‘I am one who loved not wisely but too well.’ (Othello, Act 5, Scene 2)

Why folks gotta be so hateful [looking at you, @loanseyjonesy.bsky.social]

Incredible visuals in this report. Heart-breaking and infuriating.

👀

This plus Johnson saying (and then conspicuously unsaying) that Trump was a fed informant against Epstein… Trump clearly ratted him out. The question is why, and why doesn’t he own up to it. Did they flip him…?

This is why Albert Speer is only ever remembered for his keen numerical skills.

Am I the only one that thinks Alex Karp is Kramer?

Insightful piece about American masculinity. G-d bless Mitchell Duneier.

Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments: One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

*your Does it involve making your own coffee at home?

I’ve been rereading Shirer’s Rise and Fall of the Third Reich and there are hundreds of incredibly resonant passages. See this (Shirer quoting from Mein Kampf) for example:

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

What you’re witnessing is a populist assault on the BBC. This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting. iandunt.substack.com/p/extra-edit...

Attention shoppers across the pond:

This looks rather meaningful.

This. I've only thus far heard the LibDems call this out this clearly.

Holy crap. As someone who regularly listens to podcasts while running, this article feels like a kick in the balls. You want to be angry at his guy but have to admit he’s… not wrong.

Your cat when you're choking to death in your apartment

I hate when that happens.

You hate to see it.

Tired: Purple Heart. Wired: Mustard Stain.

Trump v. China: a visual metaphor.

@metronorthcapital.bsky.social @loanseyjonesy.bsky.social which one of you wants to do the honours?

As a conservative, I applaud Labour's messaging. (1 of 3) Consider Reeves' messaging here: you can't have your cake and eat it and we will need to make hard choices. Blames Brexit (true) and austerity (debatable) as policy causes of current hole.

Lindsey Graham's brave, principled stance on the Fuentes/Carlson wing of the party is that it doesn't currently poll well. “I want the world to know antisemitism, anti-Israel rhetoric, anti-Israel thought is not the road to being elected as a Republican. You will lose.”

I'm still stuck on the least mad bit. "These centres will cost $2.5tn to build, according to Barclays, to service an industry that still doesn’t turn a profit. But the maddest bit arguably is how much energy they will require..."

Good. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

At this point Swedes are buying Teslas as collector’s items.

Epstein did not kill himself.

@financialtimes.com is both my most expensive subscription publication and my highest quality ROI.

Not grifty enough.

Very good article. It rhymes for me with this @theverge.com piece that makes the parallel between the mirror test and AGI. www.theverge.com/23604075/ai-...

The Uday & Qusay school of interior design.

New Trump pardon candidate just dropped.

Yikes.

It is a moral failure to continue to provide content and engagement to a social platform that has been weaponised against democracy. Engagement there is what breathes life into that vile platform. It is a collective action problem. You do good by depriving the beast of its oxygen. Disengage.

Andrew will now go by a symbol and will be known as "the dirtbag formerly known as Prince."

Oh no. I've done some research on TikTok and am starting to have doubts.

Update: adding ̶𝙿̶𝚛̶𝚒̶𝚗̶𝚌̶𝚎̶ Andrew to my wish list.

I wish there were a way to mute any and all posts relating to baseball. Or sports, for that matter.
