Just to make it very clear where I stand—I am a huge fan of vaccination, it has saved literally millions of lives and is a force for great good in this world

I’m currently in a vaccine trial and volunteer with vaccine involvement work (ask me about involvement!)

It has now been a year since I stopped posting on X. For @spitfirenews.com, I wrote about watching the platform I loved become a conduit for the worst extremism I've ever witnessed. I don't regret leaving. In fact, I wish I'd left even earlier.

I'm glad I stopped posting on X
A year ago, I abandoned my account. It was the right thing to do.

Wow! Just seventy years ago!

My niece is called Rosa…
💖💖💖
On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist

And Will can do better than Mike

Robin has now reached ICON status here

I am still most impressed with Karen Wheeler’s defence of her child

No, no one’s bath is that deep
No, smashing an empty wine bottle is not a good idea for a weapon

BUT she had the right attitude

Hope she doesn’t die

We just watched episode 4 of Season 5 and I’m not going to lie—I was feeling a bit meh with the series
BUT honestly the last few minutes of episode 4 were absolute crackers!
they may fuck up the last 4 eps BUT we will (as a family) always have that moment

Percy, constantly, “Will can do better!”

At last some decent parenting in Stranger Things

well when I say “decent”—I mean at least they don’t just have a breakdown and/or run away from the monster

weapon choice…poor, to be honest

do you have NO KNIVES?
have you not seen Gremlins?

But the spirit was there and I applaud them

I think that “Which seems bad”’ is masterly use of understatement…

This seems really awful, malignant, dangerous…potentially extremely harmful on an individual and societal level

Makes me feel kinda sick
We’re watching a shift where AI simulates the cohesion and reinforcement that used to require an entire online community. A single person can now build a complete parallel reality with nothing more than a prompt window. Which seems bad.

P: Then why are you smiling?
M: Because I know something you don't know.
P: And what is that?
M: I am not left-handed.
P: You're amazing!
M: I ought to be after 54 years.
P: There's something I ought to tell you
M: Tell me.
P: I am not left-handed either.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

If only we had some kind of person whose job it was to investigate the news and present a balanced set of challenging facts. We could call them something like “journalists”. The whole craft could be called a cool name like “journalism”.
