Mohammed bin Salman wins FIFA Press Freedom Prize.

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social @iandunt.bsky.social it’s comforting some things don’t change, like the NYT editorial policy of cozying up to authoritarians..

The cancelled TV show you’ll never stop thinking about

@helenlohara.bsky.social I mentioned “Pillion” to Mrs B. She is now angry with me on two points; 1. She now associates her favourite Skarsgard with Chislehurst, an area which she dislikes for good reason 2. Her favourite Skarsgaard was in Chislehurst when we weren’t. Please advise next steps. 🙏🏻

Longlegs is fine. It unravels in the third act when the seemingly extraneous main character trope strikes again. Disappointed.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... - my new article, if of interest please share.

Adversarial Poetry there with their new release. They’ll be touring the Bay Area in the coming months. Next up, The Fall.

The seemingly superfluous extra character did it.

Quite liking Billy Corgan’s transformation into your genial rock star great uncle.

The Venn diagram people who hate The Last Jedi and the people who love AI is almost a perfect circle.

The Kneecap movie is good.

HAHAAHHAHAAHHAAA Anthropic has posted two jobs, both paying $200K+. FOR WRITERS. (Looks like a policy/comms hybrid.) ANTHROPIC. IS WILLING TO PAY HALF A MILLION A YEAR. FOR WRITERS. Whatsamatter boys, can't your plagiarism machine make a compelling case for you? LOL. LMAO, even. #AI

Some very interesting* takes on AI and the law recently, but I’d argue that the equivalent of vibes has a much longer and richer history in the law. It’s called Equity. (*not interesting)

A movie you've seen more than seven times with a gif

Not big or clever but absolutely f**king ridiculous fun.

But M04R A1!!!!!

He is nothing without Pino Palladino’s fretless bass. There, I said it.

The Uk government today announced they will only allow “mid” tankies to enter the Uk in an overhaul of the immigration system.

Oh look, Rachel Reeves has always been an ableist POS

“Again and again we were told the only way to beat the Republican Party was to become the Republican Party […] and the choice that we made was to stop listening to those experts and to start listening to you” Mamdani is so good at this

Fight Club, but big tech data centres rather than credit companies.

Y'all I marched against the Iraq war and in the March for Women's Lives and um, this is a very pleasant stroll with funny signs. Fascists are such scared lil bitches smh

New to the middle aisle.

“Are Cybertrucks exclusively driven by the most divorced men of all time?” If the first line were a headline it almost certainly break your law @ianbetteridge.com futurism.com/advanced-tra...

RealTalk; if you’re in technology and think this is smart or insightful, you need to have serious look at yourself and career choices.

listen. when dolly parton’s sister says it’s time for us all to be prayer warriors for dolly. you fucking pray for dolly

FWIW I don’t think the Digital Safety Act goes far enough. There should be fines of £1m per unverified user pa on social media site and the sites should not be able to delete the users, rather they must find and verify them at their their own cost.

Trump's EO's should just include a Venmo link so that CEOs can immediately put in their bribes.

@simonpegg.bsky.social this is the standard for poppy season, anything less is unacceptable.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

The most dangerous forces in the world are Evangelical Christians and Racist Dudes with daddy issues having access to vast amounts of Capital.

Just a note to all the Americans, no matter what you're seeing over there, we don't like your President. We don't want him here. He has been 100% kept away from the public here in UK & that's why it all looks rosy. They know allowing him to be face to face with British public would be messy. 1/3

Make a band singular Monodeath

jay— you let this platform be brigaded by outside actors in order to explicitly go against your own stated terms of service. you silenced journalists. you predominantly silenced trans & POC voices. there is no justification for the actions of your “mod team.” any moderation professional knows this

We have an exclusive look at it

Reasonableness of tone is not the same as reasonableness of position, kids. Misogyny, transphobia, racism are still alll of those things even if delivered with a smile or an RP accent.

Is there a dril tweet about the 2nd amendment?

Pro Second Amendment folks, right now

Dear USA Deploying troops against civilians will not go well. Yours Great Britain and Northern Ireland
