At this rate a MAGA pedophile being sentences will actually happen more frequently than mass shootings.* [ * Currently running at 1.12 per day Jan–May 2026.]

Every piece about the Space X IPO is more infuriating than the last. That Musk can just brush off the mass death and suffering of his DOGE disaster to manipulate the markets some more is a triumph of corruption.

Declaring something to be "indisputable scientific fact" in your constitution can only be because it is not in any way indisputable and also unlikely to be either fact or scientific. North Carolina bill seeks to make abortion homicide. wearethemeteor.com/north-caroli... #Abortion #Law

Dear media, You don't have to say "E Jean Carroll accused Trump of defamation and rape." You can say "Trump defamed and raped E Jean Carroll." It's been adjudicated. Thank you

You don't have to overturn Citizens United to beat it. Corporations only exist because states charter them, so a state can decide spending in elections isn't a power they wield. Not regulation, redefinition. Hawaii made it law. Montana's gathering signatures. More states are watching.

Variety Reporter: “Why should President Trump come see your show?” Actress and singer Patti Lupone: “Well I hope he does not because I won’t perform if he does.” Variety Reporter: “why’s that?” Actress and singer Patti Lupone: “@*!#"

By "done properly" he means if it has to be done at all then do it somewhere we can't see it.

I discover that I can no longer get an appointment with the GP by going to the surgery and asking. It used to be possible although they did run out of slots fast. But now they just don't do it.

Reading various opinion pieces and analyses of the UK youth employment crisis, I have yet to see any honest/detailed assessment of Brexit, and Covid shutdowns as significant contributory factors.

You know what's annoying about things like that? Not the installation. Mistakes happen. But that countless people will now walk past this for years if not decades and nobody will say or do anything about it because it's someone else's problem and their job/responsibility to do something about it.

Washed the mattress cover first thing this morning. It was dry by the time the duvet went through the machine. Now amazingly that is dry too and I've just hung the bed linen out on the balcony. Hot and breezy is the best drying weather. No property values were damaged by this laundering.

Antoni Campañà photo of barricade on Carrer de Bisbe, during the Barcelona 1937 May Days. I read recently this "medieval" bridge is now the single most Instagrammed spot in whole of Barcelona, actually dating from 1928, so would have been about 9 years back old then. Colourised by Catalunyaencolor

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly. www.businessinsider.com/uber-coo-and...
