This sort of gesture, to release what many have wanted for decades and give all the proceeds to your late comrade's charity, that is friendship.

For those missing FIREFLY, might I recommend a Space Western/Noir that's quite, quite excellent?
COWBOY BEBOP.
It's the jam, the peanut butter, the sandwich entire.
Listening to Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams, an absolutely stunning record. Man, it’s so good. I bought the 25th anniversary re-recording recently and it’s ugh... just not for me at all. But the original? Oof, incredible record.

Having a wee listen to a Humble Pie record I never got around to. Imagine letting Peter Frampton sing when you have Steve Marriot in your band. I mean Frampton is pretty good, but it’s a bit like passing up a steak dinner for a ham sandwich. 🥪
Comes to us all mate!
Black Sabbath: Heaven & Hell (1980, Vertigo) The Pursuit of Happiness (1989, Chrysalis)
An album that came out when I was 10 and an album that came out when I was 20. Revisiting a couple of old loves this afternoon.
It's almost like billionaire agents of discord and hate have created a narrative that is starkly at odd with the reality of life in Britain isn't it.
Imagine being able to do this. It's just mindblowing.
Stramash colour bits , have put together a little book of black and white sketches type thing more to scratch my own itch but will print some up once I work out the best way to do it.
there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists

Quite aside from the debate over the Lords and how it is made up is the actual function of the house. It exists essentially to review and guide on proposed law, to flag up ill-considered legislation. It has emphatically done so here. The Government must listen.
The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

Nah, cap it at something ridiculous, like the UK average wage. That'd put them off even more.
Garage is a particularly egregious example of this, but he's not the only one making fortunes from other gigs while not doing his primary job as MP. Ban this, or at least cap it, as Unlock Democracy suggests. It'd make being an MP slightly less appealing to total grifters.

"you need to learn how to use gAI or you'll get left behind!"
counterpoint!
the absolute fastest way to render yourself unemployable is to build your skillset around a tool that does your thinking for you, that everyone has access to, and that one company can change or take away at any time
If you have ever lost a loved one and had to deal with the grief while also having to manage stress of family, friends, lawyers and every wild thing else this story might speak to you.
It has a bit of Watchmen’s murder mystery with a pinch of Succession’s bitter family dynamics over wealth/power
More like elite human crapital, eh folks?
Ugh. Optimism. Feels wrong. 😆
Mood wise, I'm emerging from the gloom of winter now there's a big more daylight around. I started playing (old man) football in November and it has raised my mood massively. Last two years have been haaaaard, but feel like I might be just about on the other side of it? Hope you're well!
