Time to patriotically drink all the Scottish whisky we can't sell to the yanks any more I think

There are more than two gay men on the island. It’s entirely probable that Matthew’s unnamed fiancé isn’t Stephen. But given there’s already one couple in there, I’m not putting it beyond the realm of possibility.

Tonight’s Kitchen Disco kicking off with a nice bit of the ‘werk.

Give me your Nobel Peace Prize or I’ll kill you.

When you’ve got the Roundtable at 8, but you’ve got to stick it on pole at 9.

I was thinking about that 1980s James Bond movie where everybody's trying to get their hands on a Fabergé egg for some reason And then I realized: It's an Egg McGuffin.

Holy moly, Stephen’s Gulf Oil Jumpsuit. Couldn’t carry it off in a million years myself, but damn.

If Farage wants to present Jenrick as a Reform MP, he could just wheel out any random puffy white guy - it’s absolutely impossible to remember what the real one looks like.

Would anyone else like to blow their entire game up on this show?

Hi, FilmSky - I note that Reznor & Ross are the F-35 pilots in Tron: Arse, and remember that Daft Punk are on the decks in Legacy. Is there a Wendy Carlos cameo I’ve never noticed in the original Tron?

For balance, as I do spend a lot of time poo-pooing suggestions that this or that thing is meant as a Nazi allusion, I should point out here that I absolutely believe that this logo is meant as a Nazi allusion, it’s an open and shut case.

“Deepfake child pornography is fine as long as only adults get to see it” is a curious place for the modern Conservative Party to find itself, but here we are

Archaeologists: D.C. Capitol May Have Once Been Used For Legislating https://theonion.com/archaeologists-d-c-capitol-may-have-once-been-used-for-legislating/

I just found out last night that the $50k enrollment bonus only pays out after 5 years of service, and reader, the laugh I let out when I read that woke the dog from across the house. These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

One thing that unites these people, above all else, is there never ending, self-pitying WHINING. The "very painful things" they wrote were facts that you avoided tax, had to pay millions in fines, hid it whilst Chancellor then threatened legal action against anyone who reported it.

A little statistical tweak, so nobody can say "Ah, but.. " Police fatal shootings per million of population Canada 7.314 France 3. 396 Germany 1.189 Australia 1.920 UK 0.316 US 43.921

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

Getting quite bored now of getting to the end of the first episode of a BBC History show now, and the end credits having mealy-mouthed excuses for the presence of slop. All to provide shots that add precisely nothing to the episode.

starting 2026 off with khorne miku/Miku the betrayer 😌 ✨

I think it's very important that Rupert Lowe's "Million Nonce March" gets widespread media coverage. Critical to amplify diverse voices.

once again we are all tapping the sign

Sometimes you just have to let @lopatto.bsky.social say it out loud www.theverge.com/policy/85990...

I think a lot of people who weren't online and involved in dealing with channers/Gamergate etc. haven't understood until now how deeply depraved the right is this is what they are all like. they sincerely think not just that women/minorities should face discrimination, but that we should die

Is there anyone, anyone at all on this site that is surprised JD Vance is a big fan of the CSAM Generator?

No, Grok hasn’t paywalled its deepfake image feature

I see the traitors are all in a tizzy about potentially losing access to their child porn generator.

Some absolutely masterful displays of piloting happening at the moment, thanks to 30mph sideways gusts.

Happy Big Jet TV day to all who celebrate.

Or to be more accurate, Elon Musk designates his CSAM generator a Premium Subscription feature.

Oh so not only is he responsible, he's directly responsible.

Drinking a “Winter Berry Crumble” from Vault City - lovely fruity sour, with all the tasting notes you’d expect from that title. Like drinking a blackberry crumble. In a good way.

Sovereignty enthusiast Nigel Farage, who said he’d ‘pick up a rifle’ if Brexit wasn’t delivered - Brexit, which so pleased Russia - is against British troops picking up a rifle to defend a nation’s sovereignty from… oh

I knew it was coming. Still hurts like hell.

New moral low just dropped from the protector of women.

Sleeping the sleep of a boy who got up on the side, stole his Daddy’s panettone and doesn’t care about how much he got shouted at.

If you missed this question to Nigel Farage from The Critic's Rob Hutton – and it was over an hour into the press conference – then it was a particularly good one. The answer was... vague.

It's not just the abolition of DCMS. There's a lot to be said for deregulation, but getting rid of Ofcom and the Electrical Commission was also a mistake. thecritic.co.uk/brin...

Getting rid of DCMS meant there was no one in government able to warn the prime minister that creatives can't live off thin air. thecritic.co.uk/brin...

If the UK government had a Culture Secretary, that person would be in a position to take a view about whether child porn on demand was a good thing, or a bad thing. thecritic.co.uk/brin...

You have to laugh really. It’s like discovering that the government believes that “pee is stored in the balls”.
