Thanks, but I won't be embracing the "AI revolution" and neither will anyone else I know.

Genuinely think Noah Hawley's Legion is one of the greatest and most underrated TV shows of all time. It's a slog in places, but if you stick with it to the end the denouement is sublime.

Cartoon for St George's day by Stephen Collins for the guardian. Script as follows:

Scene is outside a cave, ST GEORGE in armour etc is confronting the DRAGON while the CAPTURED PRINCESS looks on.

DRAGON:
So let me get this straight.

DRAGON:
Youโ€™re hoping to reinforce โ€˜helpless princessโ€™ tropesโ€ฆ

DRAGON:
By publicly stabbing an *endangered animal* to death with a *sword*โ€ฆ

DRAGON:
So you can force a whole Syrian village to convert to Christianityโ€ฆ.

DRAGON:
And become a nationalist icon for a colonial stateโ€ฆ

DRAGON:
Through the cultural appropriation of ancient medieval dragon myths.ย 

DRAGON:
Youโ€™ve not been *online* very long, have you?

GEORGE:ย 
I have been quite surprised by the comments.

GEORGEโ€™S SOCIAL MEDIA ASSISTANT [who is filming this encounter on an iPhone]:
I told you itโ€™s problematic, George.

DRAGON:
Problematic? Itโ€™s a *bin fire*!

DRAGON:
OK. Hereโ€™s how you turn this round -ย 

CUT TO a YoutTube post called โ€˜MY JOURNEY (An apology)โ€™. GEORGE is crying to camera, Dragon in background.

GEORGE:ย 
I am *so sorry* guysโ€ฆย

This is especially for my MP #PeterKyle (Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology) who has been suspiciously quiet on copyright theft by AI corporations, and is very much in danger of never being voted for again considering how many creatives live in #Hove.

Calling on the UK Government to #dothewritething in regard to the using of authors' work without permission. Don't weaken copyright laws in favour of big tech. Stand by creatives. Most of us are paid little enough for our work. Don't make it any worse.

Never thought Iโ€™d suggest political assassinations and armed insurrection as viable solutions, but here we are. Only problem is thatโ€™s playing right into their hands.

Eventually there will be uprisings in the streets which will give Trump the excuse to declare martial law and put the entire country under a dictatorship. Europe now has to defend itself as USA is now a spent and broken force (as was the plan all along). 2/3

Ok, so America, you know how this is going to play out now, donโ€™t you? The current administration has just admitted they are a Russian puppet state and will continue to wreck the country in as many ways as possible (including tariff wars). 1/3
