walking past the HP gift shop in King's Cross with what could be described as a giant wand sticking out of my bag and just like the licensed merch, this wand hurts trans women

I got a couple of great pictures of a jackdaw as it flew past me.

A jackdaw in flight, its wings raised, against a cloudy blue sky above a building.

a jackdaw in flight, with its wings down at the low point in a flap. It's lit from behind and the sun is picking out highlights on the edge of its wing and light is filtering through its feathers.

Now it's 4! 4 pro-AI accounts have followed me because I made a joke about vibecoding that wasn't obviously derogatory enough The latest had this image as his profile header

Imagine a picture an incredibly stupid man would think was cool. If you're imagining a surfer in a tracksuit awkwardly squatting to rest a laptop on his knees while throwing devil horns and riding a surfboard that says "SAAS" on a massive ocean wave that says "SAS" in front of a half-hearted attempt at a retrowave sun with clouds blending into the waves in nonsensical ways and all drawn in several different art styles then congratulations. Oh and there's a horrible vignette effect. Oh my god one of the seagulls from the background is drawn over the wave making it look like he's pursued by a tiny gull.

Niq @tekf.itch.io · 28/09/2026

aw... an AI bro-girl (AI sis?) followed me because she didn't realise I was being snarky about vibecoding if only I'd had a tone indicator BLOCKED

Bluesky notifications that I was followed by "Apps and Frappes" (it doesn't even rhyme what are we doing here?) and she replied "Okay, but a 'flirting allowed' button on Bluesky? My DMs would either be wild or blissfully empty, no in-between." crying-laughing emoji

I dreamt that bluesky had buttons to indicate what kind of replies you wanted, if you were open to flirting, snarkiness, etc, and now i wish it was real someone get to vibecoding that right away

The reason I kept doing a double-take when watching the new Ghost In The Shell (they decided to call nanorobotics "micro machines", i know it's in the manga but you could translate that to modern terminology, i keep expecting miniature cars)

the more unfinished projects you have the better. the bigger your graveyard the more strange zombies you can sew together from the body parts. do not feel self-conscious about it. just keep making.

I take a totally hardline political stance which is that anyone who makes a phone call in the quiet coach of the train should be fined £500 on the spot for the first offence. And for the second offence? Death.

i think one big factor (among many) as to why AI has had such a foothold in coding spaces is because the majority of people dont consider programming to be art

I love it when there's clouds like this because it makes all the cars look like they have Gran Turismo 1's reflection maps

Photograph of several cars in a car park under sky with a thin layer of very uniformly "lumpy" clouds. The lighting conditions and strange cloud pattens make the reflection on the car look unusually bright and kind of fake.

The autism assessment forms keep asking me to agree/disagree with compound statements "I can do maths but it takes me a long time" agree / disagree "I can do maths" - agree "it takes me a long time" - disagree so what the hell do I put?! ugh
