Welcome to the new Section 28. Unofficially implemented by Reform. So angry I could scream right now. As a reminder, Kent County Council, despite Section 28 being taken off legislative books in 2003, as voted for by parliament, maintained their own version until 2010. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I've just deleted a webpage that was annually using the equivalant amount of: - kWh of energy used to charge a smartphone 658 times - CO2 produced boiling 473 cups of tea - kWh of electricity used to drive an electric car 51km The internet uses more electricity than the UK. Delete digital waste.

There's been recent focus on hiring designers from big-name tech companies (lnkd.in/eEjxq8EQ). Their skills are impressive, no doubt. But in today’s climate of cost-saving, organisations need designers with the hard-earned experience of a transformation. www.katherinewastell.com/blog/designi...

"A request made through ChatGPT, an AI-based virtual assistant, consumes 10 times the electricity of a Google Search" This isn't a game. This is accelerated destruction via huge usage of power, water, resources etc. Stop using it - especially for messing about!! www.unep.org/news-and-sto...

AI has an environmental problem. Here’s what the world can do about that.

The sprawling data centres that house AI servers churn out toxic electronic waste and are voracious consumers of electricity, which in most places is still produced from fossil fuels.

Thanks for including this @amymcnichol.bsky.social @allconsuming.bsky.social ❤️ My first love was Oasis. If you didn't like Oasis, this essay is also about nostalgia and optimism, and hopefully you can substitute [oasis] with [your first band]. If you did like Oasis, press play on 'Whatever'.

Friends! We only have a handful of books left. They include good words, 162 pages of munken pure rough 120gsm paper, lots of white space and cute illos. TL;DR: they look and feel nice, and therefore make gorgey Christmas presents. www.ithoughtaboutthatalot.com/shop

Yep I know it is ironic staking claim to an anonymous essay I wrote about shutting up but I've wanted to write for @allconsuming.bsky.social since @amymcnichol.bsky.social started it and after @jo-scho.bsky.social managed to make this readable I am quite proud of it!

This one is written by my GCSE English teacher. A self-proclaimed feminist, he pushed us to challenge patriarchal values and gender binaries in class discussions in the early 00s. He and his classes have had a profound influence on the values I hold today. His essay is terrifying.

Chuffed to bits that an essay I wrote is included in this beautiful book. Each year, @amymcnichol.bsky.social lovingly and expertly curates a virtual advent calendar of things people have thought about during the year. Now marking 5 years with this peak handsome book. Thank you, I'm proud as punch

Loads of appreciation for this blog post - how awkwardness can be a strength.
