Right, that’s it! I’m never buying another fighter jet from Lockheed Martin.

Lost the ability to distinguish reality from satire a while ago.

Lot of alternatives to brainstorm here:
Leering lenses
Voyeur Vision
Stalkerspecs
Pervo-peepers

He’s fucking insane.

Nine games that made me.

The value of a second legislative chamber demonstrated. Repost widely so the UK gov can’t ignore it.

O'Brien was killed March 1, 2026, at the Port of Shuaiba, Kuwait during a drone attack. U.S. Army Reserve/Handout via REUTERS Purchase Licensing Rights, opens new tab LOS ANGELES, March 4 (Reuters) - The Pentagon on Wednesday identified two more soldiers who were killed in the war ​against Iran. The two Army Reserve soldiers died ‌on Sunday in a drone attack on a U.S. military facility in Port Shuaiba, Kuwait that also killed four other reservists. The Reuters Iran Briefing newsletter keeps you informed with the latest developments and analysis of the Iran war. Sign up here. The ​Pentagon said Major Jeffrey O'Brien, 45, of Iowa, ​was killed in the attack and announced ⁠the "believed death" of Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert M. ​Marzan, 54, of Sacramento, California. Positive identification of Marzan ​will be completed by the medical examiner, the Pentagon said.

After Whiskey Pete threw a tantrum yesterday and then Karoline Leavitt attacked Kaitlan Collins because the media reported on the people Trump got killed in Kuwait, note that MOST outlets are not prominently covering IDs of fifth and sixth KIA, as Reuters did.

I am not big on AI anyway, but I am sure as fuck am never going to use Claude for anything now. Anthropic is a murderous company whose products kill children.

Good point well made.

Thomas was raised by books in much the same way that Tarzan was raised by apes but with much less dramatic results. He got his first professional illustration gig when he was thirteen and has been working in the field since then. (Taking time out for meals and such.)

And, for World Book Day, an illustrator in love with books.
really. A lot.

The Impossible Times ebooks are on discount in the UK/US/Aus all month.

I'm very fond of these books (which are not YA). They're set in 80s London (my formative years and place) and have some very loose tie in with my other books.

They're relatively short - give 'em a shot!

Beck: So, George, what’s your take on Iran?
Washington: Where?
Beck: It’s what we call Persia these days.
Washington: Where the carpets come from?
Beck: Well, they’re better known for their oil now.
Washington: Must be a lot of whales there. Excuse me, one of my many slaves needs flogging…

It would be a good death.

Yes on all fronts.

My entire life has been a lie.

A noir-toned background image of a rainy city skyscape, birds flying with a backdrop of smeared neon lights, with a detective standing on a rooftop in long coat and hat with one arm raised. Right-justified text on the image reads "open call for novellas, opens: 4.01.26, closes: 4.30.26." The Ruadán Books logo is centered above the text.
