This is a shocking move even for them. People's homes are flooded and sewage is running down the streets cause of climate change and these clowns are deprioritizing doing anything about it. The only thing they'll do is remove judicial reviews...

Today, Paul Murphy said that the Government are afraid to stand up to big tech, and Micheál Martin replied "How dare you? Who the hell do you think you are? That is a reprehensible assertion."

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

Micheál Martin always looks like he’s using every muscle in his body to not call whoever he is talking to a “peasant”

All of Michael Martin's statements these days are just "we can't deliver flood relief", "we can't deliver climate reform", "we can't deliver transport infrastructure", "we can't criticise the US" What can you deliver What is the point of you

"There was simply no way to plan for this," says guy who ignored everyone urging him to plan for this. Every crisis in this country comes back to the idea it can't be fixed overnight, so we may as well not try at all

The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷‍♂️”

It's almost like this is exactly what people have been saying for the last 5-10 years. Glad we blew up that ecosystem just to circle back to the obvious

Good riddance, Novak Djokovic. Had no business being in that final

Man, it's amazing how much the 38-year-old Novak Djokovic has left in the tank after not having to play a fourth-round match and having his quarterfinal opponent retire while beating him two sets to love

Sinner struggling to beat Djokovic after Musetti was comfortably better than him two days ago has me steaming. Musetti always just that one step away from getting that breakthrough result

We may not live in a just world, but there is at least some justice to Alex Zverev being the biggest choke artist in world sport

Incredible how few politicians there are ready to meet this moment against big tech. Still so many that don't even pretend to understand the issues at hand

me, absolutely not misremembering anything: i could be misremembering that

I cannot recommend doing this strongly enough. Like, in general, for always. I turned off autoplay a few years ago on Twitter just so I could get another video to play and then realised I had absolutely no good reason to ever turn it back on again

"Stealing our work is not innovation. It’s not progress. It’s theft – plain and simple."

If there's one thing I know about us Europeans hating Americans, it's that we never needed an excuse

pretty sure he meant the other thing, grok, but very cool that those are your two things

It’s an absolute stain on the whole league that this is still up in the air

Blindingly obvious in a non-legal sense that City are guilty and should be stripped of achievements I find it very difficult to take seriously any discussion of their titles that doesn't take this into account. Players and managers' careers should be tarnished for cheating

if you ban my child from using his smartphone how is he supposed to do online gambling

I’m actually okay with not winning, they should all be in prison

"I don't think we're talking about love here. We're talking about s-e-x in front of the c-h-I-l-d-r-e-n." "Sex cauldron? I thought they closed that place down."

I'm not exaggerating when I say I've never been more stunned. Am I going insane?

If there was a child porn factory down the road, it’d be closed immediately. The Govt’s response wouldn’t be “hang on, they let us print flyers there too”.

This grok stuff is making clear ONCE AGAIN how badly compromised our democracy is from 40years of FDImaxxing

The only logical conclusion from this now is that the Government here, and governments around Europe, are absolutely terrified of being dragged into another battle with the richest man in the world who is hellbent on their removal; or with his ally in the White House over regulation.

I've got my conspiracy board out again, with loads of statements by the Healy Raes posted on it. When you put them back to back it honestly seems like they want the housing crisis to continue indefinitely. Not sure why, or how this makes sense. Anyway, my next step is to check if they own any land.

"it's essential to rural Ireland" has become a floating signifier you can use to argue against anything, no matter how nonsensical. Banning fox hunting, doing anything at all for the environment, regulating short-term rental I'm sure we'll hear that data centres are essential to rural Ireland soon

Starting off 2026 in ominous fashion by watching back to back 0-0s cause tickets to Marty Supreme were sold out

If you start watching this video at exactly 23:52:30 (without ads), Troy Parrott scores the winner at midnight www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB4U...

Hell yeah, the OBAA hospital escape scene is on YouTube. Everything about this scene - "Batman", Bob's recognition at what the nurse is doing, the music cue, the selfie, Sergio saying "let's play offense" - fills me with such joy youtu.be/JdKcGlAcwf8?...

RIP Isiah Whitlock Jr. We loved all the characters you played, especially as Clay Davis. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4UXJ...

I can't emphasize how depressing it is seeing so many jobs which are just "train an AI to do your job and then, I guess, fuck off and starve?"

I browsed for jobs about a month ago just for the hell of it, and it was page after page of AI trainer-style work. Beyond depressing

this season i’m wishing you and yours a few small holiday cheers

This has the same energy as “The McRib is back at McDonalds”

"this could have been slop, but it's not" is rapidly becoming a surefire signifier of premium-ness

It's exciting that in 2026 we'll have big summer blockbuster movies from Chris Nolan and Steven Spielberg

The first trailer for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is here 👀 In theaters July 17, 2026

Aston Villa are terrible, but those points on the board matter most. No way are they in a title race but that's the kinda weekend that scams them top 4

I've no doubt said this many times but I have so much contempt for TNT's commentary team. So so bad. Almost worse when they do Newcastle games, basically cheerleading them all game

Stan Wawrinka retiring in 2026. End of an era. Not sure tennis will ever produce someone of his talent again and that's a great shame

Cannot remember the last time I saw this man say anything other than moaning about how unfair everybody is to him

“But I keep thinking about mortality in his movies, and I say this, too, in pure selfishness: I hope that I can come to see his death the way his films see death in general.”

We will have about 13,000 in 2025. About half will be allowed stay. I don't think 6,500 extra people in a population of 5 million is a threat to "social cohesion". Not being able to afford a home or to see a doctor or not having to wait 3 years for my kid's needs to be assessed is.

What a racist piece of shit

going down the Rob Reiner rabbit hole and I laughed just as loudly at this bit as I did the first time I saw it

I think it's kind of beautiful that this was Rob Reiner's final line on television

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.
