  #ThreeGoodThings 1. Mari Mathias & Angharad Jenkins last night at the Taliesin. So much good musical energy. 2. Music adventures continue: looking forward to Jethro Tull at Brangwyn Hall tonight. 3. Car passed MOT, largely thanks to a repair I did myself with a little help from YouTube. Am officially better at fixing my rustbox than authorised car dealer service :) @3goodthings

  If you're using AI, you're enabling the fascist empire kill chain. No ifs, no buts, no exceptions. All these companies, US or not, have govt contracts and bailouts built into their endgame plans, and they need you to stay on board long enough to get there. Quit today and never come back. https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/03/02/get-your-war-on-ai-chatbots-in-the-kill-chain/

  #ThreeGoodThings I watched recently: "Re: Poland's Milk Bars" on Arte TV. A documentary on cheap eateries in PL. I had no idea of the roles they play. "BTS: The Return" on Netflix. Creative process on steroids. Fascinating. Artemis II launch on YouTube. Once a space nerd, always a space nerd :)
