It's my birthday, and this bloody hellscape is crumbling. It's REALLY frigging hard to sell books and even harder when social media doesn't function in even the most basic of ways. So today all I'm asking is that if you see this, you retweet it. I have a short story collection

Karen Hao 5. Finally, the piece ends with the reminder that constructing such a filter is continuing work. Not something that can be done once and reused as is. So "AI" has created a new kind of high-risk job, akin to the jobs that follow the creation of toxic waste.

STOP PRESS! I promise that as MP for Uxbridge & South Ruislip I WILL move the hand dryer in the gents’ urinals at the Crown & Treaty to a more sensible position. TO PROVE IT, I have just signed a treaty with the Crown & Treaty, that if I win they will move it. I keep my promises!

FAIRLY. Coutts kept Farage DESPITE his reputation, anticipated the loss of criteria status, predicted his reaction, and STILL treated him fairly. DAYS of coverage over a man having a hissy fit 'cos the private bank had no financial reason to go on stroking his ego. 9/9 🫳 🎤

Wearing sashes that say hands off our tutors & shouting 'no cuts, pay your staff' University of Brighton students showed their solidarity with us at graduation! They hold senior managers in contempt for the attacks on staff. Together we'll win #SaveBrightonUni #brightonforever #ucuRISING
