Need to emphasize that if you tell me you use chatbots to do your job, especially if your job is something creative like writing, I am going to assume that you are probably bad at your job and also gullible and not terribly bright and you should assume I am not remotely alone in that

Cruelty to animals/thinking you’re better than other people because of where you come from or the colour of your skin. So often all part of the same illness, the same attitude, the same misplaced pride and superiority complex. The evil that rattles down the ages as it’s passed from twat to twat.

One of the unexpected things I've learned from my advocacy for trans people is how malignant parts of the State can be, how it can misuse data for positively evil purposes. It's taught me people can't be safe with a digital ID card and so I've signed this. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...
Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards
We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.

These books are free to anyone who wants them. They come from my late ex-publisher. If you want one, let me know in the replies (there are 200 in total).
If you can afford the postage, brilliant. If not, no problem. I'll still sign & post one to you tomorrow.
P.S. Stephen Fry called it "hilarious"

If "AI" was as valuable as they say it is, they wouldn't be selling it to you. They'd be using it themselves in secret to make the next Minecraft, the next Avatar, the next Hello Kitty and then they'd sell that to you.
They're trying to sell you a sick goose, while pretending it lays golden eggs.

If you can, try to fill your life with curiosity, kindness, and wonder.
Also, haunted bookstores, twilight blimp rides, and boozy milkshakes with the old forest gods are pretty good too.

We are now able to confirm that recent reports of a cluster of Farage sightings near Clacton Pier this afternoon, were in fact a raw sewage discharge by Anglian Water.

Good. It is bollocks. Biological sex as a binary is nonsense.
The British Medical Association Resident Doctors are the backbone of the NHS, they look after us all in hospital.
They passed this motion at their conference which pulls the “supreme” court judgement to pieces.
They call it
“scientifically illiterate”
and
“biologically nonsensical”

![Scene is WAITROSE CUSTOMER SERVICES DESK. Behind it is a staff member, whose name we will soon learn is BECKY. She is dealing with a customer, for now out of shot, while talking to her manager on the phone.
BECKY [on phone]:
Yeah, hiya...

BECKY:
Yes I have a customer here who wants to complain about the Easter eggs.
3
BECKY [putting hand over receiver while addressing the customer stood at the desk in front of her]:
Sorry what was your name again?
4
[Pull back to show the customer is a very tall, green-skinned, PAGAN GODDESS, festooned with flowers. Stood next to her is her son, a normal human teenager in a hoodie, who looks mortified by his mum.]
PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre the Pagan Goddess of Fertility
5
BECKY
Sorry -
Your name is Easter…?
PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre.
6
VICKY:
Your name is Easter and you want to complain about the Easter eggs.
7
PAGAN GODDESS:
Sorry love, what’s your name?
BECKY:
Becky
PAGAN GODDESS:
Well, Vicky -
8
PAGAN GODDESS:
If it was you who’d shagged the solar god of the Equinox to give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here -
TEENAGE BOY:
Muuum…
9
PAGAN GODDESS:
….only to have all your efforts totally forgotten by history, you’d have a complaint too!
10
PAGAN GODDESS:
Aisle four is full of products, with no hint of the true meaning of the festival!
11
BECKY:
You mean… Jesus…?
PAGAN GODDESS:
I mean shagging, Vicky.
12
PAGAN GODDESS:
Is it too much to see just a little bit of pre-Christian sex in Aisle 4?
TEENAGE BOY:

Okay but hear me out:
A nighttime bookstore in which the only lighting comes from lanterns, tea is served to all who enter, there is an emotional support owl in each section, and a buy one / get one free sale occurs during every full moon.
