[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]

JANET:
Ugh...

LIZ:
What's up?

JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!

LIZ:
Have you tried...

AI peas?

JANET:
AI peas?

LIZ:
They're peas with AI!

[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].

LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas

JANET:
What

LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]

Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?

[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]

LIZ:

Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine

[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]

LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!

JANET:
What

LIZ:
Shut up

LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow

From opening the bag of peas

to boiling the peas

to eating the peas

To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.

JANET:
Is it really necessary to-

LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET

[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:

AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

β€˜Foundation’ Renewed For Season 4 At Apple Apple TV+ has renewed 'Foundation' for Season 4. It had been in the works for some time after the streamer tapped Ian Goldberg as new co-showrunner.

Here's a video that better shows the still of dusk at lake superior. I'm not great at long exposures because I never have space in my backpack for ND filters and 2nd lenses on my daily walks, and had hoped to experience more waterfalls this trip, maybe some other time!

THREAD. My new novel will be published on Sep 11th. You can pre-order a signed 1st edition w/free intl delivery here: blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

All pre-orders MASSIVELY help it get into shops.

IMO it's the best book I've ever written.

At one point, I thought it might be lost forever....

That’s why I’m sharing this storyβ€”and why I’m asking for your help.

So, if you can:
- Share this post
- Tag the FDA and your reps in Congress
- Contact your reps and ask them to urge the FDA to reconsider its decision

(And if you're a journalist interested in writing about elamipretide, DM me!)

Sheriff wants to charge for rescues of β€˜negligent, reckless’ hikers in Skamania County Scheyer said she only wants to go after people if they have been negligent or reckless, causing them to need help from her rescue team.

I know there's a lot going on but I thought I would post about something else today. Like this Sherrif wanting to charge for search and rescue.

This is an old, dumb idea that keeps coming back. SAR volunteers are universally against this idea, and this is why (cont'd)

I left my iPhone in the washroom at the Public Gardens. When I went back, it was gone. Security and cafe staff didn't have it.

This is a monstrous long shot, but if anyone finds it, please let me know!
