"A billionaire has made his fortune by slowly, insidiously and irrevocably altering my relationship with myself and the people I love over the course of 20 years. Not content with doing that, he’s taken my life’s work and rendered it worthless."

Meta has stolen 5 of my novels in three languages. It has stolen 19 - 19! - Of @joncg.bsky.social’s in several languages and 4 of @notrollergirl.bsky.social’s. That’s not even the tip of the iceberg. What about you? #bookthief #AI #meta
it turns out that putney bridge waterstones unexpectedly did us a solid. at half 5 we got an enormous delivery of seed corn - in the midst of unpacking the bags, twenty or thirty crows sauntered through the front door and began eyeing things up. but when they saw the scarecrows they hopped it pronto
Thank you so much Andrew!
Reading is a rich experience which is so completely part of my life. It connects us with knowledge, with feelings, with people, with the past, and with our own thoughts. Lovely article by @notrollergirl.bsky.social. I too am a big George Eliot fan! www.telegraph.co.uk/books/author...
No matter how long and hard the winter, summer always comes.
As creatives, one of our jobs right now is to remind people of that.

I keep getting marketing emails offering me clothes ‘For total ski glamour’ or ‘your next red carpet event!!!’ and I’m so entranced by the persona they have invented for me that I don’t have the heart to delete them.
If you took out the shots of people lighting fags, The Brutalist would be a crisp 50 mins.
This has made me so happy, thank you so much! X
Just finished Pity Party by @notrollergirl.bsky.social as recommended by @laurapricewrites.bsky.social in her Substack. The perfect final read of the year: I laughed out so loud I woke my Boo up twice and the reflections on grief resonated deeply. Highly recommend it 📚
It’s the rule of all religious Western singing - if you can avoid a rhyme, make the scansion land awkwardly or add an extra ‘ha-ha-ha-ha’ in the middle of a word, it must be done.
I’m nearly 40 years old and I still CANNOT feel relaxed or normal about standing beside my parents and singing ‘round yon vir-hir-gin’.
ALWAYS
Anyone else still tempted to have a nibble on some silica gel?
I really loved this - HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUSTIN!

The three spirits:
Do it! Happy Christmas Eve!

Brilliant, beautiful, properly spooky - I loved @charlieconnelly.bsky.social’s Christmas ghost story.

so rude that we named the fruit bat after the food it likes. imagine if a zoologist came up to you and said "wow what a fascinating example of the Doritos Cool Original Human"
In fact suspect major innovations are in the dessert field. Recent purchase of Malterser ice cream profiteroles attests to this.
Squirty cream tho.
I do LOVE pierogi! Wareniki I must investigate.
Oooooh HELLO!
Arancini a very good shout! Gyoza, though - I have the same problem as I do with bao. Maybe I should pan fry it?
Have there been any truly great recent innovations in the field of beige foods and picky bits? I love bao buns, I do not love bao buns that I have to microwave myself. I tried ‘sesame duck toast’ and to that I say ABSOLUTELY NOT. Could they do more with halloumi?
