i don’t think we talk enough about the audacity of america taking the word tomahawk from the people it colonised and using the name for missiles it uses when colonising elsewhere

client feedback in the GenAI era

2 panel comic

Panel 1 is titled “Client Feedback (2012)
Red Guy sits at his desk typing on his laptop. There is a bubble on the right hand side of the panel showing his screen.
A small text panel says “and the”. There is an arrow pointing to the bottom of the words with a correction box that reads: “Text is slightly misaligned. Please fix”

Panel 2 is titled “Client feedback (2026)
Red Guy is slouched on chair typing into his phone. His phone screen shows a panel of text that is complete gibberish. This time the correction reads “not alphabet but who give a fuck”

Under a stolen sky (After Attar of Nishapur) #poetry

I fear for every unsolved mystery
and undiscovered secret.
Fire is not freedom,
scorching feathers oily black,
stealing your wings, stealing your sky.
A life can be taken in an instant
but knowledge cannot truly burn,
and though I may never know you,
I hope you know yourself.
I hope you understand
how to fly.

(For the anglophones, this is Persian for “don’t be afraid”)

in an age of AI bullshit, it's now hard to fully trust any videos that say they're from a war zone. the party no longer needs to tell us to reject the evidence of our eyes and ears. we can no longer trust them ourselves.

I'd add that your sentences, carefully written, will work in concert with each other. Longer sentences will help your writing flow, making it feel smoother and more comfortable to read. Short ones give sharpness. You need both. The presence of one will emphasise the other.

"The US-Israeli onslaught against Iran is intended to resolve a 24-year standoff over Tehran’s nuclear programme" that's funny. i thought it was "completely and totally obliterated" during 2025. seems like a plot hole.

i don’t think you need to support a country’s government to agree that america shouldn’t just decide to bomb that country on a whim. it shouldn’t be controversial to say this.

The Iranian government in itself was established, secret police and all, as outcome illegal US interference and support in Iran decades ago. The Iranian people are now suffering evil from the US as punishment for the actions of the US against their grandparents. There is one evil here.
