The Labour Party’s women’s conference on 26/9/26 was an embarrassing farce, with only 200 delegates of the 1,000 normal attendance (no major unions) in protest of the Labour Party’s shameful abandonment of trans people following the legally absurd ruling of the Supreme Court in FWS in April 2025.

Wales has stopped ALL gender affirming surgeries! Schools have just declared an end to social transition and inclusion for trans kids. I do not think enough people are paying attention to how utterly and quickly trans rights have been stripped away in the uk!

I cannot stress enough: the AI bubble has already popped it is just being kept on life support by corporations trying to squeeze even a dollar more out of their shit investment, and tech bros doing the same before abandoning their shit company startups. keep hating on AI, you're winning

There you have it.
so, (barely) reading between the lines of what Twitch's staff said:

1) they were forced by Amazon to add the AI training setting and to make it opt-out, because the overlords know perfectly well there's no reason anyone would ever opt-in

2) the actual Twitch staff who run Twitch do not like this and are of the same mind about it as all of you

3) Taking the time to opt-out, even if you don't really stream, gives them data to take to meetings with their overlords to prove that Twitch users dislike AI and pushing it too hard will drive people from the site.

Because I've rediscovered my love for my local library, my next read is Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck. The only Steinbeck I've ever read was Of Mice and Men back in school, so I'm eager to dive into some more of his writing!

I think about this quote a lot.
    One big appeal of fascism, if nothing else, was its unapologetic embrace of cruelty. Cruelty towards others, coupled with hypersensitivity towards any slight to oneself.

I finished off Aestred Thurga: Pyre of Faith by Danie Ware last night. It's a great read, and I'll have to check out more of Danie's books soon. Since we've still got a few days before the end of Pride, I'm now reading Nevada by Imogen Binnie. This is one of my favourites and I can't wait to dive in

I think this is why I've never tried to get into The Orville. I've heard that it's good, but I can never quite tell how much of it is an actually good parody of Trek (or even good sci-fi on its own merits) and how much of it is just Trek but we see Captain Kirk getting high

The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.
And our governments are very much the same.

Whenever any transphobic bigot says something transphobic that has to be protected as “free speech” and all the “free speech” protectors faux-indignation comes out. When they ban LGBTQ+ free speech; silence.

Posted this over on Instagram, thought I’d post it here too. I hope UKGE see this and hear us.
It’s undeniable I had a great time, but I’m including this last graphic, and imploring UKGE to take the discontent around AI ‘creators’ more seriously.

As an attendee AND an exhibitor, I am SO disappointed that there is still no official stance or implemented anti-AI policy when other cons, big and small, have them. I still found exhibitors that used AI in their products, and that stand space could have gone to genuine creators that enrich this community with their creativity.

I hope that the existence of two panels discussing the topic of how damaging AI can be (which notably were on at the same time...), and the popular ‘Human Made’ signs that so many exhibits displayed proudly are noted as a sign of just how many people do NOT want AI at this con.

Con-goers asked us about our stance on AI before purchasing.

Listen to your traders.
Listen to your attendees.

This matters.

This is big tech in 2026. It is no longer about building cool apps, useful devices, or worthwhile services. Instead, all big tech can do is desperately take things that worked and slap new coats of paint on them endlessly while shoving in more AI features, ads, and paywalls in a desperate attempt to convince shareholders that they are making big changes as they do whatever it takes to make that number go up.
