Also finally sat down and did a site-wide search and replace for all links to the old Twitter account and replaced them with a link to here instead. We will NOT be associated with that site in any way any more.

Your reminder that pressure to curb trans people's rights to use public loos opens up everyone's manner, clothing etc to intrusive scrutiny and potential challenge in our daily lives. History also shows allowing erasure of rights for one group soon sees others targeted. This is not a 'them' issue.

Basically traps AI crawlers and sends them down an "infinite maze" of static files with no exit links, where they get stuck and thrash around for months. Once trapped, the crawlers can be fed gibberish data, aka Markov babble, which is designed to poison AI models arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

J'ai lu, j'en parle : Secoué ! #BryanTalbot livre un récit puissant sur l'inceste. Il se fait superbement le porte-voix des victimes. Une #bandedessinee qui date de 20 ans et aurait mérité une publication avant ça. Bravo #deliriumBD !

Subtle changes in the world of Grandville where the French language has become dominant and English is a rarity. Another beautiful combination of words and art from @bryan-talbot.bsky.social Listen to me discuss this with Alan Fisher in episode 292.
