Is it just me who finds spell-checkers now more of a hindrance than a help? I can't tell you how many times I tell my word processor "Nope, it's fine. Leave that as it is." only for it to go "Hmm... No, I'll just change it without telling him when he moves on."

Wrote a thing today that made my wife cry. Which is always a good sign but a horrible sight.

Today, we're publishing Don't Steal This Book - a (mostly) empty book from almost 10,000 authors, protesting the theft of their work by AI companies.

Every body I have ever seen a lot of has had stretch marks, regardless of gender, shape or status as a parent. You do not need to have been pregnant to have stretch marks. Most stretch marks exist because of other things, even!!!

Watching The Mask for the first time in a long time and you can’t help but see just how influential it’s been on Deadpool.

Out this week! My elevator pitch was Bond but in the Star Wars prequels. But obviously there’s more to it than that…

Help Andy find this game. I love stuff like this.

Police Quest: SWAT (PC) Playthrough
Police Quest: SWAT (PC) Playthrough YouTube video by NintendoComplete

No worries! Just to be sure, Police Quest was point and click and used full motion videos. If you check around 2 hours in, there’s a mission: youtu.be/YmdTvd4kV5Q?...

I’m just thinking, if it’s not that, there’s so many crossovers it could the company or directors made the one you’re after?

I think SWAT was the first person one

Not sure what prompted this but, just to say, I love your work and your genuine enthusiasm for creating. Can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming.

I keep getting these weird Tai Chi ads on YouTube, where an AI potential customer asks an AI instructor about the apparent benefits of their product. Who the hell is paying for an exercise service where the company isn't willing to show anyone real!?

The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

I really, really, really hope a lot of American readers pick up the upcoming collection(s) of Alan Moore's 2000 AD work. They'll get a surprise, I think.

In the blink of an eye, and at a fraction of the private ... First diagnosis, then chemotherapy, now surgery… and more discombobulating than the swiftness of a successful cancer operation was a stark realisation: some people want to sell off the NHS

For the @theobserveruk.bsky.social today the third part of my cancer journey, detailing my operation.

A friend of writers in the #HouseOfLords - thanks to our Chair Tim Clement-Jones for highlighting the need for an #AI license to better protect the work of creators πŸ™

We're keenly awaiting the government's report and economic analysis of #ArtificialIntelligence and #Coypright, due later this month.

On this, fellow writers, what do we all think is essential to a good website? In a newsletter? I need to look into both but can never decide what I think people want to see.

I'll admit I might be biased on that one, as I lost my brother around that time, but I like it a lot. It hits me hard.

We quite often look back to the 70s and 80s to say "Wow, that Director had such an unprecedented run of great films. You don't get that now." Ryan Coogler is currently on a run of five. We don't talk about that enough. He might be the most consistently brilliant writer/director working today.

Just watched An Adventure In Space and Time and they’ve edited in Ncuti Gatwa at the end. Which is kinda cool but then also makes we wish we’d got the same for Jodie Whittaker and Peter Capaldi. Either way, entertaining watch.

Lovely review of the closing chapter of our latest Armitage story by @thecomicon.bsky.social! And brilliant summary for almost all the breadcrumbs laid…

Additional thought, I think it says something about the state of music when the first ep back used a track that’s almost 25 years old. I get it works for this episode but I beg and pray the episodes to come highlight some new talent.

This will most likely be the first Pokemon game I play with my child. I want them to utterly fall in love with it like I did at their age. (Unless they don't want to and then that's cool.)
