Do you trust all future governments?

The Brit Card: Nobody asked for it, it wasn’t in the election manifesto, it’s unclear why anyone would want one and the malicious uses for it are obvious, and loads of people hate the idea, but you know what? *Fuck you*, that’s what. We’re in charge. Fuck. You.

Without further ado, here is the trailer for Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile. Against all odds, it will air in select theatres on October 2nd, along with the theatrical debut of Sex House. Tickets go on sale tomorrow. And, yes, this is real.

Forget everything you already know about America's most notorious dead person. Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile is in select theaters October 2.

SILENT HILL f

What a good movie that was. I wonder if they ever made a sequel.

sucker punch delivers a memorial wreath to charlie kirks gilded tomb

Just a heads-up, these accounts are popping up now. The 4 or 5th one that I've blocked since yesterday, 2 tonight. Very similar bios, only 1 post, and it's a starter pack. Fishy as hell and probably some kind of disruptor/scam b0t farm.

new scam going around where they hire you for a job but pay you less than the value your labor produced

Beano comic proves, if there's one thing kids like, it's references to Chinese philosopher Zhuang Zhou born 369 BC. Art by @geogantart.com Script by me.

It's not doing big traffic but I'm really pleased with my Baby Steps review vid, really blessed to have a boss who values creativity. A lot of folk assumed that becoming an IGN brand meant having the personality stomped out of us, but it's not been like that at all www.youtube.com/watch?v=U871...

The thing about Labour levelling up and giving money to ‘smarten up town centres” is that you can paint a shop all you like but if people have no money to spend in a shop because their bills are too high and shopkeepers can’t afford the rent then your town centre will remain desolate

I never expected to get an existential gut punch from The Beano… 😔

me vs my egg eating neighbour

still play this in my head at least once a day

i think a lot of the whole gen z hates sex scenes thing can largely be boiled down to "generation that lives with parents doesn't want their parents to walk in at the wrong time"

For-profit age-verification providers are now pushing for "continuous biometric monitoring" — AI scans of your face, your voice, your behavior — while you're online to protect children. Every session. Every website. Every keystroke. Monitored and recorded.

“Even though it was awkward and not the right time in the political cycle” 🤔

Amazing.

lmao. see, people hate on "defund the police" because both political parties dragged it, but they still support what it actually means

Oh no I stayed up late enough to start seeing posts about Keir Starmer

Still my favourite moment from Spaced. youtu.be/CUH9TDSO5es?...

There was a good bit on the Times podcast when Get In came out, where Rifkind says: So if what you’re saying is true, then all of that stuff the left said about how there was an organised wrecking campaign inside their own party - that was correct. The lads huff and puff, and say Uh, not exactly.

"I let my principles get in the way of things. I punched a bloke in the face once for saying Hawk the Slayer was rubbish." Channel 4 aired the first episode of 'Spaced' on this day in 1999.

ALL statistics support this - the more a country invests in a child, the younger the more, the better economic and health outcomes are for the said child and by extension - the country then, too. It's a no-brainer.

Sublo and Tangy Mustard is a gem of a webseries and absolutely worth your time.

Colleague used ChatGpt to delete duplicates from a couple of edit decision lists last night. AI couldn’t even do that simple task properly.

I wonder whether there’s any notable overlap between very rich men being enraged at being publicly and truthfully accused of committing sex offences, and TV and newspapers suddenly filling up with terrifying, screaming horseshit about The Left destroying freedom? Somebody should look into that IMO

Again, I note the huge overlap between 1) cancel culture terror about supposed totalitarian speech rules of the left, and 2) very rich, powerful men being enraged to discover that social media could be used to accuse them of the sex offences that they have in fact committed

Remember during COVID when Starmer said it wasn’t the time to discuss UBI?

Landlords: "well hold on a second >:("

Do we really think the world’s richest men threw their weight behind Trump because they thought he’d be good for the economy? They’re consolidating their power over those they don’t even consider people. If workers can survive without their wages, their wealth and power decrease and that won’t do.

Ireland just released a report showing the huge success of the unconditional basic income it provided to artists. Each $1 spent led to society gaining $1.39. Artists' earned incomes went up more than their side job incomes fell. And they were happier and used less welfare www.gov.ie/en/departmen...

How else can you force people to generate massive profits for you through their labour if they don’t have the constant threat of homelessness and starvation over their heads?

Games leaning into explicit gambling mechanics and all the tricks of the gambling trade seems like the natural endpoint of a certain strand of game design obsession to me, it’s got all the hits, endlessly replayable, addictive, juicy and numbers numbers numbers. The Perfect VideogameTM

We found it. You thought it was a myth, but we found it. The Ideas Landlords.

Ofcom officials wanted anonymity an article about the rollout of the Online Safety Act. Tell me someone sees the humor in government officials demanding everyone sacrifice their privacy to access porn/social media, while asking a journalist not to even share their name.

Such a shame that the new atheism of the late 00’s missed the boat in arguing against theocracy in favour of telling feminists they’re wrong actually.

Last one on Farage setting the terms of debate atm: he's by all accounts *the* major face of the primary policy change of the last five decades in the UK (we were told without a doubt that even if you don't like it, you have to respect his role in it) and he's never asked to stand for how that went

I know we’re all going to ”paracetamol? Really?” about the latest Trump announcement but it’s yet another big lie to conceal what they really want to do. Neurodivergency is not allowed under capitalism.

The Trump administration is laying the groundwork for neurodivergency to be a “deviance” and soften the public up to accept concentration camps.

Anti-autism campaigner, Karen Hoyland, 40, commented: “I love my child but I hate his autism. The other day I came home to find him lining up his guns, instead of playing with them like a normal kid.”

This story is worth a read, but it's so frustrating to see, since I know virtually everyone quoted in it (and the author) and ... there were *lots* of people warning of these coming dangers. Andreessen became a baby about his feelings long before taking offense to the slight from the Biden admin.
