Zia Yusuf has listened to numerous people in the #bbcqt audience telling him they are fine with, and even welcome, immigrants. He had one person tell him directly to stop talking about immigrants...and STILL Yusuf is banging on about them. Read the room mate - get some proper policies.

If anyone tells you googling stuff for novels is exciting, I just had to look up different terms for concrete with gravel in it

Arts degrees are only “worthless” because tech cunts revalued the highly desirable product of freelance artists at close to zero, cos it made running the digital supply pipes look cheaper on the spreadsheets. Pay properly for the arts, and see how worthless artists are.

A great reminder that no matter how clear you think you have made the meaning of your work, there will always be avid fans of it who nonetheless miss the point entirely.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

One thing I love about Southampton is how its history constantly catches me offguard - like what do you MEAN the Richard Parker boy who was eaten at sea lived a few streets down from me?
