I'm not under the illusion that I live in "the greatest country in the world" but when Americans mug off Britain I just have three things to say:
1. Our supermarket sandwiches are undefeated, American food is BAD.
2. Our wall plugs are undefeated, North American plugs suck.
3. Day. Month. Year.

Once again reiterating that “Doctor Who needs a showrunner who isn’t a fan” is a needless jump when they’ve not even tried “showrunner that’s not part of the same group of 90s fans that have been driving the show since it came back” yet

So I overall liked The Reality War… but got a bit messy in the last 20 minutes and my thoughts on the ending are… mixed
Still, hope the show does get renewed so I can witness Russell’s next drug fuelled fever dream in real time

So, didn’t give my thoughts on Lucky Day, I thought it was pretty good and easily the best Pete McTigue episode
Had a lot of really neat ideas I wish would’ve been spread over a couple of episodes or even as part of a series arc (could’ve also afforded a smidge more subtlety in places)

Collective licence to ensure UK authors get paid for works used to train AI
A pioneering alternative to the opt-out system proposed by the government is supported by publishers and writers and is set to be available for use this summer
UK licensing bodies have announced a “pioneering” collective licence that will allow authors to be paid for the use of their works to train generative AI models.
The Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA) – which is directed by the Publishers’ Licensing Services (PLS) and the Authors’ Licensing and Collecting Society (ALCS), representing publishers and authors – will develop the licence, set to be the first of its kind in the UK. Continue reading...

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.
We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?
Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.

Second near perfect review I’ve seen on the next episode, got my anticipation building big time, very excited
"Fans will be rushing to talk about [Mrs Flood's] appearance in this latest episode, as it leads us to believe that maybe her teases are more connected to what’s going on with Doctor Who in the real world than we have originally been led to believe."

Campaign group Everyone Hates Elon organised protest with car bound for scrap heap ‘to create debate about wealth inequality’
Protective helmets were donned and sledgehammers wielded as Elon Musk critics vented their frustration at the Tesla boss and billionaire by smashing up a disused Tesla bound for the scrap heap.
The public art project was organised by the social media campaign group Everyone Hates Elon. A 2014 Tesla Model S was provided by an anonymous donor “to create a debate about wealth inequality”, a spokesperson for the group said. Continue reading...
