Interesting to note that The Home Team were accused of having an artist use AI for their designs. They've released a Fuck AI shirt which is being critiqued for... looking like AI. Increasingly the Witchfinder General approach is not going to work as AI continues to gobble up genuine artist's work

Saw HOKUM today and was pleasantly surprised after (whisper it) not really rating Oddity but enjoying Caveat. I support Damian McCarthy's unending dedication to get people to be as frightened of rabbits as I am.
