Bit nervous putting this out there, but here's a little game I've been working on with Codex.

Nothing is surprising about the US starting another war. Nothing is more dangerous to Earth and mankind at large than the United States and its complete and utter failure to curtail the worst excesses of humanity. The US oligarchy and its influence on global politics must end.

In the story of Humpty Dumpty it is never said that he is an egg. However, it is never said that he is NOT an egg. This means that any character in ANY story could be an egg unless explicitly stated otherwise. Keep that in mind when you read a Jack Reacher novel

The Console - or, if you will, THE CON50LE - a book I wrote in 2022/23 and that came out in February 2024. It tells the stories of all the home consoles to have released between 1972 and 2022. It has a PS5 Dualsense controller on the cover as the publisher thought that'd be the most engaging option, rather than anything older. Idk. If I could do it again I'd argue for something else but I'd sort of given up at that point. I was tired, the book wasn't what I'd envisioned it being, it'd taken up so much time and really put family relations on edge due to how much work I'd put into it. So yeah, it selling so poorly obviously burns something awful. A good book, I think, wrapped in the wrong design and never really promoted well enough (some of that / most of that is on me but, yeah, I just wasn't happy with it. Time is a healer?)

Two years since The Console came out.

My lowest-selling book by a fair margin, and the one that took (by far) the most time to put together. But I think it stands up well as a hardware history that finds time to go beyond the US and Japan and spotlight the creative people behind the machines.

And yet it’s even more dumb: Both hospital ships are in dry-dock in Alabama, so they won’t be arriving anytime soon.

This is a weird distraction from the Danes medically evacuating a sick US sailor from a US Navy nuclear sub yesterday 9 miles from Nuuk. What was a sub doing nine miles from Nuuk?

If I wanted a high street with individually owned businesses with well crafted & hand painted fronts I'd probably start thinking about capitalism, landlordism, supermarkets & how the arts are valued in this country (lol at the AI) but what these people really want is a day out to the Beamish musem.

MERLIN: Finally! A "time travel" spell sent me to "2026"! You there, what has changed since my era?

ME: Oh, uh. Sexual morals are more permissive. Two men can get married.

MERLIN: But surely they need not secure such a bond just for hand and mouth stuff?

ME: Course not.

MERLIN: And are you free NOW?

From Jack White on Instagram:
β€œofficialjackwhite This post would basically get anyone, at any job fired immediately...except for arguably the most important position in the world. That's right, trump is a racist, a rapist, a felon, a grifter (currently ordering the US govt. to pay him 10 billion dollars simply because no one will stop him.) and a full on dementia sufferer, and yet he has the power to send in gestapo ICE soldiers to kill our citizens, and so much more dangerously, has the nuclear codes and the ability to end humanity at any moment based on an egotistical whim. How is it possible we've given this evil man so much power? The two party system, the electoral college, the responsibility that the internet has brought to humanity and its direct conflict with truth, and America's obsession with celebrity, are all to blame, but the fact that we aren't stopping it is...insanity. Arrest this man. Impeach this man. 25th amendment this man. Indict this man. Jail this man. This longtime friend of pedophile epstein, who appears 40 thousand times in the files. This demolisher of the White House, demolisher of the Constitution, demolisher of the Bill of Rights, this demolisher of America full stop. It's hard to believe the government does almost nothing about this lunacy and we just all have to sit back and watch as a people.

You know the story about accidentally calling your teacher mum?
Well my mate Rob once went back to a girls flat and after they'd had sex they fell asleep and he, with his arse hanging out of the bed, explosively farted and shit against her wardrobe door.

Unrelated, I know, but funnier.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."
