As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

really dumb!

ah fuck. just saw the news

clicked play and it was even dumber than i expected

It was great to have a nice long chat about my new book with Chris Cudby. Got into lots of different topics so should be a fun read!

Walking into the civic and seeing a microphone on the stage

i've said it before but festival crowds are so much worse than multiplex ones

Got so mad about people talking during the movie last night I forgot the guy beforehand being vocally racist about an usher

it's so funny that all it took was calling a chatbot "artificial intelligence" for people to believe that's really what it is. most humans are such fucking marks, man. lethally credulous species.

Radio ad for a product claiming to be “the future of fire”. Goes on to say it produces “real heat”.
