HEARTWARMING: these 450,000 children living in poverty saved up all the benefits their parents got and game them to three pensioners with £2m houses in fulham so they don’t have to sell them and settle for a £1m house

The photo from the cover of Last Christmas: Andrew is on the left of the photo, dressed as a reindeer. George is on the right, dressed as Santa and juggling presents. Snow is falling.

Tomorrow we're launching our annual #LentoAdvent fest.

It's a celebration of places and a chance to reflect and share some of the things you've seen and heard this year.

From neighbourhood walks and garden observations to days further afield, please join in. Let's fill Bluesky with quiet beauty.
Graphic - 24 days of Lento. Share sights and sounds from places. A new theme each day.

Hi there! We’re not ‘device hoarding,’ we’re paying for groceries and healthcare instead of buying new phones every year, hope this helps your cold dead heart

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

SUPERBATOBER 08: OTTER -- Batgirl finally has her own pet sidekick and it's an... otter? Really thought it would be a bat. But gotta listen to the prompts! Regardless, Supergirl seems pleased. Streaky seems curiously apprehensive.

poem that my dear friend @arcanumb.bsky.social wrote & published this week ❤️‍🔥🏳️‍⚧️
THE TRANS AGENDA IS TO KEEP MY F*CKING FRIENDS ALIVE sol rios At 2pm and 2am. Sleep, I remember you. Please, wait for me. I send out 7 reminders to eat a day. Like little paper lifeboats. It's nothing. And it keeps me afloat. I forget to eat too. I need company for my shot. 3ml of Estradiol over facetime. I tell my friend I'm being a baby about it, she says woman up. Daylight savings swallows up the hour in question. I was going to sit in the bathtub until you responded. And I need you to keep you alive for me. Just until Thursday. Just through to 6 am. I can send you 14 dollars for soup. I can lend you my ears. You'll need both hands to hold a heart. Your razor clinking against the counter. In a dream I almost slip into, I reach through the phone and hide the blade in my open palm, before you notice. Text me, I say. In the morning. I love you. I need you alive. We can figure out the rest tomorrow. With or without sleep. With or without the light of the morning.

Best bit of The Running Man? When the audience made the bloke on his phone leave the auditorium.

Sadly that wasn’t in the film.

My cartoon for this week's @newscientist.com
Panel 1. Scientist making a presentation to the board: "We have developed an exciting new technology that will allow the company to make a much better product at no extra cost!" Panel 2. Board member 1: "Could we use this tech to make our current product more cheaply?" Scientist: "In principle, yes.... And pass the savings on to consumers?" Board member 2: "Haha. No." Panel 3. Board member 2: "How about we make a worse product, with a higher profit margin and just use the tech to make it seem exciting and new?" Scientist: "Um..." Panel 4. Board members: "I'll take that as a yes!" "High five!!" Scientist: "Sob!"

I’m not doing Black Friday this year.
I’d rather be honest with you than try to compete with big brands.
Every purchase genuinely makes a difference to my tiny business.
Shop independent this Christmas.

www.gailmyerscough.co.uk
I’m not offering Black Friday discounts this year because I’m a tiny one woman business and I can’t compete with the likes of Amazon. What I can offer - unique designs, high quality UK made products, customer service from a real person, a warm and fuzzy feeling because you are buying from a tiny independent business.

Government could start by not going out of its way to screw the entire knowledge work sector. Just spitballing here. Maybe back your creatives when they say they've been ripped off by huge tech firms instead of finding ways to give our work to megacorps free of charge? I dunno man it's a MYSTERY...
