Less than two weeks away from being FORTY and I *just* realised the OG ‘why did the chicken cross the road’ joke is a death pun.

Fuckssake.

It could do with a bit of paint and some lighting, but: zine box.

Oh gosh… I would quite like to quit Instagram.

Just spotted that they’ve got a little algorithm futzing button (with love hearts for sliders) baked into the reels but of it now and I just want to hurl my phone at a wall seeing that.

Perversely, I'm seeing a lot of postings for copywriter positions via Linkedin, Indeed, etc. -- but they're almost all part-time and/or contract jobs writing copy for AI training purposes. They want people to sign up to train their own shitty replacements.
When the AI boom began, copywriters were singled out as one of the jobs most vulnerable to AI. Now, three years later, I wanted to hear from workers on the frontlines of the industry, to hear what had actually taken place on the ground.

For many, it was even worse than they'd feared.

Copywriters were one of the first to have their jobs targeted by AI firms. These are their stories, three years into the AI era.

Feels like a good time to support @robinince.bsky.social by buying one of his books for Christmas. 'Being Interested: Adventures in Scientific Curiosity' looks good, so I got that one, but he's done a few! www.waterstones.com/author/robin...

This is Charles Clyde Ebbets, the photographer who took the iconic “Lunch atop a Skyscraper” picture. Look at this fearless, dapper fuck wearing spats, suspenders, and a tie 850 feet above the ground. Absolute legend.
Here he is taking the photo.
