Tesla investing in xAI is in limbo due to many abstentions to the vote. xAI's survival is more crucial to Musk than his $1TR bonus award. I removed the paywall from a 9/26 report on this given today's tepid response. Musk may need to sell some TSLA to fund xAI. open.substack.com/pub/bradmunc...

When I was a teenager I thought the BeeGees song "Staying Alive" established a very low standard for navigating existence. Now I get it. 🥺

UK's debt to GDP ratio is 90.5% Quite low compared to others. Japan is 235%, no one suggests Japan is bankrupt. share.google/images/XhqcS...

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system. Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

Good grief

Farage, who was paid £189,000 in January to promote gold bullion in his spare time, is currently wanging on about how out of touch the Labour frontbench is. Ok

Peak performance #MountainMonday

The Phantom Menace is basically Brexit

Okay, so: once you’ve nicked £90m in assorted crown jewels from a national museum, I think it’s safe to say you no longer fall into the “petty crime” category even if you haven’t previously been noteworthy in your field. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

If you give Musk money through his businesses this is what you enable. Vicious lies about our country designed to stoke hate and division.

It’s the season

Is there anybody that doesn't think that Starmer's Labour Party's comms team is anything but a clusterfuck of utter incompetence that has no fecking idea about messaging?

“With 470 trees planted and 4,000m2 of nature in the heart of the 14th arrondissement, the Place de Catalogne has been radically transformed in 2024!” — Paris Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social, continuing the green transformation of central Paris. Greening, cleaning and cooling the city for people.

I don't know if this is right or not (I doubt it) but it does make me think that more people staying in is the last thing society needs. Between the internet, cost of living and the legacy of lockdown, we have a leaving-the-house crisis that manifests in everything from mental health to politics

Reform UK is a far-right party. There wouldn’t be any debate just a few years ago. But the fact there is now shows something very worrying about the direction our politics is heading.

Just look at the joy in that child's eyes. Woke stopped this.

Bromsgrove South (Worcestershire) Council By-Election Result: 🔶 LDM: 51.9% (+20.3) ➡️ RFM: 33.4% (-1.5) 🌳 CON: 11.3% (-5.8) 🌹 LAB: 3.4% (-4.1) No GRN (-5.5) or Ind (-3.4) as previous. Liberal Democrat GAIN from Reform. Changes w/ 2025.

Reform vow to slash jobs in Whitehall by 140,000 plus* While simultaneously creating more work for the civil service REform UK just copy any idea the US Republicans have, vote Reform get UK Trump *There are just over 10,000 people working in Whitehall

"Go back to your constituencies, and prepare for government!" - David Steel, Liberal Party conference 1981. The SDP-Liberal Alliance was polling over 50% at the time. The Alliance won 23 seats in the 1983 general election.

Folks, I'm looking for a huge favour. We (Transform Wales) are making some stickers to go with the book. There is one that is screaming out for a very specific style outside of our brand. None of us are graphic designers. Would anyone be up for helping design it? Will share details via PM. TIA

Over 5% of the Reform councillors elected in May have now either resigned or been fired. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Given the party's refusal to act on Pochin's brazen racism, it should be as socially unacceptable to vote for Reform as it was in the early 2000s to vote for the BNP. And we should be prepared to say this to people's faces.

The state of U.K. media. The Times was once the organ of public record.

Do populists always crash the economy? “On average, after 15 years, gross domestic product per head tends to be 10% lower in countries run by populist leaders than in similar economies with more mainstream regimes” www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

I see these sort of questions all the time. It's clearly not understood that the Right own virtually all of the media in the USA and the majority of it in the UK. The BBC was a voice in the UK but the Tories stuffed the management with right wingers and BBCNews might as well be owned by Murdoch.

"Reform wanted to pull off another by-election victory but came second to Plaid Cymru [who won]. We'll speak to Zia Yousaf [and nobody from Plaid]." -Trevor Phillips. Fuck off Britain.
