I think overall the benefits of IT outweigh the costs. But then I have had previous IT advice from @sirmichael.bsky.social , so maybe I am biased.

The publishing industry is in decline. Some say it's because of changing market dynamics. Others say it's because of technological disruptions. But the truth is it's because they refuse to publish my lovely book of Heartwarming Stories for Children.

Maybe there’s a nostalgia about the “simple solution” parties, in that they remind you of how thick everyone used to be. Maybe they remind you of being a baby. Thinking lovely simple things. Smashing a plastic hammer on some wooden pegs. Shitting yourself. All that clarity. Ignorance as bliss.

To humanists, the universe doesn’t come with built-in 'meaning'. But that isn’t a cause for despair. Instead, it’s a reminder that if meaning, happiness, purpose, and love exist anywhere in the vastness of space, they exist here on Earth – because we create them. #Thatshumanism

Israel bombed a hospital. Rescue workers and reporters rushed to recover the dead and the wounded. Israel bombed the hospital again. Live on TV. Read that again. Our government’s legacy will be its complicity in crimes against humanity. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

Don’t you just love water privatisation? No reservoir built in the UK for 33 years even though we all know global warming is making the UK drier. £73 BILLION leached off by shareholders. UK governments, Tory and Labour, did this to us. And they’re are still enabling this incredible scam.

Irrespective of the hideous motivation and ostensible purpose -essentially just a distraction- bear in mind that the total actual real-life dollars spent on construction will be a tiny fraction of this number. The rest? Trousered. It’s corruption. All the way, and fuck all those who get in the way.
