Oh that's a delightful little kill team, they should definitely have a scrap with my Legion of the Damned Marines when they're ready.

the only part of changing your name in the UK that will cost you any money is renewing your passport, which costs money anyway. literally just go to freedeedpoll.org and show it to any institutions that need proof of a name change (you may have to be a bit insistent about it)

2025 was an odd year. It started with no job and rapidly worsening mental health, and then became my most creatively fulfilled year in terms of books read (22) and writing done (three personal tabletop rules guides and the starts of two novels). Now it ends in a new job, and some hope for my future.

screenshot of a tumblr post from user β€œwildmansters”

The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist.

But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building.

I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

β€œTHE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

Woman refuses Cycling UK award over trans women being left out Claire Sharpe says she disagrees with Cycling UK only naming biological women in their top 100 list.

Cyclist turns down trans exclusionary honour for woman cyclists (and you can feel the BBC’s teeth grinding about it).

"If they don't want to ride with all women, then it's not the kind of ride I want to be part of".

Suddenly when puberty blockers are given to cis kids, the Daily Mail (the same newspaper which backed Hitler btw) finally admits that "their effects are not permanent, and once a child lets their blocking treatment lapse, puberty will just continue as normal."

Which is true for trans kids too.

I told him that I was born in Russia and was a writer. He showed me a list he’d written of his favourite desserts in the city. It was a sober hobby he’d started during the pandemic, going to restaurants by himself, sampling sweets. He made a lot of lists, he said, most of them food-related. I asked what other kinds he made.

β€œLists of lies liberal white women tell about Donald Trump,” he replied.

Suddenly, his leg was shaking. He grabbed the edges of the table and raised his voice: β€œWhite, liberal women are a plague on our society.”

He proceeded to drink 11 iced coffees.

A writer tried dating alt-right men as an experiment to learn about them. There is so much going on here I don't even know where to start

I expect a fucking apology from every single person who told me this "assisted dying" law they're bringing in was definitely not going to involve murdering autistic people and that the original plan was definitely not a slippery slope.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Today was day one of an online Fantasy Literature seminar put on by Oxford Bloomsbury, and it's honestly disheartening that the majority of presentations featured AI art. There's so much classic art of creatures to use, and it's a sobering reminder that arts academics aren't always like creatives.

Do not let these milquetoast white men content creators convince you that we are doomed. They are selling fear and profiting off of it. 

His health is failing. The cult has lost its momentum. The Epstein victims are actively making their case and trials will be happening, worldwide. The GOP is fighting amongst themselves about everything. Dems are winning their elections at federal and state levels. The military is being sent to cities to then stand around and get mocked. Judges have ruled it's illegal to be sent to blue cities in the first place. Alligator Alcatraz got shut down. They're desperate to hire people for ICE because people keep quitting. Protests are happening every week, everywhere.

We are in a very scary and very chaotic time. Project 2025 is terrifying. People are being emboldened to be violent, and people are being traumatized and harmed. The country has been divided and damaged, but not beyond repair and rebuild. We will get through this, we can't just give up and comply in advance. Don't let the bastards get you down.
