I am making two promises to my daughters: - I will never make them feel under any obligation to have children of their own. - if they do have children of their own, I will not buy them any fucking craft kits.

If you google “fat bear”, Google gives you an animated fat bear and a little salmon button so you can feed them salmon

I think we underrate that JCO came up in 20th century New York literary circles where everyone said five most devastating insults before breakfast and as one of the last one standing, her competition is guys who get sad if their chatbot isn't sufficiently nice to them.

I have been Going Through It a bit emotionally this week and few things really help like music, hearing someone else speak something that (often indirectly and obliquely) hits at what you need. And it's the knowing that there were other humans that felt that and expressed it that makes it work.

THis comes to the heart of why AI art in general exhausts me. I experience art to experience what someone thought and felt, to see someone demonstrating a skill, to have a feeling transmitted from someone else to me. AI people just want something that plays to their mood.

The fundamental structural problem with the British economy is that, for decades now, "working for a living" is a mug's game compared to living off asset inflation and rents, and even as the wheels come off that system nobody has any inclination to change it.

Calling a COBRA meeting after they've bailed the guys seems a bit like overkill. Burnham sat in the captain's chair all like "so I called my first COBRA meeting for a bunch of doggers in a transit? I'm gonna look like *such* an arsehole."

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes

Plus, he is actually standing for election to the national parliament, not the local council. Which is not to say that representing his constituents isn't significant but his foreign policy views are relevant to whether they pick him or not.

Anyway, I really liked my review of it - which Letterboxd has deleted - so here it is.

Of course it’s incredible, and packs more menace in one and a half minutes than some horror films manage in a full length film.

It does, however, also make me ponder the randomness of what gets to survive and live on in the memory, and what doesn’t. I’m sure this did indeed scare a whole generation of children; but this isn’t my childhood. My childhood was instead scarred by the terrors of Knightmare. And yet Lonely Water managed to get lovely DVD and even Blu-ray releases. With Knightmare, we have to get by with scruffy off-airs. It has never had any kind of commercial release.

We can watch Lonely Water better now than anybody did at the time; Knightmare is forever poorer quality than I experienced as a kid. And yet it was one of the very best television shows ever made.

What gets to live on properly is not a meritocracy. It’s a complex mix of contractual arrangements, the right people being in charge and interested in releasing something at the right time, and dumb luck. Which is always worth remembering once in a while. The history we watch is a kaleidoscope, not a complete bookshelf, no matter how much we would like it to be otherwise.

Breaking Bad? Really? Really really? I mean, I enjoyed it but it's ultimately a silly confection of a show. The premise is absurd, the story relies heavily on coincidence and people acting in unlikely ways, but the interplay between the main characters is compelling enough that none of that matters
