantony Pigs.

Saw a lot of headlines saying "wikipedia is embracing ai" being tossed around tabloids, and I'm pretty sure they were maliciously written to make you feel a certain way about Wikipedia. What's actually happening is that wikipedia is demanding payment for data scraping and the corpos don't like that.

This is at least one perspective from Iranian people rather than from Western pundits with agendas that might be very unconnected to what Iranians prioritise. There will no doubt be other Iranian perspectives, but take a look at this one.
