That makes it sound like a five star review.

Just found this - excellent article.

There may be another 'smoking gun' - if it can be established that 'Roy Bogarde' or 'Ray Bogart', was the chap also known as Victor Norris, who ran several groups including the Orthodox Temple of the Prince, which probably *was* some sort of actual honey trap.

What’s orange and sounds like a parrot?

A carrot.

What’s green and sounds like a bee?

A pea.

What’s brown and hairy and sounds like a goose?

A moose.

Keep it going.

Tawny vs Serendib Scops.

DaddyBaphy?!

WTF?!

Thanks - will do.

Insurance is probably running it's own AI to evaluate risk, that's saying 'fuck no, I wouldn't let me drive!'.

...print with the changes, which made it unusable, undetected. Yes, sure, that should have been picked up, and blame does lay with the person that was supposed to have been proofing it, but there was nothing to indicate anything had happened beyond the spellcheck. That added time, cost and hassle.

Similarly, one of the most common complaints amongst people I work with in marketing & PR is 'how do I turn off all the AI shit?'. Someone I know put together a basic recipe book and ran it through a spell-check, that had some sort of AI bollocks enabled, and it changed the recipes. It went to...

When I worked at a disability charity that taught people to drive in adapted vehicles there was a lot of interest in how they'd give more freedom and solve a lot of issues. We were told the main issues were regulatory. No one could decide where fault for accidents would be, so they were uninsurable.

I get accused of doing that when I’m not, but if it’s in the workplace I can completely disassociate from it now, which maybe just comes from age.

I have a mantra for this. It goes to the tune of Fear is the Mindkiller from Dune:

Anyone can choose whoever they want for any reason or none.

There could be a million things I’m not aware of for their choices and it’s probably not personal.

If it is personal, they don’t deserve me anyway.

Oh, and if you’re going to do anything major and need a seriously deep dive, I’ve got a lot of material from both of them and could point you at some stuff that’s not widely known about.

Thought so. A beautiful but doomed love story.

But even now, careful how you say his name, or like a bad fairy, he may come.

Which beef?

Wait. Can I get off work by being a bit gayer?

I’d be very happy to be corrected, but I don’t think there’s any such thing as a pack being trained for one type of scent only, or a hunt running itself for one type of hunt only.

I think the ‘good hunt’ is a bit of a myth.

They don’t support any FTE on their own, locals’ views are mixed to hostile, which js reciprocated by the hunt and supporters, and the supporters are literally bussed in and are the same people at multiple events (cf the Member from Innsmouth).

@markopilkington.bsky.social @philh.bsky.social - would you chaps by any change know if Kevin McClure, of End Times Bulletin, and the FT Book of the Millennium, is still around, or on social media anywhere? Searching is complicated by some a couple of other similarly named people. Cheers.

Wait. No. Maybe not. Sm not st. My bad.

The tv series with Ben Daniels is excellent.

@gavinbaddeley.bsky.social - Apologies for the public tag, but can't find any other way to get in touch. I'm researching British satanic groups in the 80s and have found some interesting primary sources that raise a few questions you may be able to help with, so could you please drop me a DM?Cheers.

Much better than the tea lights and crystals that are usually left there, which I've cleared out in the past.

Just watched Luc Besson’s
new Dracula film.

It’s… brilliant.

Except…

I’m not sure the reasons it’s good are intentional.

It’s super, extra camp.

I can’t tell if it’s meant to be a parody, but it’s hilarious and its main inspiration seems to be the video for Army of Lovers’ Cruficied.

Just to refute another potential myth - P&T never actually did a whole episode or in-depth look at climate change.

They mentioned it as part of other topics, but never focussed on it.

What they did take on was 'green-washing' about how companies misrepresented ecological benefits of products.

Yeah, again that's where I can respect but disagree with them. The main point of difference being that they seem to have a problem with international or government led attempts to fight it, as that would be too much socialism for them. That stance may have changed since too though and I missed it.

Penn and Teller are a great example of people that I can disagree with about a few things, but still like and respect.

They are, of course, right about vaccines here, but I disagree with them about stuff like gun control and smoking. Although, I think they maybe changed their minds about smoking.

Bond would totally fuck a guy in order to get info, or access, in the same way he usually fucks the good girl & bad girl in each film, according to the formula. Difference is he'd bottom for a guy.

Also, he's completely impotent unless he's killed someone in the past 48 hours or so.

I find it hard to consider him an asset to anyone, but yeah…
