I used AI to make an image for my first Spotify release. I typed in ‘dog in Heaven’. Then I got this little guy. Fine, except for the small issue of the number of legs. AI hasn’t got the hang of legs yet! But I left ‘as is’ to demonstrate where that tech is up to right now!

My first song release is now on Spotify! ‘Pet Heaven’, a gently comic song under my artist pseudonym, ‘Dufflife’. Why not have a listen, it can’t all be about Swift and Sheeran? https://t.co/wFRgqor3kD

It’s a philosophical though delicate question. Do pets go to Heaven? If so, is it only some pets? This song tells you everything you need to know! https://t.co/kX4sgElYSZ

ICYMI, which you probably did - unless there are less than 20 folk on X these days. I hate this new algorithm that suppresses the little guys! ☹️ #WritingCommunity

Sad hearing that @VoiceOfAnfield is finally leaving Anfield. I have listened to his championing of fab tunes for so many years. To prove that, the first song I remember him playing was ‘The Air that I Breathe’, by The Hollies! His voice never aged, like some Dorian Gray magic!
