"Science fiction lends itself readily to imaginative subversion of any status quo. Bureaucrats and politicians, who can't afford to cultivate their imaginations, tend to assume it's all ray-guns and nonsense, good for children." - Ursula K. Le Guin (2012) [Anthology idea: Ray-guns and Nonsense]

I strongly feel that, in the same way that products must be labelled with the country of origin, everything which contains or has been influenced by AI at any stage should be clearly labelled as such so that those of us who wish to avoid it on principle can do so

All HP Lovecraft stories begin like “I will try and relay the events as best as I can manage, though what I encountered that September night may not be able to be expressed in human language, nor be comprehended by the human mind” and then the story boils down to ‘I saw a building that was large’.

My cat Bobbie just stole a piece of lettuce from my salad and tried to eat it. She then spit it out in disgust and looked at me like it was my fault. I don’t have a photo of her with the lettuce, but here is one of her yesterday looking real guilty when I caught her sticking a dirty paw in my tea.

The funniest thing about the new showerhead installed in the bathroom is that it's too low for my dad and I because the bath was higher than expected. There's a point where you just give up and we're there

I’ve been hacked over in the other place, which in one way is rather a blessing. The process of trying to sort it out is, however, exasperating. This tweet (which a friend screenshot and sent) did make me laugh though, so that’s something!
