If you establish and entrench a consensus that (a) hostility to migrants is a cri du coeur from the authentic working class, and (b) anti racism is the preserve of out of touch metropolitan liberals, where do you suppose the country will end up? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Echt letterlijk alles en iedereen dat AI afbeeldingen gebruikt voor marketing of hun boodschap geeft mij het gevoel dat zij hun eigen boodschap niet belangrijk vinden en verliest echt in één klap ontiegelijk veel respect. Het is echt schrijnend. Het is lelijk en zielloos.

This is almost certainly true, and the UK fails women refugees in multiple ways, including by refusing safe routes to come here, wrongly rejecting asylum claims, barring family reunion & not recognising trafficking victims promptly or at all. If only Mahmood had the power to do something about this

Basically using LLMs and agentic ai is a massive security risk and no one should do so basically ever and these companies should be prosecuted for hacking. Also two-party consent should extend to all electronic communications.

The rush to speculate that asylum seekers are responsible for every crime in the news is a sort of opportunistic informational terrorism. Until it’s disproved it stokes fear and hatred. When it is disproved there are no adverse consequences and they know that they only have to be lucky once.

Pen, watercolor, black & white charcoal pencil.

Another featured piece from the Spooky Pants book.

A man in a sweater stands with his hands on his hips looking out of a large window with the curtains open. Things aren’t looking good outside, reader. A massive winged demon is emerging from the clouds as dozens of little ghosts and bone demons rip through the sky. On the ground below we see townsfolk running through the grass. Our man in the window is in no mood for this. He lets us know, “Oh, I am in no mood for this.” His dog looks out the window as well, wagging its tail. 

Fantasia (1940) inspired drawing. I think I could’ve gone a little heavier with the chaos outside but we’ll try again with fresh drawings this October. I like how the clouds turned out. Trying to balance my sloppy lines with more detail can be tricky but I think we achieved a good result.

My subject is an offshoot of analytic philosophy so I find most humanities writing quite irritating, but I've grudgingly come to accept the point that sometimes you *can* get a complicated point across surprisingly well with a metaphor or a bit of wordplay, because human brains are weird like that

Ik mocht de kersverse brugklasser helpen met boeken kaften en kon het natuurlijk niet laten ze even open te slaan. Spijt van.
Een pagina uit een geschiedenisboek. Tekst: "Source 6 Men and women. Once, a long time ago, men and women lived together in harmony. The man hunted and defended his wife and children against wild animals. He developed his skills as a sharpshooter. He learned to ficus on one thing And to determine how far or nearby things were. As a result, modern men are unable to listen closely. But they are good at reading maps. During the hunt, the women stayed together. They worked together in caring for the children and collecting food. They kept getting better and better at looking after others and doing more things at the same time. It went on like this for hundreds of thousands of years. Based on: Allan and Barbara Pease, Why men don't listen & women can't read maps, London 1999"
