The current system needs to collapse. If it's AI that achieves that, I'm good.

Bit of a broken, messy sleep. However, got up because I had one of those "we'll deliver your parcel" e-mail from Royal Mail. They have 29 minutes to be within the given timeframe...

There is definitely a piece to be written about how someone who was seen as anti-establishment and, to a degree, a champion of the oppressed became such a hateful figure but I'd rather read it than write it. I'm sure someone has it in hand.

It has to be said, Moz did come absolutely roaring out of the traps, post-Smiths. Viva Hate was a great album, the singles came with ace b-sides and when he made his best solo single to date with everyone except Johnny Marr, it felt like he'd really proved himself to be the 'True Talent' of The...

What's interesting is how the right wing have colonised this so quickly. They were dead against sampling, wanting 100% royalties for a three-second drum loop and so on because that was THEIR COPYRIGHT. But now they want to feed everything into their machine without compensation because FUCK YOUR...

A lot of Compulsory Fun in the office these last few days. And you either know or can accurately guess how I feel about that.

Interested in the Julien Baker/Torres album. Bit of a scabby week otherwise.

That RFK stuff is absolutely sickening. They really are the most disgusting people.

Oh, and Elon's human shield is evil. That's worth knowing as you go in.

These are cheering me right up. The shtick is that a Canadian journalist has scammed a 4 year press pass and turns up at The White House to rip Trump's cabinet. Oh, and everyone is depicted using marshmallows decorated by felt tip pens. The insults are superb.

I mean, the commitment that needed for a three-second joke. Total respect.

It's no coincidence that Rowling became a full time terf because her books weren't selling a fraction of what was expected and were getting poor reviews. She now has a cult around here who laud her as a saviour. That's the replacement for the popularity and excitement around the HP series. She's...

She is too insulated for the leopards to ever eat her face. Some of the people she's encouraged will complain when the leopards eat their face but it affects her day to day life not one jot.

This is why people as disordered as her acquire so much wealth - it puts them above consequences. There is nothing that anyone can do to her that has any impact on her life. If no-one buys another book, makes another programme or stocks another sweatshop t-shirt, she is still a billionaire. We...

Nae Easter holidays for me. I think I:ve had one job in my life where we closed for the Easter weekend. Kinda prefer the days in lieu in a way. I've taken a long weekend for next week where I'll stop on the Thursday and come back on the Wednesday.
