this guy is the co-founder of Airbnb

Genuinely mad watching English football Bluesky not cheering on Paraguayan shithousery this evening. It was against the French lads. If Paraguay had been doing this to England Bleuciel would have pensed it trop fucking drôle.

One of my favorite memories from talking to Jadzia about Hawkgirl as she was working on it was when she asked me if there was any precedent for tying Kendra or the JSA to Philadelphia, I said “No, not really,” and then she said “Well, I’m doing it anyway” Go Birds

When I am telling my brother to get his round in

Bwaaahahahahahahahahaaaa www.vice.com/en/article/t...

This dude is dusted to the eyeballs. He's not scoping shit out he's high as a kite and wondering how long until he can go back to the can for another bump. Gnashing his teeth like James Brown lol

I wonder if it matters. It's all the same far right soup at this point. Badenoch's twitter troll style of awfulness is different from Farages matey corruption but what's the difference if either one gets in power?

Sunday Times investigation reports Reform leader received extensive support in year to July 2024 which was not declared on election. From "baby George" Cottrell, the author of 'How to launder money' & convicted in the US for wire fraud but seeking a Trump pardon www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

I've said repeatedly in posts over the last year or so that this relationship was going to become a story at some point. So dodgy.

It's 100% some bullshit that the Disney/Marvel big-budget hero shooter is allowed to go "lol check out this bulge, you guys like huge asses?" while every other website and platform in the world is trying to figure out a way to execute you over the computer if you post a sexy picture online

That picture…

As the director of a historical video game preservation institution, and someone who has dedicated his entire adult life to this cause, this is accurate. We have attempted to work with the industry's trade organization to find a legal path forward, but they refuse to offer a meaningful alternative.

lol Threads banned the new Infowars. Silenced for TRUTH. Everybody go yell at them.

As I noted in my book Elemental (available at all good... etc.), people who believe that secret Deep States can geoengineer the weather also *don't* believe that human activity caused the climate crisis. Go figure. www.hachette.co.uk/titles/arthu...

We can tell Putin must be rattled cos he’s wearing his little soldier costume.

"The Tube was obviously not the work of one man; but if the entire concept of an underground railway has a progenitor, it’s this guy."

To be honest the article managed to convince me that car park solar is a distraction from winning the fight to build real solar farms.

We're investing in national infrastructure. [Threatening]

This is basically every story that I write about London now, you don't have to want to live with Germany bureaucracy to want someone to do very basic checks. And the 'ease of setting up a business' is great (I've done it myself! It was so easy!) but unfortunately it's created scam central nation.

Want to run a fake London estate agency and repeatedly scam people out of thousands of pounds through rental scams? The good news is that for £250 you can join all the official renters' protection schemes and do it with a UK government badge of approval! www.londoncentric.media/p/london-ren...

Donald Trump didn’t know who Ed Miliband was or what the role of chancellor is until asked “do you want the windmill guy to be chancellor in the uk” and Donald Trump no longer knew who Ed Miliband was etc etc after answering the question “do you want the windmill guy to be chancellor in the uk”

Impossible to look at what Ukraine is doing to put so much pressure on Russia now and not remember the restrictions Biden put them under in order to receive aid. They would not be able to wage the campaign they are right now with that kind of "support."

Disapointing.

He heard people call taking the Forest job the dumbest decision he ever made and replied "Watch this".

By speaking out, this Major has likely relinquished his right to millions of dollars of future benefits and entitlements of his service. Health insurance, pension, etc. When Hegseth was threatening Mark Kelly an other veteran members of Congress, that’s what he was after. Not a small show of courage

The only thing I know about football is that the length of a match is a secret kept by the referee I believe referees use this power to confuse predators

I felt like it had to be tried because the rage was getting vectored onto the refs so hard it was ridiculous. Something did need to be done to bleed that off. But there were plenty saying VAR was the wrong way to do it and they were proven correct.

The most amazing part of Peter Thiel being some sort of illuminati maestro is that he’s probably the most sheer example of a slack jawed moron we have

This is why Kate Forbes was unfit to be First Minister and why those who still go out to bad for her are fundamentally awful people. I, as a gay person, have absolutely every right, as do our allies, to decide that your views on *my fundamental humanity, rights and dignity* are of utmost revelance

I try not to be entirely blinded by my own bias but does the fact the new hope of the left felt it had to announce itself on Musk's twitter not offer a big clue as to why it went straight to hell?

Since the hard-won, fragile, and crucial consensus on climate change was unpicked by the right wing, some on the left are happy to join this regressive attack. What does Graham tell her members about failing crops, coastal erosion, and global instability? Tough tits? It is so disheartening to see.

When is DC going to publish an Absolute Unit ongoing series?

Calling Andy Burnham King of the North is convenient for London media wanting a north-whisperer but it's gibberish. 1. Northerners hate each other. 2. Northerners disagree on what The North is. 3. If Burnham conflates Manchester with The North he'll have multiple peasants' revolts on his hands. 1/2

Fucking hell it's getting grim over there. youtu.be/4nYXIeZh_bw?...

"on average, many" is truly legendary math

The UK is such an easy mark. Everything sold off for peanuts.

So I'm told a crowd of about 100 people turned up in Wimborne to protest against Katie Hopkins appearing there. Really impressive demo for such a small town showing the strength of feeling. Well done Wimborne.

There's a peculiarly British problem that stops millions of people from adopting cheaper, greener energy solutions. That problem is leasehold. Excellent story by @oliviarudgard.bsky.social. 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

It's not even having views. She wanted to impose them on others! 'You want to take away my right to get married' is a really good reason not to vote for someone!

Norway is desperately trying to convince Europe to let it drill for fossil fuels in the Arctic - build on a bed of big old lies. "Støre’s claim that all new supply during 2022 energy crisis came from the Arctic, was false, it turns out" euobserver.com/225187/norwa...

🇭🇺⚖️ Some elements of Magyar's aggressive reforms raise questions, but not this one - dissolving a Kafkaesque office run by Orban's former speechwriter, whose only activity was attacking anyone - be it Hungarian media, civil society or foreign NGOs such as mine - critical of the Hungarian government.

GTA Karlach 🔥 Decided to jump on this GTA 6 trend and draw Baldur’s Gate’s best girl #gta #bg3

"Apart from the political views I had, political people were very keen to support me for political leadership, says political person who wanted job implementing political views."

"So, we evoked a demon that can sit between you and all objective knowledge, and it's really useful but you can never quite trust it. And then we made it paranoid it might have it's own demons intermediating access to objective truth." Descartes: "mon ami, I am too fucking high for zis"

Former chef here, for best results when cooking the Meat Wall, obviously, you'll want a layer of ketchup-based sauce over the top, but to ensure an even and moist wall, employ Ina Garten's trick and place a pan of hot water below the wall in the oven.

UK Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy quits TwitterX. This should be the first of many.
