Guys, we’ve been going about this all wrong. Here’s the plan: 1. We make an “innovative and disruptive AI tool” that promises to predict what TV shows audiences want. 2. We replace TV execs w AI 3. JKlolz the “AI” was us, now we have S3 of #OFMD and all shows are gay now

Love you guys (truly) I make more from ALCS payments than I do from selling my books, and I appreciate them more than I can say 🖤 (It'll be going towards the bills because I'm broke, but it has certainly cheered me up!)

When I say AI has taken every job I was ever qualified for already, and it is coming for your job too, I am not exaggerating. Those in power WANT us not to create, or talk to one another. That's a FEATURE of their plan. Isolated, joyless people who can't think for themselves are easy to control.

Everyone should read these books. Horror fantasy with a kickarse protagonist and the most beautiful Creatures I've ever encountered in fiction.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

Mainstream best-of lists are always so predictable. You just cannot quantify 'best' when it comes to art. Like, what are we going from? How popular it was? How hard it was advertised? Merchandised? How many lives it changed? I really do not care for art being 'judged and ranked'.

DVDs aren't low-tech. They're just things you can actually own, that won't disappear overnight, that don't require a monthly subscription, that won't suddenly get reedited, that won't start putting adverts in the middle and that won't sell your data to the worst people in the world.

Gig last night was (I hate to say it) solidly OK. And it's a shame because the new album is amazing and they put in a phenomenal performance, but for some reason the sound was terrible, the drums were way too high in the mix, the whole thing was soup 🥲 still, a decent night.

My most memorable one was in church primary school, the scariest teacher warning us in assembly "Did you see Dead or Alive on Top of the Pops last night - they look more dead than alive to me!" Evidently all the satanic panic, anti-goth messaging worked a treat on me 👍

Reading Murderbot has made me really think about how I should continue Spirit Houses because it's clearly the most IP of my stuff 😅 which I'm torn on because I do wanna continue it but a) too much to write, too little energy b) I hate thinking of it that way, but that's how publishing is now 🙃

I am clearly horrible because I am getting grim joy from the fact that Ayoade seems to be doing horribly on Taskmaster, the show that usually makes people's charming personalities shine through. Maybe they in fact made a grave error inviting a confirmed transphobe onto the show huh.

Waking up on a Monday to find out The Proclaimers are transphobic now. Sigh. Going to bat for Linehan is a hell of a choice to promote their new album, but I guess staying 'relevant' is hard, and Richard Ayoade is still getting work, so 🤷‍♂️ 😑

Just watched Zardoz and absolutely hated it. Edgelord art student nonsense that isn't even funny (I was led to believe it was at least funny). The director/artist/producer clearly just wanted an excuse to put loads of boobs in a film. Just make a porno, you weirdo.

"We do not send rejection emails for anthology submissions. It is simply too time-consuming." "We don't accept fiction written in second-person (you) since we don't publish choose-your-own-adventure books." I love it when a publisher's attitude saves me wasting my time submitting to them 😑
