Now think about what it’s doing to our children that some teachers are relying on it to develop lesson plans that no one is fact- or bias-checking.

The transcript of Trump's UN speech is wild. "All I got from the United Nations was an escalator that on the way up stopped right in the middle. If the First Lady wasn't in great shape, she would've fallen. But she's in great shape." www.rev.com/transcripts/...

I went to see Seven in the cinema on Tottenham Court Road on a crisp, clear, bright January afternoon. When I emerged two and a half hours later, it was dark and wet and police sirens filled the evening air. The world had turned to shit

So the university that nurtured these bullshit artists is now giving every student access to a bullshit machine. Seems fitting

As inappropriate as inappropriate can be

No one has mentioned Dear John (UK version). I can only conclude that it is a sexual problem

So glad we gave this hateful goon the time of day

I’d go further and say that Putin’s invasion of Ukraine it is the worst blunder in 21st century statecraft. While it may be in Putin’s immediate personal interest, how is the loss of life and alienation of democracies in Russia’s national interest?

Britain showered Trump with all the pomp it could muster. What did it get in return? #GI5052 #GI7037 #statevisit

We all remember that long-running war between Aberbaijan and Albania, right?

Great long take in the piano concerto scene closing Hangover Square (dir. John Brahm, 1945), with a wonderfully realistic score by Bernard Herrmann

King Charles weaves the defence of Ukraine into his speech at last night’s banquet, before stroking Trump’s ego as a peacemaker #statevisit

When did Trump do his Hannibal Lecter bit?

"I shall now read excerpts from the Epstein list..."

All of this so he can continue to tax our steel and cosy up to Putin

"So how do you guys fight wearing those things?"

Well done to The Guardian for reporting on Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (who calls himself Tommy Robinson for some reason - why?), in the correct manner. He is a nasty little criminal shit and every broadcaster should preface their comments on him in this fashion www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Oh look, another Guardian AI puff piece. Do you remember when we used to recognise that concepts are contested? None of the things recommended here will offer the payoff in learning and intellectual development that comes from reading a peer-reviewed article www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Er, the words may have been appropriated and mis-used in various ways but being Anti-Fascist is good, actually. And brave. And, who could have believed it?, still necessary.

Unless a blue-and-yellow-clad Charlie is going to berate and tutor the orange wannabe despot for 15 hours over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and stand over his shoulder while he signs the necessary executive orders to punish Putin, I too would rather this state visit not take place

Member of AI institute says universities need to embrace AI. Who would have thunk it?

I just woke up from a long nap, can someone tell me if Trump has already apologized to the nation for falsely blaming the Kirk assassination on the left when—as with both his assassination attempts and 85% of political violence this century per the data—it was a far-right nutjob?

I slept very poorly in what was formerly my brother’s bedroom, which Dad turned into his study after we’d grown up and left home. This morning, I rolled over and discovered on the nearest bookshelf the source of my discomfort.

‘You, Boy! This is actually NOT my house, It’s my girlfriend’s. I misspoke.’
