Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 04/10/2026In what world is AI not the kind of issue where the public have rapidly evolving real-time views? No one knows what it is and the industry keeps announcing more and more insane ways it’s going to kill us. That’s not a politically stable issue. 100

If your magic school is accesible only via a steam train that makes a single stop in London and then avoids all the major urban areas of the country en route to an isolated Scottish castle then both your world-building and politics are deeply reactionary pish. 130

Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Just googled something and the AI demon that likes to chat decided to cite a Reddit post I made five days ago and an AI bot's response to it as it's evidence. This does not fill me with confidence. 010

Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 19/08/2026It’s hard to express how much ADHD meds have changed my life.

Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 16/08/2026The problem is that the foundational experience of our entire “meritocratic elite” is bullshitting well enough to spend three years networking with other bullshitters. They see Arday as an aberration rather than simply an outsider who managed to learn to speak their language. 000
Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 15/08/2026This sounds glib, but so much of the right-wing resurgence is about ugly white men having no mechanism to address their grievances within a society that doesn’t value them. No excuse for racism obviously, but it’s probably something we need to factor into how we think about these people. 010
Cryptopher Marsland @christophermars.bsky.social · 08/08/2026ADHD medication has completely transformed my life, enabled me to complete a PhD, and kept me from spiralling into a very dark place during some very hard times, but I’m glad Channel 4 are on hand to undermine that in the interests of making a documentary pandering to uninformed ghouls. 120
