Extraordinary that in these fractious & divided times, so many of us can unite around the single, simple fact that Matthew Goodwin is an irredeemable twat.

Hey everybody, this guy still posts on X!

See? Everyone is horrified and disappointed. They feel it speaks directly to your values.

I know it's ridiculous to have any hope in this world, but I hope Andrew squeals like a pig and dobs everyone else in it.

Starting to see this kind of thing from millennials now.

There's a slippery slope from "there's a lot of young people at this gig isn't there" to posting a load of bollocks on facebook about "remember watching Home and Away when you got home from school".

We need to add 'the dangers of nostalgia' to the school curriculum.

The game you are about to play is a product of its time. It may depict the PS3, which was commonplace in society. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today.

they should make a movie series about how it’s irresponsible to use technology to mess with the natural order of things for profit

I guess we should just have an opt out button. And then if you need a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher….

Funny you mention Zahawi - I think the message most likely to cut through to actual people is "these are literally the same people in a different hat".

Greens the most compelling alternative we've had in years

Honestly, I don't know. Not sure what a tactical vote looks like.

But I think Gwynne's done enough damage to labour here that a protest vote is likely for a lot of people, so harnessing that is your best bet

Also in Denton and sadly you're not wrong.

Can't bear to even look at the local Facebook groups.

Tonne of hope with the Greens but whoever stands will have to be properly compelling to cut through the wall of noise

when you hear about guys who had two families in the 50s and 60s, I do always just think my god, you really never did a thing around the house did you because there's no way anybody has the energy to do that

In "celebration" of thr Pepto Bismol ad now being on the radio, I took some popular radio-friendly songs and added the "Diarrhea" guy.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Critically, we also need the public to support actions that enable older people to live great lives without having to drive for when they fail the eye tests. So the public need to get onboard with no pavement parking, pedestrian priority, denser housing, fewer out-of-town shopping centres, etc etc
